“Passenger side rear wheel does not line up with front wheel. Passenger side rear wheel is inward approximately 1 to 2 inches. Drivers side rear wheel line up perfectly with the front drivers side wheel looking from front to back and vice versa. I was informed that this problem could be corrected by installing an adjustable panhard bar if I could find one to fit.”
NHTSA complaint #11090124, filed 2018-04, 382,653 miles“I have three friends that also have late model s-10 vehicles, all of which have had problems with the ball joints. I grease my truck myself(so I know it gets done) every 1500 miles. I was informed by gateway chevy, that all 4 ball joints are bad. After only 48000 miles, I was informed that it just weak parts and they will do nothing about it. Well here we are three days later and a friend of mine, doug kuznia, also of fargo, his 1996 s-10 had it's upper ball joint fail and the front wheel buckled over while driving. I feel that this is a safety hazard and they should install better parts. …”
