something in the back of my Vibe slid and cracked the plastic panel on the T/Gate.ordered a new one.ya know I thought sticker shock only happened on new car window Invoices.... Good thing I got the GM discount lesson learned:strap down anything, if it has any weight to it, in the back.

considering what the part cost GM, (I used to check price for defective parts when GM broke a part) someone is making a killing. I feel sorry for the average joe who has to pay full price.maybe they are trying to recoop losses from 0% financing LOL

I was taking an empty 20lb L.P. tank down to get a full one and I took off too quick and it fell back onto the plastic and put a huge scratch in it. After seeing the prices, I guess I'll live with it.

Hehe, I was right. maybe not...... remember the Toyota name was taped over by GM. You can get a Matrix service manual for $50. It cost $150 for a Vibe manual.Kind of sensing a trend here LOL how sad
