Consumer Description

MY 2011 CHEVY TRAVERSE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, ON 9/18/20 AND REFERENCED ERROR CODES P0009 AND P0018. THE CAR IS LOOSES POWER WHEN DRIVEN AND IS GETTING TERRIBLE GAS MILEAGE. IT ONLY HAS 111,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN MAINTAINED ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURER'S GUIDELINES. THE MECHANIC THAT REVIEWED MY CAR INDICATED A TIMING CHAIN ISSUE, WHICH I HAVE FOUND ALL OVER THE INTERNET HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER 2011 TRAVERSE OWNERS. LUCKILY MY CHAIN DID NOT BREAK WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. WHEN WILL CHEVY BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS ISSUE?
