Consumer Description

THE CAR WILL NOT START NO MATTER HOT OR COLD. ONCE STARTED THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM THROWS MULTIPLE ERRORS, FROM SECURITY, BATTERY, SERVICE ENGINE SOON, ABS LIGHT, SEAT BELT LIGHT, AND BRAKES. THE COMPLETE DASH BOARD GOES DEAD INCLUDING ALL GAUGES, FROM THE SPEEDOMETER, FUEL AND TEMPERATURE GAUGE. THE WARNING BELL CONTINUES TO RING AS THE BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON - IT DOES THIS CONTINUALLY WHILE DRIVING. OFTEN TIMES IT WILL NOT START. I HAVE A 6 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND I AM CONCERNED FOR HER SAFETY WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I HAVE PUT A NEW BATTER, NEW STARTER AND NEW ALTERNATOR IN THIS CAR. GM KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEMS AND THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO RE-CALL THESE CARS AND FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR
