| 2000 | SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:RECLINER | I HAD THE FRONT RECLINER FIXED AND AT A LATER DATE HAD THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT RECLINER FIXED. NOW 22 MONTHS LATER THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT RECLINER IS BROKEN AGAIN. I AM NOT ROUGH WITH MY SEATS AND I THINK THAT THIS IS REDICULOUS THAT THESE KEEP BREAKING. THE COST TO GET THESE FIXED IS AROUND 140.00 EACH. I DON'T THINK THAT I WILL EVER BUY ANOTHER CHEVY PRODUCT AGAIN. I DON'T BELEIVE THAT THIS SHOULD BE SOMETHING THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO FIX EVERY 2 YEARS.*AK |
| 1998 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK | WHEN DEPRESSING BRAKE PEDAL TO COME TO A STOP, PEDAL IS HARD AND WILL NOT GO DOWN. IF I KEEP MY FOOT ON PEDAL EVENTUALLY IT STOPS BUT IT REQUIRES LONGER STOPPING DISTANCE. WHILE DRIVING MAKES HUMMING, MOANING NOISE UNTIL ABS LIGHT COMES ON AND PROBLEM STOPS. BRAKING BECOMES EASIER. WAS TOLD BY MECHANIC THAT RIGHT FRONT HUB BEARING IS BAD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. WAS TOLD THIS MAY CLEAR UP ABS/BRAKING SITUATION. FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. SHOWS HALF TANK WHEN NEAR EMPTY. AS FUEL LEVEL GOES DOWN, GAUGE GOES UP.FUEL PUMP WENT OUT AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. |
