A fact of life is that parts wear out. every kind of car out there has some sort of inherent problem that the mfg. didn't see coming. true some have more than others. our esteemed main stream media has put down our BIG 3 for years while hardly ever telling us about problems or recalls with foreign made vehicles. And there are 6 people not working being paid by GM for every one that actually goes to work! legacy cost is killing them and that is partly their fault for letting it get to this point...i once sold a chevy van to a freind with 225k on it and he took it to 495,000! a new 350 engine at 90k and 3 transmissions but hey. the body was finally worn out. most of your GM cars will go well over 200,000 with the proper maintenence.

aceace, we sell that same part i think you are talking about for 48.01. we are a 4 line GM dealer. if you buy that through a garage with a tax exempt licence ( or tell them you are a garage and you will pay the tax) you could save $10 or 15 more. i did notice that there is a part-no. change recently on that also. and yes it is a common problem with that cargo door.
