2001 GMC S-10 PICKUP review from North America
"Some major flaws despite little use"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel pump broke after 2 months. Dealer repaired it for no cost. At 13 months, the EGD valve started sticking-nearly causing me to have an accident at the intersection of which this problem first occurred. Dealer said to look at it thoroughly it would cost me about $100, and recommended that I use lower leaded gasoline. the dealer said that this problem was not covered by the warranty after 12 months. I now question the reliability of that statement. I have used lower leaded gasoline and have not had the problem recur for the past 18 months.
General comments?
Uncomfortable seating, but very reasonable for a lower end priced pickup.
Effective and efficient most of the time.
Suboptimal dealer service.
