Consumer Description

AFTER WARM UP AND DRIVING ON HIGHWAY OR IN TOWN, VEHICLE IS SHUT OFF TO GAS UP OR ENTER A STORE FOR A FEW MINUTES AND HAVING TROUBLE STARTING AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WILL CRANK OVER AND OVER SOMETIMES ABOUT 30 SECONDS OR LONGER BEFORE IT WILL FINALLY START. NOT SURE IF IT IS VAPOR LOCK OR SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE FUEL PUMP? I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALER A COUPLE OF TIMES AND OF COURSE IT DOES NOT ACT UP FOR THEM. I DOES HAPPEN QUITE FREQUENTLY. I HAVE ALSO READ ONLINE ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM HAPPENING TO OTHER VIBE OWNERS FROM 2003-05. I AM REQUESTING THAT SOMEONE LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM.
