Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING AND VEHICLE STARTED TO STUTTER,HESITATE , THEN TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING BRAKES DIDN'T WORK PROPERLY. WE WERE ON AN OVER PASS DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC BUSY INTERSECTION. FINALLY AFTER ABOUT 1 HR WE MADE IT TO AUTOZONE LIMP MODE ALL THE WAY. PURCHASED COILS X 3 , COIL IGNITION MODULE, SPARK PLUG WIRES,SPARK PLUGS, CAMSHAFT SENSOR,CRANKSHAFT SENSOR. THEN FIND OUT IT WAS ONLY A FREAKING FUSE UNDER SEAT THAT WAS BURNT AND MELTING AWAY. NOT VERY HAPPY. GM SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR KNOWING ABOUT THIS AND NOT OFFERING TO FIX IT.
