| 2008 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND HAS NOT GONE OFF. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS OUT OF THIS VEHICLE. MAR 2010, I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO THE DEALER FOR MAKING LOUD SCRUBBING NOISES WHEN TURNING. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOTHING. OCT 2010 IT WAS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. I HAD 19,300 MILES ON THE VEHICLE WHEN THE BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OUT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. OCT 2012, IT WAS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AT ALL. I HAD 30,300 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND IT COST 600.00 IN REPAIRS. JUNE 2013 ,THE A/C WENT OUT. I HAD 34,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND IT COST 573.00 TO REPLACE THE COMPRESSOR (FIRST AND ONLY TIME I WENT TO ANOTHER MECHANICS SHOP). SEP 2013, THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. GM WANTS 100.00 JUST TO RUN A DIAGNOSTIC TO TELL ME WHY IT'S ON. MY GOODNESS, AS MANY TIMES AS I HAVE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO GM HAVEN'T I PAID ENOUGH IN DIAGNOSTICS? THIS IS RIDICULOUS! I AM NEVER BUYING ANYTHING WITH CHEVROLET WRITTEN ON IT AGAIN. I BELIEVE GM KNOWS WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS VEHICLE. IF I WASN'T ON A FIXED INCOME I WOULD GET RID OF IT. *TR |
