Consumer Description

CAR DRAINS BATTERY WITH NO EXPLANATION. DEALER CAN NOT DIAGNOSE. YOU CAN NOT EVEN TAKE THIS CAR OUT IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE GONE LONGER THAN AN HOUR FOR FEAR IT WILL BE DEAD WHEN YOU TRY TO RESTART IT. VEHICLE IS ON ITS 3RD BATTERY. LAST TIME IT SAT FOR A WEEK IT WAS SO DEAD IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER AND JUMP STARTED FROM UNDERNEATH THE CAR WHILE IT WAS ON A LIFT. GM COVERED ALL COSTS EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS NOT IN WARRANTY? SOMETHING IS GOING ON AND THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. I SEE THIS COMPLAINT OVER AND OVER FROM 05 OWNERS. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 10K MILES ON IT BECAUSE MY WIFE AND I ARE CONCERNED WE WILL BE STRANDED IF WE TAKE IT ANYWHERE. *TR
