Consumer Description

MY 2011 CHEVY HHR LIKE MANY OTHERS I'VE LEARNED FROM CHECKING ONLINE IS LEAKING GAS NEAR THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND IS VERY DANGEROUS . WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL ON THIS ARE YOU WAITING FOR ONE OF THESE CARS TO BURST IN FLAMES AND SOMEONE TO BE KILLED BEFORE GM IS MADE RESPONSIBLE TO FIX THE DEFECT . I DON'T HAVE HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO REPAIR THIS .AND EVEN WHEN GM IS HELD RESPONSIBLE THEY DO AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE AND THEY DON'T REALLY ADDRESS THE PROBLEM. I ALSO HAVE A 2004 CHEVY IMPALA AND THERE IS A RECALL ON THAT FOR THE IGNITION , BY THE TIME THEY NOTIFIED ME MY IGNITION SWITCH HAD MALFUNCTIONED AND THEY WON'T FIX THAT . THERE FIX IS TO ALTER THE KEY SO THERE ISN'T SO MUCH PRESSURE ON THE SWITCH. THAT DOES ME NO GOOD SINCE THE CAR IS SITTING IN MY HARD AND IT IS DEAD BECAUSE THE SWITCH MALFUNCTIONED AND I CAN'T AFFORD TO GET IT FIXED.. WHEN THEY SELL A CAR THEY MAKE A LOT OF MONEY KN IT BUT THEY DON'T STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT . AND NO ONE MAKES THEM DO SO. BUT AS SOON AS SOMEONE IS KILLED THEN THEY DO DAMAGE CONTROL AND YOU HEAR ALL THIS BULL, WE DIDN'T KNOW ,WE DIDN'T THINK IT WAS THAT BAD , AND WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE . I KNOW THIS RANT WILL DO NO GOOD BUT I COULDN'T SLEEP AT NIGHT IF I KNEW I WAS THE ONE RESPONSIBLE FOR THINGS LIKE THIS . THANKS
