| Rear glass hinge in 2003 tahoe ripping from hinge. window must now be forced sideways to engage locking mechanism to close rear glass hatch. lifting entire hatch effects the glass hinge as well. rt corner of window now protrudes above roof line and i am concerned this will catch during highway speeds and blow off as has been reported previously. local chevy dealership repair facility informed me this is common and they have repaired 2 that week for the same issue. they informed me that their repair statistics do not go up towards chevy corporate for trend and failure analysis. they referred me to the chevy customer service number. chevrolet customer service was called and they conducted a 2 hour investigation to determine hinge defects are normal wear and tear. current costs to repair are approx $1000.00. | |||
