Consumer Description

INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET WAS DEFECTIVE-CAUSING PROBLEMS WITH STALLING AND IGNITION AMONG OTHERS. CAR HAS STALLED THREE TIMES WHILE IN MOTION. CHEVY CANNOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. LEFT ME SIT TWICE BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT RESTART-EVENTUALLY WOULD RESTART AFTER ENGINE COOLED. STILL RUNS TERRIBLE AFTER SOME TYPE OF MAINTANENCE WAS COMPLETED ON THE CAR WHICH CHEVY BELIEVES WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. HAS BECOME AN UNRELIABLE CAR AND I AM FEARFUL OF DRIVING IT DUE TO THE IGNITION STALLING PROBLEMS. CHEVY NOT REALLY HELPFUL IN DEALING WITH THE SITUATION.*AK
