NHTSA Complaint #743036 — 1996 CHEVROLET C10

ENGINE REVS UP WHEN ENGINE IS COLD AND IDLES DOWN THE ROAD AT 35 MPH I FIRST REPORTED THIS TO THE DEALER SOON AFTER I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE WAY A 5.0 L. ENGINE OPERATED AND NOTHING COULD BE DONE ABOUT IT AFTER SEVERAL NEAR CRASHES BECAUSE OF THE RPMS OF THE ENGINE AS I HAVE APPROACHED ICY INTERSECTIONS BECAUSE THE WHEELS WOULD BE PUSHING ME AND THE BRAKES WOULD LOCK UP I WOULD HAVE TO SHIFT INTO NETURAL TO KEEP FROM RUNNNG INTO THE INTERSECTION, AFTER 5 YEARS I HAVE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND THE DEALER MAY HAVE BEEN IN ERROR AS THO THE PROBLEM OR OTHERWISE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES (THE ICY ROADS) AM I THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM?*AK
