Consumer Description

WHILE ON VACATION ENGINE STALLED GETTING OFF EXIT. RAN THROUGH INTERSECTION DUE TO NO BREAKS AND SLUGGISH STEERING. HAD EGR VALVE REPLACED AT LOCAL GARAGE. SAME THING HAPPEND ABOUT 50 MILES LATER. CAR WAS TOWED TO CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP, CONNECTED TO COMPUTER SYSTEM. WE WERE TOLD THAT CHEVROLET'S FIX FOR THIS WAS A NEW COMPUTER CHIP (PROM). THE VALVE HAS NOT FAILED SINCE. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM. IF THERE HAD BEEN ANYTHING AT THE INTERSECTION WE DROVE THOUGH, SOMEONE COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED. NOT TO MENTION THIS COST OVER $600.00 TO DIAGNOSE AND REPAIR.
