Consumer Description

THE CAR WILL SHUT DOWN WITHOUT WARNING. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS WHEN ACCELERATING, BRAKING, AND WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH NEITHER ACCELERATION OR BRAKING. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ON LINE AND IT SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS WITH NO KNOWN RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. EVERY INCIDENT WHERE I SEE IT REPORTED, THE INDIVIDUAL HAS NOT HAD A FIX. THE FIRST INCIDENT WAS 3 WEEKS AGO, THEN LAST NIGHT, AND AGAIN THIS MORNING. IF THIS WERE TO HAPPEN IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION PEOPLE WOULD GET HURT. PERSONALLY I PLAN TO BUY A NEW CAR BECAUSE I DO NOT FEEL THAT CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP WILL PROVIDE A FIX. *TR
