Consumer Description

THIS IS A SECOND STATEMENT REGARDING A COMPLAINT I MADE CONCERNING MY TRACKER. BEFORE I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES THE CAR WOULD SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND SWERVE TO THE SIDE. IT HAPPENED SO QUICKLY WITHIN A WEEK. I DROVE ON THE FREEWAY WHEN IT WAS SO BAD I KNEW IT WAS TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP, AND THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT BELIEVE WHAT THEY SAW! THE CROSS MEMBER WAS A RUSTED MESS! HE COULDN'T BELIEVE I DIDN'T CRASH AND BURN ON THE FREEWAY. THEY SAID THAT THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED SOME SERIOUS DAMAGE TO MYSELF AND OTHERS. I HAD TO PAY $1000 TO GET IT FIXED! $1000 TO FIX SOMETHING THAT SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED ANYWAY ON ANY CAR! I STARTED A POSTING ON CARSPACE.COM AND THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL RESPONSES TO THIS SAME ISSUE. EACH PERSON SAID WHEN THEY TOOK THE CAR IN, THE SHOP COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT THEY SAW. THEY WERE ALL SURPRISED THERE WASN'T A RECALL. I BELIEVE CHEVROLET MADE A STATEMENT ALONG THE LINES OF THERE NOT BEING ANY ISSUE WITH THIS. THAT THIS KIND OF PROBLEM WOULD NOT RISK LIVES. THEY WERE WRONG, SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE. PLEASE!*AK
