SO, THE VEHICLE IS SETTING IN OUR DRIVEWAY. YOUR MOVE ON RESOLUTION. PLEASE INFORM, NEXT MOVE, I DO NOT WANT TO KEEP MAKING PAYMENTS FOR A LEMON OF A VEHICLE? I ENJOY DRIVING SUCH AN ECONOMICAL VEHICLE, BUT!!! 7) I HAVE A LOAN WITH PREMIER AUTO CREDIT, ARTURA CALDAS 818-933-4966.

THE DRIVER SIDE HEAD LAMP IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE WIRE LIGHTING HARNESS KEPT SHORTING OUT, I HAD IT REPAIRED AT A SHOP. IT LATER MELTED AND THE LIGHT WENT OUT. I TRIED TO ORDER ANOTHER ON, BUT THE DEALERSHIP ONLY SELLS THE WHOLE KIT NOT JUST THE LIGHT BULB ITSELF. I AM HAVING TO PAY OVER $300 FOR A NEW KIT WHEN ALL I NEEDED WAS A BULB AND THE HARNESS. THIS IS INSANE, ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS FOR THIS VERY SAME PROBLEM. I ALSO HAD AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WHERE MY CAR BATTERY WOULD DRAIN, AND LOSE POWER.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW. THE FIRST WINTER I HAD IT, THE THROTTLE BODY SEIZED LEAVING THE THROTTLE OPEN AND THE ENGINE RACING - THE CAR HAS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION, THEREFORE I WAS ABLE TO DEPRESS THE CLUTCH AND PULL IT OVER. THE LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER IN CIRCLEVILLE, OH PERFORMED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ON THE CAR, REROUTING THE EGR SYSTEM & REMOVING SOME PARTS AROUND THE THROTTLE BODY. ON SUBSEQUENT EVENTS, THE CAR EXPERIENCED SEVERE LOSS OF POWER AND SURGES. THE THROTTLE BODY WAS REPLACED. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN WITH THE SAME TROUBLE CODE BEING SET. THE CAR IS NOW ON ITS THIRD THROTTLE BODY (TPS SENSOR CANNOT BE REPLACED SEPARATELY) THIS MODEL YEAR HAS A THROTTLE-BY-WIRE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM. MY CAR STILL SUFFERS FROM AN INTERMITTENT ENGINE TROUBLE CODES RELATED TO THE THROTTLE BODY AND SURGING PROBLEMS. FINALLY, THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION BROKE ITS INTERNAL SHIFTING MECHANISM AND THE CAR LOCKED ITSELF IN GEAR. AT THE SAME TIME, THE CLUTCH DID NOT SEEM TO FUNCTION. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE WITH FAMILY MEMBERS IN THIS CAR.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ON MY WAY HOME FROM 3 HOURS AWAY, AND I WAS ABOUT AN HOUR AND 30 MIN FROM HOME. I STOPPED AT MCDONALD S TO FEED THE 3 KIDS, I WAS THERE FOR 35 MIN WITH THE CAR OFF. NOT EVEN 10 MIN LATER, BACK ON THE HIGHWAY, THE CAR SORT OF SPIT AND/OR SPUTTERED. I THOUGHT MAYBE I HAD GOTTEN SOME BAD GAS BECAUSE IT ONLY DID IT ABOUT 3 TIMES AND IT WAS OK, THERE WERE NO LIGHTS ON INDICATING ANYTHING WAS WRONG. JUST A COUPLE MINUTES LATER IT DID IT SPIT AND/OR SPUTTERED 2 MORE TIMES, STILL NO LIGHT INDICATORS HAD COME ON AND I LOOKED DOWN AT THE GAUGES I HAD 6/8THS TANK OF GAS, ALMOST FULL. THE ENGINE TEMP WAS READING HOT THOUGH, BUT NO LIGHTS WERE ON, SUDDENLY WE WERE GOING UP A SLIGHT INCLINE BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT GO FASTER, IN-FACT IT WAS ACTUALLY SLOWING DOWN AND IT WOULD NO LONGER SWITCH TO A HIGHER GEAR. AS SOON AS THE HIGHWAY LEVELED OFF, I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL TO GIVE THE ENGINE A BRAKE UNTIL WE REACHED THE NEXT GAS STATION, BUT AS SOON AS IT HIT NEUTRAL THE CAR SHUT OFF AND WAS COASTING. I HAD TO PULL OVER AS QUICK AS I COULD. WHEN SOMEONE FINALLY STOPPED TO HELP, WE FOUND A TINY HOLE IN A HOSE, WE CUT THE HOSE, READJUSTED IT BUT IT STILL WOULDN'T START, AFTER 3 JUMPS IT STILL WOULDN'T START. WE WERE STRANDED FOR OVER 4 HOURS, AND THE BATTERY FINALLY COMPLETELY DIED OUT AS OUR RIDE HAD JUST GOTTEN THERE. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING FOR THE BREAK DOWN, NOT EVEN A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAD CAME ON. BECAUSE OF THIS ME 3 KIDS ALL 5 YEARS OLD AND UNDER, AND MY AUNT WHO IS DEATHLY AFRAID OF SEMI'S WERE STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF A HIGHWAY FOR OVER 4 HOURS!
