1994 Chevrolet S10 Tires & wheels Problems
Owner-reported complaints naming the tire or wheel system, filed with NHTSA
Data refreshed
Tires & wheels reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

THE SPARE TIRE CABLE BROKE WHILE I WAS GETTING ON TO THE FREEWAY. FORTUNATELY I HAD A CHAIN AND LOCK ON IT TO PREVENT THEFT AND IT ALSO PREVENTED DAMAGE TO MY TRUCK AND THE CAR FOLLOWING ME. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST PROBLEM AND YOUR LAST INVESTIGATION WAS CLOSED IN 1999 WITH NO RECALL. I HAVE SEEN THIS PROBLEM NUMEROUS TIMES. DOES SOMEBODY HAVE TO BE KILLED BEFORE GM RECALLS THIS PROBLEM OR WILL THEY CONTINUE MAKING MONEY SELLING THE REPLACEMENT PART FOR ALMOST $70 AND NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR POOR DESIGN?*JB
