Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR DOWN THE HIGHWAY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN PULLING TO THE SIDE IF THE ROAD THE CAR JUST SHUT OF AND WENT DEAD. TRIED RESTARTING THE CAR IT WOULDN'T START. HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP AND I NOW HAVE A $8,900 BILL BECAUSE THE ENGINE SEIZED UP DUE TO THE TIMING CHAIN. SO I NOW HAVE A BIG BLUE PERMANENT YARD FIXTURE BECAUSE WHO CAN AFFORD TO FIX THIS CAR IN THE PANDEMIC. I'VE HAVE RESEARCHED THIS AND THERE HAS BEEN ALOT OF PEOPLE WITH THIS ISSUE. WHY HAS THERE NOT BEEN A RECALL TO FIX THIS KNOWN ISSUE? THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. WHY IS CHEVY NOT FIXING THIS PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES??
