Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE REGARDING ELECTRICAL, AUDIO, AIRBAG LIGHTS COMING ON AND NOW ENGINE OIL. THE ENGINE OIL WAS JUST DETECTED AT 80,000 MILES HOWEVER I HAVE COMPLAINED THAT MY CAR DOES NOT RUN RIGHT SINCE THE BEGINNING. THEY CLAIM THAT THE ENGINE IS BURNING OFF THE OIL HOWEVER I AM VERY GOOD AT GETTING MY OIL CHANGES AROUND 3000 MILES AND WHERE IS THE OIL GOING? ITS NOT IN MY GARAGE OR ON THE ENGINE? I HAVE HAD MY CAR COMPLETELY GO BLANK ON THE DASH NO INDICATOR LIGHTS ETC. I HAVE FILLED A COMPLAINT WITH CHEVY TO NO AVAIL. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT NOW MY ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED OR MAYBE JUST HE PISTONS? AT 80,000 MILES? THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE I OWNED IT FROM SEPT 2009! I THINK CHEVY NEEDS TO STEP UP AND MAKE THINGS RIGHT! DISAPPOINTED. JUST FOR THE RECORD I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN CALIFORNIA. *JS
