| 1997 | STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST:PUMP | REIMBURSEMENT FOR RECALL REPAIRS MADE TO 1997 CHEVROLET LUMINA.*MR WHILE ATTEMPTING TO TURN INTO A PARKING LOT THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL GARAGE. ALMOST THREE YEARS LATER THE CONSUMER RECEIVES A RECALL RELATED TO THE FAILURE SHE EXPERIENCED. THE CONSUMER REQUESTED REIMBURSEMENT FROM THE MANUFACTURER BUT WAS DENIED BECAUSE THE PART THE TECHNICIAN REPLACED WAS NOT THE PART COVERED BY RECALL 03V527000. THE TECHNICIAN ALSO REPLACED THE POWER STEERING PUMP ND FRONT BRAKES. *NM |
| 1999 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE | 1999 CHEVROLET LUMINA,ONLY 70,000 MILES, HAVE HAD THE INJECTORS FLUSHED X3, NOW NEED MANIFOLD REPLACED AND HEAD GASKET REPLACED, COSTING APPROXIMATELY $1000. PROBLEM RELATED TO DEFECTIVE GASKETS ON CHEVROLET'S PART SHOULD BE PAID FOR BY CHEVROLET, NOT THE AUTO OWNER. CHEVROLET HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND THERE ARE NUMEROUS PERSONS HAVING TO REPLACE PARTS DUE TO THEIR FAILURE TO MAKE A CORRECTION OR A RECALL. I WANT CHEVROLET HELD RESPONSIBLE AND TO REIMBURSE MYSELF AND OTHERS THAT HAVE HAD TO HAVE THIS DONE TO THEIR VEHICLES. *LA |
