Consumer Description

THE CAR HAS HAD ALL RECALL WORK DONE FOR BOTH ISSUES HOWEVER THE VEHICLE IS SPEWING OIL AGAIN AND EVEN AFTER THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN REPLACED THE VEHICLE DOES NOT STOP WHEN IN REVERSE OR MOVING SLOWLY FORWARD. CHEVY STATES THAT THESE ISSUES ARE NOW MY ISSUE AND AND SPENDS BECAUSE RECALL WORK IS ONLY ONE YEAR ON THE WARRANTY. WHEN BACKING OUT FROM A PARKING SPOT OR DRIVEWAY THE VEHICLE DOES NOT STOP WHEN THE BRAKES ARE PRESSED AND OIL LEAKS RANDOMLY. IN 2015 AS THEY MADE THE REVEAL REPAIR THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE, HOWEVER THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE REPAIRED THE ISSUE.
