Consumer Description

I I CHANGED IT. IT STALLED REPEATEDLY AND WE HAD IT REPAIRED RECENTLY. WE ALSO HAD THE OIL CHECKED AND REPLACED SO GM COULD TRACK THE OIL CONSUMPTION. UNFORTUNATELY A MONTH LATER THE CAR WOULD NOT START SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY, SO WE HAD IT TOWED IN TO A GM DEALER. THEY SAID THE TIMING CHAIN IS BUSTED AND THEY NEED TO PULL THE ENGINE BECAUSE THERE IS METAL IN THE OIL PAN SO OUR OIL TEST IS WORTHLESS. THE MECHANIC SAID NOT CHANGING THE OIL OR LOW OIL LEVELS MAY HAVE CAUSED THE TIMING CHAIN PROBLEM. THE ESTIMATED COST TO FIX THE CURRENT PROBLEM IS AT LEAST $2,300. I'M GOING TO CONTACT A LAWYER AND SEE WHAT CAN BE DONE BECAUSE THIS CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED.
