Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH MY 01' CHEVROLET MONTE CARLO SS. THE CAR WILL IDLE BETWEEN 1200 AND 3300 RPMS INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING AND IN PARK. THIS PROBLEM MAKES THIS VEHICLE VERY HARD TO CONTROL, SLOW DOWN AND STOP. MY FUEL MILEAGE HAS BEEN AFFECTED, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE MY BRAKES, AND MY CONFIDENCE IN THIS VEHICLE IS GONE. MY WIFE AND I FEEL VERY UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS CAR BECAUSE WE NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO ACT UP, AND WHEN IT DOES, THE SAFETY OF US AND ALL THOSE AROUND US IS IN JEPORDY. I HAVE TOWED THIS VEHICLE TO THE DEALER OVER 8 TIMES, FOR THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD NUMBEROUS THIS REPLACE, BUT THE PROBLEM KEEPS COMING BACK. I HAVE ATTEMPTED A GM BUY BACK AND ALSO A LEMON LAW AND GM REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I NO LONGER WANT TO WASTE MY TIME AND MONEY ON A CAR THAT MAY SOON HARM SOMEONE OR MYSELF!!! *AK
