I WOULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING EARLIER, BUT DID NOT RALIZE I HAD ANY RECOURSE. THE RUBBER SEAL IS SELF EXPLANITORY, IT STARTED ROTTING AFTER ABOUT 3-4 YEARS. THE OTHER IS THE PAINT. ALL THE PAINT ON THE TOP OF THE TRUCK HAS FLAKED OFF, FROM THE HOOD TO THE BED. THE SIDES ARE FINE. NO SAFETY DEFECT LISTED IN SUMMARY. *AK

THE SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY HAS ALREADY BEEN REPLACED UNDER A RECALL. THE PROBLEM IS THAT IT SEEMS TO ENGAGE BUT DOESN'T, AND THEN POPS LOOSE LATER. I THINK IT PERFORMS BETTER NOW THAN ORIGINAL DID BEFORE REPLACEMENT, BUT MAYBE I AM JUST MORE CAREFUL ABOUT TESTING IT. IN ANY CASE, IT STILL REPEATEDLY FAILS TO LATCH PROPERLY. *AK

WHILE TRAVELLING AT 70MPH ON DRY PAVEMENT THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A SLIDE, IMPACT, AND FLIPPED OVER. SHOULDER BELT CAME LOOSE, AND DRIVER WAS KILLED WHEN THROWN OUT OF THE VEHICLE. FROM THE WEIGHT OF THE DRIVER PULLING AGAINST THE SEAT BELT, THE DOOR CAME OPEN AND DRIVER FELL OUT. DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND WAS UNAWARE OF THE PROBLEM. VEHICLE WAS TOTALLED. ALSO, THERE WAS ONE MINOR INJURY. *AK
