2004 Chevrolet Cavalier

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE 2004 CHEVROLET CAVALIER HAS BEEN HAVING A CONTINUOUS PROBLEM WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL. WHEN THE VEHICLE STOPS ON DRY ROADS, IT WILL STALL AND SHUT OFF COMPLETELY. THE AUTO AIR CONTROL SYSTEM SENSOR AND THE ENTIRE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM HAVE BOTH BEEN REPLACED TWICE. THE PARTS WERE REPLACED AT A SERVICE DEALER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT GEARS SMOOTHLY, AND WILL REMAIN IN A LOWER GEAR AT HIGHER SPEEDS.

WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM THANKSGIVING I WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT MY MANUAL TRANSMISSION, AND I NOTICED THAT THE CLUTCH APPEARED STUCK TO THE FLOOR. THE REMAINDER OF THE WAY HOME (30 MILES) IF I SLOWED DOWN THE WOULD STALL AS I COULD NOT PUSH THE CLUTCH IN. THE CAR, A 2004 CAVALIER, HAS A TOTAL OF 42000 MILES ON IT. UPON GETTING THE CAR TO THE DEALER I WAS TOLD THE MASTER CYLINDER, THE SLAVE. *NM

I HAVE AN EXCESSIVE GRINDING FEEL WITHIN THE CLUTCH PEDAL. A TSB FOR THIS HAS BEEN ISSUED AND SO FAR THE VEHICLE IS 6 MONTHS OLD. 2 CLUTCH ASSEMBLIES HAVE BEEN INSTALLED AND ONE FLYWHEEL. THE ORIGINAL TSB STATES DO NOT REPLACE THE CLUTCH COMPONENTS AND FLYWHEEL BECAUSE THIS WILL NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. GM, WHY ARE YOU GOING AGAINST YOUR OWN TECHNICAL EXPERTS ADVISE? WANT TO PREVENT A DEVASTATING RECALL BY HOODWINKING YOUR CUSTOMERS IN SAYING THE PROBLEM IS DESIGNED IN THE TRANSMISSION AS NORMAL? THIS HAS TO BE UP CHANNELED TO HIGHER GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS. LEMON LAWS AND IGNORANT AND COMPLACENT CUSTOMERS WHO ARE AFRAID OF GOING THE DISTANCE WILL ONLY ALLOW THEIR INVESTMENTS TO BE TRADED OR JUST LIVE WITH THE COMPLAINT. LOOKING AT THE HISTORY OF 2000-2004 CAVALIERS, SUNFIRES AND MALIBUS WITH THIS TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE COMBINATION IS ONLY THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG. I WISH THERE WAS A FORUM TO ALLOW CROSS COMMUNICATION BETWEEN OWNERS FOR A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT. THIS IS AMERICA. FOR CRYING OUT LOUD I GET BETTER RETURN SERVICE AT WAL MART FOR DEFECTIVE MERCHANDISE.*AK
