THIS CAR HAS BEEN ONE PROBLEM AFTER ANOTHER. THE DAY AFTER WE LEASED THE CAR IT WAS IN THE SHOP FOR THE BRAKES, THE CAR HAS HAD 2 ENGINES IN IT. THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN REBUILT. THE BRAKES ARE STILL NOT CORRECT. TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AGAIN AND THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY IS UP. WE COMPLAINED TO CHEVROLET AND THE BBB. TO NO AVAIL THEY SEEMED TO BE ON CHEVROLET'S SIDE IN THE CASE. WE WERE TO THE POINT THAT WE WERE JUST GOING TO LET THE CAR GO BACK BUT THAT WOULD ONLY HURT MY HUSBAND'S CREDIT MORE THEN IT WAS ALREADY. WE HAD TO KEEP THE CAR THROUGH THE LEASE. THIS LEFT A REALLY BAD TAST IN MY MOUTH FOR PURCHASING NEW VEHICLES BECAUSE YOU ARE STUCK WITH IT FOR THE DURATION OF THE LEASE OR PURCHASE.
