Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING 40MPH VEHICLE SEEMED TO SHIFT GEARS WHILE IN DRIVE GEAR. WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, VEHICLE WOULD NOT STEER (STEERING WHEEL LOCKED) AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO TURN. VEHICLE BEHAVED AS IF IT WAS IN PARKED GEAR, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS IN DRIVE GEAR AND IN MOTION. WHILE TRYING TO STOP, I WAS UNABLE TO STEER, BUT WAS ABLE TO RUN OFF THE ROAD INTO A PARKING LOT. ONCE STOPPED, MOVING GEAR SHIFTER DID NOT SEEM TO SWITCH GEARS. I TRIED PUTTING THE GEAR SHIFTER IN PARK, OR REVERSE AND NOTHING HAPPENED. VEHICLE WOULD NOT LET ME TURN THE WHEELS AND WOULD NOT GO FORWARD OR REVERSE. ERROR LIGHTS ILLUMINATED WERE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR, STABILITRACK, PARK, AND POWER STEERING LIGHT. CHEVROLET INFORMED OF ISSUE. CHEVROLET REFUSED TO FIX VEHICLE. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 40,510 MILES. CHEVROLET REFUSES TO ADMIT IT HAS A PROBLEM WITH TRANSMISSIONS OR POWER STEERING IN THESE VEHICLES. I AM LUCKY I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT INTO A PARKING LOT AND NOT RUN INTO ANYONE OR ANYTHING. *AS THE CONSUMER STATED THE PROBLEM WAS THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE WHICH WAS REPLACED WITH A NEW PART. *TR
