Consumer Description

ANTI THEFT ACTIVATES ALOT , JUST WISH I COULD START THE CAR WHEN I NEED IT .HEATER CONTROL DOESN'T WANT TO WORK RIGHT, IT WOULD ALSO BE NICE TO HAVE HEAT IN THE WINTER , BEEN TO SHOP A NUMBER OF TIMES BUT GM CAN'T SEEM TO FIND THE PROBLEM. CHEVROLETS ARE JUNK, I WONT BUY ANOTHER ONE. I FIXED MY BRAKE PROBLEM BY USING CERAMIC PADS, COST A LITTLE BUT WELL WORT IT ( HAD THE SAME BRAKE PROBLEMS THAT WERE REPORTED HERE EVERY 5000 OR SO MILE IN FOR REPAIRS. ) WHEN I PUT CERAMIC PADS ON THEY LASTED 40,000 MILES AND STILL GOING STRONG. *AK
