Consumer Description

CAR ENGINE REVS UP TO 3-5 RPMS THEN JERKS FORWARD, THOUGHT I HAD GOT HIT FROM BEHIND, LUCKILY THERE WASNT ANYONE IN FRONT OF ME THIS HAS HAPPEND SEVERAL TIMES. BROUGHT TO DEALER 1ST TIME THEY SAID IT WAS A BENT PUSH ROD AND THAT IT WAS "FIXED, BUT MAY HAPPEN AGAIN" TRUCK WASNT RUNNING THE SAME WHEN I GOT IT BACK STILL HESITATING VERY SLIGHTLY. 1/24 AT A RED LIGHT WHEN IT TURNED GREEN, STEPPED ON THE GAS IT JUMPED SO FAR FORWARD AND THAT MY BODY REACTED AND I THOUGHT FOR SURE I HAD BEEN HIT, THERE WAS NO ONE BEHIND ME. HAPPEND AGAIN, BUT THIS TIME THE ENGINE REVVED 1ST. DIDNT DRIVE IT AFTER THIS, NEXT DAY TRIED TO DRIVE IT IT WAS REVVING SO FIERCLY AND JUMPINH SO BAD ON A 12 MIN RIDE THAT I HAD TO DRIVE WITH MY HAZARDS ON ON THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD IN ORDER TO AVOID GETTING HIT OR AVOID HITTING ANYONE ELSE. BY THE TIME I GOT HOME THE TRUCK WOULDNT EVEN DRIVE THE ENGINE WAS JUST REVVING. IT WAS THEN TAKEN BY FLATBED TO THE DEALER. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR ALL, AND CHEVROLET/GENERAL MOTORS NEEDS TO REMEDY THIS ASAP
