Consumer Description

SINCE PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE IN JANUARY OF 2006 WE HAVE BEEN REQUIRED TO MAKE EXTENSIVE REPAIRS ON AN ON GOING BASIS. THE VEHICLE HAS TO BE ALIGNED & BALANCED ALMOST MONTHLY WHICH HAS RESULTED IN US REPLACING THE TIRES ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN REPLACED TWICE AND THE ROTORS HAVE BEEN TURNED TWICE IN THE PAST YEAR. THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT OCCURRED 3 WKS AGO WHEN MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HOME ON A 55 MPH 2 LANE ROAD WHEN SUDDENLY THE CHECK ENGINE & CHECK OIL LIGHT CAME ON. THE VEHICLE JUST STOPPED. UPON TOWING IT TO A LOCAL AUTO REPAIR SHOP WE WERE INFORMED THE TIMING BELT BROKE WHICH WARPED THE CAM SHAFT. GM WOULD DO NOTHING UNTIL WE TOWED IT AGAIN, THIS TIME TO A GM DEALERSHIP. THE VEHICLE WAS FOUND TO HAVE EXTENSIVE PROBLEMS FROM THE ENGINE, TO THE TIMING BELT, CAMP SHAFT, PISTONS, PLUGS AND MUCH MORE. *TR
