| 2002 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | SECURITY SYSTEM FAILURE. VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. LUCKILY I WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY WHEN IT REFUSED TO START. HAD TO REPLACE BODY CONTROL MODULE, LOCK CYLINDER WITH PASSLOCK SENSOR BEFORE CAR WOULD START. THIS MAY NOT SEEM LIKE A SAFETY PROBLEM, BUT, WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT ALL THE PLACES YOUR CAR COULD LEAVE YOU STRANDED, IT'S SCARY. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS WITH THIS PROBLEM ON SEVERAL WEB SITES.THIS IS A FAULT OF GENERAL MOTORS, THEY KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING TO HELP THEIR CUSTOMERS WITH THIS PROBLEM. THEY NEED TO COME UP WITH A PERMANENT FIX FOR THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM AND HAVE A RECALL AND FIX IT ONCE AND FOR ALL. AVERAGE COST FOR THIS REPAIR IS ABOUT $1,000.00 DOLLARS. THE CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE PAID IT DESERVES THEIR MONEY BACK. *TR |
| 2010 | ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL | IN APRIL 2011, I WAS DRIVING ON EXPRESSWAY AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WARNING READ REDUCE ENGINE POWER, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE STABILITRAC AND THEN ENGINE CUT OFF AND I COASTED TO SHOULDER OF HWY. THE CAR FINALLY STARTED BACK UP AFTER A FEW MINUTES. I HAD TO BUY $100 ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR. NOW ON JUNE 28, 2013, ONLY 2 YEARS LATER, IT IS DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN SO I HAVE TO BUY ANOTHER ONE. THE WARRANTY ON IT ONLY LASTED 12 MONTHS. I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN OCTOBER 2010 AND THIS PROBLEM STARTED IN APRIL 2011.THIS CAR IS JUST 3 YEARS OLD AND FROM READING ON THE WEB, THERE ARE ALOT OF CHEVROLETS HAVING THIS PROBLEM. I'M READING ABOUT MODEL YEARS FROM 2007 WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. GM SHOULD HAVE ADDRESSED THIS PROBLEM BY NOW. I NEED HELP WITH THIS ISSUE!!!! *TR |
