| 2010 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING | TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET HHR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE WITH REDUCED POWER. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PAST 40 MPH WITH THE REDUCED ENGINE POWER WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED OR TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DRIVING 45 MPH AND UP, THERE WAS A VERY HIGH NOISE LEVEL IN THE INTERIOR CABIN. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED TO EXHIBIT THE NOISE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,300. |
| 2010 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | ON APPROXIMATELY MARCH 26 2012 AT NIGHT ON A TRIP FROM PHOENIX AZ TO RENO NV MY VEHICLE LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS WENT OUT, I DROVE FROM KINGMAN AZ TO INDIAN SPRINGS NV WITH JUST MY HIGHBEAMS AFTER STOPPING IN INDIAN SPRINGS AND TRYING EVERY KNOB AND SWITCH IN THE VEHICLE THE FRONT LOW BEAMS CAME ON. THEN IN THE MONTH OF APRIL THE LOW BEAMS WENT OUT ALL TOGETHER AND AFTER BEING IN THE SHOP FOR 2 DAYS IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A RELAY PROBLEM AND REPAIR WAS MADE AND I HAD LOW BEAMS AGAIN, BUT NOW THE HORN DOESN'T FUNCTION AND AFTER BEING PULLED OVER BY THE POLICE I WAS ADVISED THAT MY TAILLIGHTS ARE OUT. BOTH PROBLEMS POSSIBLY RELATED TO A FUSE OR RELAY PROBLEM BUT I HAVEN'T HAD IT IN THE SHOP YET. NOW WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEH IN SEPTEMBER OF 2011 I NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD SHUTTER TO A STOP WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES, SOMETIMES VIOLENTLY. HAD A BRAKE JOB DONE IN MARCH AND WAS ADVISED THAT THE FRONT ROTORS WERE WARPED. HAD THEM REPAIRED AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE UNTIL APPROXIMATELY JUNE 1ST WHEN THE SHUTTERING/VIBRATING STARTED UP AGAIN AND THE SOMETIMES VIOLENTLY AT THAT. I AM REALLY CONCERNED WHEN I APPLY THE BRAKES THAT SOMETHING MAY BREAK LOSE WHEN I APPLY THE BRAKES. I'VE READ ON THE INTERNET MANY COMPLAINTS FROM CHEVROLET HHR (DIFFERENT YEAR MODELS) OWNERS OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS AND THAT AFTER HAVING THE BRAKES WORKED ON THAT THE VIBRATING/SHUTTERING COMES BACK WITHIN 3 MONTHS. THANK YOU. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR |
