2008 Chevrolet Uplander

RIGHT BACK PASSENGER DOOR WOULDN'T CLOSE PROPERLY 3 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE; TOOK IT IN FOR ADJUSTMENT. 2 YEARS LATER, DURING WHICH MY BABY WAS SITTING NEXT TO THAT DOOR, THE LATCH FAILED AND THE DOOR WAS INOPERABLE. LATCH WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED. FUEL/OXYGEN INJECTOR FAILURE 3 TIMES; WAITING ON A PART. TAKEN IN FOR SQUEALING BRAKES 3 TIMES; WAS TOLD THE BRAKE PADS WERE ON RECALL. 2 YEARS LATER, I'M STILL WAITING ON THE BRAKE PADS. ANTI-LOCK BRAKE TROUBLE TWICE, STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM FAILURE TWICE, SENSOR MALFUNCTIONS ON A REGULAR BASIS, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON A REGULAR BASIS; EACH TIME IT IS TAKEN TO MECHANIC. I'VE BEEN TOLD TO IGNORE THE PROBLEMS IF THE WARNING GOES OFF THE NEXT TIME I START THE CAR, AND TO ONLY BRING IT IN IF THE WARNINGS GO ON AND OFF A FEW TIMES. A FEW TIMES THE MECHANIC HAS SAID THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT, BUT THE WARNING LIGHTS KEEP COMING BACK ON. *TR

1 OPENED DRIVERS SIDE REAR DOOR AT DAY CARE.. CLOSED DOOR AND IT FEEL TO THE GROUND. THE SILVER PIECE THAT SLID ON THE TRACK ON THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY BROKE OFF. I GO INSIDE THE CAR TO CALL ASSISTANCE AFTER PICKING THE DOOR UP AND PUTTING IT IN A RESTIN POSITION ON THE CAR. I GET INSIDE AND THE DOORS LOCK AND WILL NOT OPEN I COULD NOT GET OUT OF THE CAR. I GO TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY FIX IT MAKING ME PAY FOR ONLY HALF OF THE PART AND NO LABOR. I GO PICK UP MY CHILDREN AND THE DOOR THAT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE FIXED WILL NOT SHUT COMPLETELY BUT LOCKS AND MY DRIVER DOOR WILL NOT OPEN BECAUSE IT IS LOCKING ITS SELF. MY CHILDREN WERE STUCK IN THE CAR IN HOT TEXAS WEATHER WITH OUT AIRCONDITIONING. LUCKILY THE DOOR OPENED AFTER A MINUTE OR SO OF MY PULLING AND UNLOCKING AND LOCKING THE DOOR. THIS WAS VERY SCARY FOR TWO REASON WHAT IF THE DOOR FALLS OFF WHILE IM DRIVING AND WHAT IF I CANT GET MY KIDS OUT ! I WILL BE TAKING IT BACK IN THE MORNING VUT IT WAS VERY SCARY. 2 TWICE 3 NEW PIECE AND HINGE PUT ON SLIDING DOOR. *TR
