| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I purchased the car & immediately had to have the brakes fixed by the dealership. in 3/05 had complete look at car -at chevy. dealership, they flushed radiator, clean fuel lines-things along those lines "to make my car run better". in june of 05 i started noticing a small puddle of water under my vehicle & it started overheating. was told my repair man that radiator cap needed replacing. that seemed to help a little. by october 05 the car was leaking antifreeze from under the car. didn't have the money to have it fixed so i didn't drive it because i was a stay at home mom. dec 05 i went to work and its been downhill. my car now will overheat if it idles for very long, leaks antifreeze (i have to add coolant every morning), and we was told that it was the probably the intake manifold gasket gone bad which will cost about 900.00. this is just 1 of the many problems we have experienced since the purchase. *jb |
