I AM STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY AND WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE HILL IS GOING OWN I CALLED THE POLICE AND THE TOWING TRUCK AND TOW MY CAR TO A MECHANIC AND ME AND MY KIDS TOOK A TAXI IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREE WAY AT 10:00PM AT KNIGHT .IN THE MORNING THE MECHANIC CALLED ME AND TOLD ME THAT HE CANT START THE CAR & SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE FUEL SYSTEM & THE STEERING AND THE STARTER & THE TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY BURNS THERE NO WAY TO BE FIX SO MY INSURANCE DID NOT COVER ANY OF DAMAGES .I WAS AT A COMPLETE SHOCK BECAUSE I AM ALWAYS IN A VERY GOOD SHAPE I DO MY OIL CHANGE ON TIME I DO MY BREAKS AND MY TIRES ANY THING THE CAR NEED I DO IT ON TIME .SO ME AND MY WIFE STRUGGLE WITH WALKING 3.6 MILE EVERY DAY TO DROP OUR KIDS TO SCHOOL AFTER 3 MONTHS STRUGGLING WE FINALLY SAVE $4000 WE BOUGHT 1999 CHEVY VENTURE ON 10/18/2012 HAS 91.000 VERY LAW MILE. THEN EVERY THING HAPPEN ON THE 2003 CHEVY WE HAVE WORST ON THE 1999 THE COLENT START ACTING AND WE FIX IT AND START LEAKING AGAIN WE REPLACE IT TO BRAND NEW AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE START COMING OUT WE THOUGHT IS THE MECHANIC WE CHANG

PERSONALLY I THINK THE WHOLE VAN IS GARBAGE AND UNSAFE TO BE EVEN ALOUD ON THE ROADS. I HAVE HAD SO MANY PROBLEMS STARTING WITH HEAD GASKET~ THE ELECTRICAL IS A NIGHTMARE, VAN DIES EVERY FEW MONTHS FOR A REASON THAT 4 DIFFERENT MECHANICS CANT FIGURE OUT & I HAVE BOUGHT 6 BATTERIES IN THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF. MY POWER LOCKS STOPPED WORKING, MY POWER WINDOWS MOVE VERY SLOW & I HAVE TO HELP PULL AND PUSH THEM DOWN AND NOW MY PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW DON'T EVEN MOVE. MY FUEL WAS LEAKING BY INTAKE. MY CHECK ENGINE, AIR BAGS, BRAKES, BATTERY LIGHTS COME ON & OFF. HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND FOGGY, FORGET TURNING SIGNALS. I REPLACED THEM AND THEY JUST GO OUT AGAIN. STARTER WENT, JUST REPLACED WHOLE EXHAUST SYSTEM & NOW THE COOLING SYSTEM, FANS ARE GOING HAYWIRE! LOUD BANGING NOISE LIKE SOMEONE IS UNDER THE HOOD TRYING TO GET OUT BUT CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. GM SHOULD REALLY HAVE A RECALL ON THE VEHICLES FOR SAFETY REASONS FOR SURE. *TR

I PURCHASED A CHEVROLET 1500 EXPRESS CARGO VAN IN 1999. SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VAN I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH REAR AXLE AND I HAVEN'T HAD ANY ABS WITH MY BRAKES SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VAN. THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED MY VAN FROM WOULDN'T FIX THE WARRANTY WORK LEAVING MY VAN DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. IN MY RESARCH I AM FINDING THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM AS I AM WITH THEIR AXLE AND THEIR BRAKES. I HAVE ALSO LEARNED THAT THE REASON THE AXLE IS HAVING PROBLEMS IS DUE TO GENERAL MOTORS ARE PUTTING LIGHT DUTY AXLES ON HEAVY DUTY VANS. I FEEL THERE IS A NEED FOR AN INVESTIGATION FOR THIS PROBLEM. WILL YOU HELP?. *AK

ON THE BELOW DATE, EMPLOYEE PLACED KEY IN IGNITION AND WHEN THE KEY WAS TURNED ON THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED, STRIKING THE EMPLOYEE AND THRUSTING HIM INTO THE SEAT BACK, CAUSING HEAD, NECK AND BACK INJURIES. THE FAILURE APPARENTLY WAS DUE TO CORROSION OF THE AIR BAG DRIVER, WHICH IS LOCATED UNDER THE DRIVER'S SEAT, UNDER A RUBBER MAT WITH A FABRIC INSULATION. DRIVER AND AIR BAG WERE BOTH REPLACED. CORROSION WAS MOST LIKELY CAUSED BY ROCK SALT AND CALCIUM CHLORIDE INFUSION, AS THESE ARE VERY HEAVILY USED AS DE-ICING AGENTS IN THE AREA.*AK

DEALER HAD TO REPLACE TWICE THE FRONT AND PASSENGER SEAT BOLTS. WHICH BROKE. LAST WEEK THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEAT BOLTS BROKE OFF AGAIN. THIS IS VEHICLE WAS NOT ANY LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. *AK
