Consumer Description

THIS CAR HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS, STEERING HAS LOCKED ON ME 2 TIMES WHICH I WAS LATE FOR WORK BOTH TIMES, AND IS A SAFTEY CONCERN , WHAT IF I WAS IN A BAD AREA TO BE STUCK??? THE DEALER SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR BUT WHEN CHECKING THE NHTSA.GOV SITES THERE ARE TONS OF CARS WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS. CHEVROLET HAS GOTTEN RID OF THE STEERING LOCK IN 2001 AND 2002 WHY IS THAT BECAUSE IT DOESNT OPERATE CORRECTLY. THE TIRE PRESSURE WAS ALWAYS OFF ON EACH TIRE. MY FUEL GAUGE IS ALWAYS WRONG. NOT TO INCLUDE MY ENGINE TICKS VERY LOUD AND THE DEALER SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THAT THERE IS ALSO OIL LEAKAGE AND CONSUMPTION PROBLEM. I JUST WANT MY $50K CAR FIXED. IF THIS DOES NOT GET RESOLVED I WILL HAVE TO TAKE THIS A STEP FUTHER AND REVIEW LEGAL OPTIONS. THANK YOU. NHTSA FOR YOUR HELP.*AK REF. IN EA02-031 *CJS
