Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD ALL RECALLS DONE ON THIS CAR. HAVE HAD BASICALLY EVERYTHING BUT THE ENGINE REPLACED. IT RUNS LIKE IT IS A SEMI. STALLS AT STOP LIGHTS. HAS DIED TWICE WHILE DRIVING IT - AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN EVEN IN NEUTRAL. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT BECAUSE IT COULD STALL OUT WHEN GOING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION. I KEEP THE OIL CHANGED REGULARLY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO. I CAN NOT AFFORD TO REPLACE THE ENGINE - I STILL OWE ON MY CAR LOAN ON THIS CAR. IN ALL THE 40 PLUS YEARS I HAVE DRIVEN CARS, I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS MUCH TROUBLE WITH A VEHICLE. I CAN UNDERSTAND HAVING TO DO SOMETHING EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE - LIKE TRANSMISSION, ETC. I HAVE SPENT OVER $3000 ON DIFFERENT "FIXES" THAT HAVN'T FIXED IT. I AM USUALLY A CHEVROLET PERSON, BUT I AM NOT GOING TO BUY A CHEVROLET AGAIN.
