On july 17, 2013 i crashed my 2008 roadtrek 190 popular (chevrolet express 3500 chassis) in a roadside ditch.fortunately no one was hurt but the driver-side airbag did not deploy.neither did the passenger-side airbag but it may have been turned off.in any event, the seriousness of the crash suggests that there may have been a malfunction of the airbag.i have no intent to seek any damages from roadtrek or gm as i did not sustain any significant injury and was adequately restrained by my seatbelt.i am letting you know just in case this might be a problem on some of these vehicles.contact me via email if you want photos or the location of the vehicle.

Door hinges came welded on doors with no way to lubricate them and keep them from rusting.purchased the van a few years ago. Within a few months the left hand passenger door rusted shut.repair man quoted $129 for each hinge plus the labor.soon the other door would not latch correctly. Now the automatic door locks have problems because doors will not latch properly. This month, the back right hand cargo door hinge has rusted completely off the door, making this a potential hazard, not to mention, the door cannot be shut once it is opened.once again the automatic door locking system have been compromised.called chevy soon after first had the problem to see if they would recall, because new hinges are now made to be bolted on van and can be lubricated.we have other friends with chevy vans who have the same problems.
