2012 CHEVROLET CAPTIVA Fuelpropulsion System Problems

AT RUSH HOUR , THE DASH LIGHTS COME ON AND THE CAR STOPS DEAD. NO POWER AT ALL. WE WERE ABLE TO GET IT OFF THE ROAD, BUT IT WAS DARK AND WITH NO ELECTRICAL WORKING, COULD NOT USE THE FLASHERS. WAS ALMOST HIT SEVERAL TIMES BY UNCARING DRIVERS. EVEN YELLED AT. NO POWER TO THE CAR AT ALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET CAPTIVA. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS, THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED A NUMBER OF TIMES IN THE PAST AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START UNTIL THE NEXT DAY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (COOPER CHEVROLET BUICK, 1300 S QUINTARD AVE, ANNISTON, AL, 36201), BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE AND DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. IN ADDITION, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD DISENGAGE OR DISPLAY A FUEL PUMP ERROR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED OR MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 48,000.

THE PARKING BRAKE KEEPS ON GOING ON WELL DRIVING, ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AND FUEL PUMP NOT WORKING PROPERLY.

I HAVE READ SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT CHEVY CAPTIVAS ONLINE TODAY AS I WAS SEARCHING FOR AN ANSWER FOR WHY MY CAR DIED ON ME TWICE WHILE DRIVING HOME THIS EVENING. ONCE WAS ON A HILL TURNING ONTO THE ROAD BEFORE MY HOME AND THE SECOND TIME WAS PULLING INTO MY APARTMENT COMPLEX. IF I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY OR THERE WAS A CAR COMING OVER THE HILL I COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED IN AN ACCIDENT. LATELY THE PARKING BREAK AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS HAVE BEEN COMING ON AND GOING OFF, ALSO I'VE HAD TIMES WHEN I'D GO TO START MY VEHICLE IT WOULD ACT AS IF THE BATTERY WAS DEAD. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED A YEAR TO YEAR AND A HALF AGO SO I DON'T SUPPOSE THAT'S THE PROBLEM. ALSO THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS OFTEN FLICKER. WITH ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS ON THESE PROBLEMS I FEEL THERE IS SOMETHING REALLY WRONG...
