Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED USED ON A SATURDAY WITH THE DEALERSHIP NOT ADVISING US THERE WERE ANY ISSUES. THE NEXT DAY WE HEADED TO THE LAKE AND 20 MINUTES LATER WE WERE SITTING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS IDLING VERY HARD WITH RPM GOING CRAZY. NOW OVER A YEAR AND SEVERAL VISITS TO THE SHOP LATER WE ARE STILL EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS INITIALLY TURNED ON IT WILL NOT MOVE. IT HAS TO SIT FOR ABOUT 3 MINUTES WITH THE ENGINE LIGHT FLASHING. IF YOU TRY TO PUSH THR GAS NOTHING HAPPENS. THE VEHICLE IDLES VERY HARD. IT IS ONLY FIRING ON 4 CYLINDERS AND THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT GM IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THEY SAID IT IS A "BAD BATCH" AND WILL JUST HAVE TO KEEP REPLACING THE HEAD TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS IS NOT FAIR TO THE CONSUMER AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY GM. *TR
