Consumer Description

WE OWN A 2001 CHEVY Z71 PICKUP. WE ARE HAVING A RECURRING AND POSSIBLE COMMON CHEVY PROBLEM OF THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYING ON AND THE TRUCK FAILING TO START UNLESS THE SECURITY SYSTEM IS RESET. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY UNHOOKED THE AFTER MARKET REMOTE START A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, SAYING THAT IT WAS CONFUSING THE SECURITY SYSTEM. THIS DID NOT HELP. WE DESPERATELY NEED A RECALL ISSUED BECAUSE WE CANNOT AFFORD TO GET IT FIXED OTHERWISE. THIS HAS BEEN ROUGH ON MY HUSBAND, BECAUSE HE WORKS AWAY FROM HOME AND I HAVE HAD TO PICK HIM UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT MANY TIMES. *TR
