Chevrolet Silverado 2000 Complaint

Complaint about LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES : DOORS : LATCH

JACKSONVILLE, NC

Consumer Complaint:
REAR PASSENGER DOORTS ON CHEVY SILVERADO EXTENED CAB DO NOT LOCK COMPLETELY IN TEMPERATURES BELOW 30 DEGREES UNTIL HEAT IS DISTRIBUTED IN THE CAB. HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET AN EXPLANATION FROM ANY GENERAL MOTORS EXPERTS OR RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. I CONTEND THAT IT OCCURS BECAUSE BOTH THE TOP & BOTTOM LATCH'S ARE MADE OF PLASTIC/PVC MATERIAL WHICH PRESENTS A POTEIAL SAFETY HAZARD IF WEIGHT IS APPLIED AGAINST THE DOORS, HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE ETC. THE INDIACATED DATE BELOW IS ONLY ONE OF SEVERAL DAYS SINCE 2000. *AK
