All Engine And Engine Coolingcooling System Complaints
NOW AT 117,000 KMS. OR PAST MY FIVE YEAR WARRANTY. SINCE 88,000KMS. HAVE COMPLAINED SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT TEMP GAUGE VERY OUT OF WHACK ON HIGHWAY TRIPS, LEAD ME TO BELIEVE SEVERELY OVERHEATED, BUT NO MESSAGE FROM CAR, JUST GAUGE GOING ALMOST 90 DEGREES PAST "DANGER POINT " OF GAUGE. IN LAST TWO YEARS TEMP GAUGE REPLACED THREE TIMES. OBVIOUSLY NOT THE PROBLEM. RETURNS TO NORMAL FUNCTION IN CITY OR SHORT HAUL DRIVING. STOP FREQUENTLY, AND UNDER HOOD CHECK SHOWS NO SIGNS OF OVERHEATING. CONCLUSION- ELECTRICAL, SENSOR, PROBLEM AND DEALER KEEPS COMING UP WITH COSTLY NEW EQUIPMENT FIXES WHICH DO NOT WORK. NOW THEY WANT TO BLAME A WATER PUMP LEAK AND GASKETS, ALTHOUGH RESERVOIR CAREFULLY WATCHED BY ME. NO LEAKS THERE. HAVE NEVER HAD TO ADD FLUID, ALTHOUGH I KEEP IT ALWAYS IN CAR-THAT IS THE DEXCOOL-WATER MIX. NEVER DOWN LOWER THAN RECOMMENDED, AND THE DEALER WANTS TO GIVE ME...
WE HAVE A 2004 CHEVROLET IMPALA, WHICH IS A PIECE OF CRAP. WE PURCHASED THIS CAR USED, IT HAD 26,000 MILES ON IT. I FILED A COMPLAINT W/ CHEVY ON PHONE NUMBER 866-790-5700. OUR CASE # IS 71-578092134. THEY WERE NO HELP, SINCE OUR WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. OUR TRACTION SYSTEM & CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEPT COMING ON. THE TRACTION SYSTEM SHUT OFF & WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON. IT ALSO KNOCKED OFF THE ABS SYSTEM. NOT SAFE. WE TOOK IT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC, THE REPAIRS WERE A NEW THERMOSTAT & THERMOSTAT SENSOR, & DRIVERS SIDE REAR HUB BEARING. THE COST WAS $500.00, THE DEALERSHIP WANTED @1100.00!!!!!!! FOR THE SAME REPAIRS. THE REPAIR SHOP STATED TO ME THAT THEY HAVE APPROXIMATELY 5-10 IMPALAS A WEEK IN THEIR SHOP FOR THE SAME REPAIR!!! IT APPEARS GM SCREWED UP. WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES WHO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. WE ALSO OWN...
