Consumer Description

MY 2002 CHEVY MONTE CARLO HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT. THE CRUISE CONTROL COMES ON WITHOUT BEING SELECTED AND THEN THE HEATING/COOLING SYSTEMS GOES OFF AND ON BY ITSELF. THE TURN SIGNAL GOES ON AND OFF. SOMETIMES IT WILL WORK SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT. THE FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT REGISTER CORRECTLY GOES UP AND DOWN SO I AM NEVER SURE WHAT IS IN THE TANK. OCCASIONALLY THE CAR WILL NOT START AT ALL EVEN THOUGH THE LIGHTS WORK, THE RADIO PLAYS, AND EVERYTHING ELSE WILL OPERATE INSIDE THE CAR. I WILL SIT AND WAIT A WHILE. AFTER ABOUT 15-25 MINUTES I WILL TRY TO START IT AND THEN IT WILL START UP. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE AND MORE. I HAVE TALKED TO OTHER CHEVY MONTE CARLO OWNER AND THEY HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THEIR CAR. *TR
