Consumer Description

GAS GAUGE BECAME VERY ERRATIC. FINALLY DIDN'T REGISTER AT ALL. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHILE OUT OF TOWN. TOOK THE CAR TO A MERLIN AUTOMOTIVE FOR REPAIR. SPENT HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS AND THE LIGHT WOULD NOT GO OFF. MASS AIR FLOW METER, PLUGS, FUEL RAIL, THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR, FUEL INJECTORS. THEY EVEN CALLED IN A CHEVY TECHNICIAN WHO COULD NOT FIGURE IT OUT. WHEN I RETURNED HOME I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL REPAIR SHOP WHERE THEY DROPPED THE TANK AND REPLACED THE SENDING UNIT. HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS IN EXPENSES. THEN THE HEATING FAN SWITCH STARTED SMOKING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED AS IT HAD MELTED AND NOTHING WORKED . ALSO, EVERY DOOR RUSTED THROUGH AT THE BOTTOM INCLUDING THE REAR HATCH. DEALERS' RESPONSE:WELCOME TO WISCONSIN. I SPENT $700 TO HAVE THE RUST CLEANED UP. *TR
