Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I purchased a 95 barrette. i did not start having problems until 2000. it was a brake related problem. my brakes would lock up and the abs light would come on. i had no idea what the problem was but knew i had to have it fixed before it caused a accident from brake lock up during hard braking. i ultimately bought a cd version of a auto repair manual. popular mechanics repair software. still no answers until i went to the tsb and safety recall portion. i was shocked to find my problem in there. it was how the wiring was routed it and would rub on the gas line and wear the wires down to cause a short in respect cause the abs system to shut down and not operate. i also found a safety recall notice on mine. below list the recalls bulletins for 1995 chevrolet beretta v6-3100 3.1l vin m sfi safety recalls tsb number issue date tsb title 95c03 sep 94 recall - support panel omitted from rocker panel general recalls tsb number issue date tsb title 95c08 oct 94 campaign - a/t defective 2nd clutch reaction plate 410103 sep 94 campaign - product bulletin numbering system i am also having problems involving the engine that involves the service bulletins. i am outraged because of 2 reasons. i paid a lot of hard earned money for a vehicle with the faith that the manufacturer would stand behind their product.. well i called them to find out what i could do to have these problems corrected. they told me there is nothing they can do..it was my problem. needless to say i am one very upset customer. i need to know who i can contact about this and write to. this is not right. i never got a recall notice on my car about any of the involved problems. so now i find out my car could be a death trap. from what i have read on the internet the rocker panel involves side impacts and could cause someone serious injury for whoever is driving this type of car. ts
