2003 GMC L SERIES Complaints

I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE AC AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON EVERY SINCE I GOT IT ALSO. I HAVE FIXED EVERYTHING I CAN THINK TO FIX TO GET THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT OFF AND IT STILL IS ON. I HAVE BEEN BACK AND FORTH WITH THE DEALERSHIP THAT I GOT THE CAR FROM THEN THEY STARTED GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND B/C THEY JUST DIDN'T WANT TO FIX IT ANY MORE. THEN I TRIED TO GET IT FIXED WERE I LIVE AND ONE PLACE COULD NOT FIX IT B/C THEY SAID THAT I HAD A LIFE TIME WARRANTY ON IT SO I HAD TO TAKE IT TO A GM DEALER SHIP. THE ORIGINAL COMPANY SAID THAT I DIDN'T HAVE A WARRANTY ON IT AT ONE POINT. SO I TOOK IT TO THE OTHER DEALERSHIP AND THEY FIXED IT ONE DAY , I CAN AND GOT IT A WEEK LATER AND KEEP IN MIND I WAS OUT OF A CAR AND I HAD TO WAIT FOR THEM TO PAY FOR A DAY OR TWO FOR THE RENTAL THEN WHEN I WENT PICK IT UP, IT STILL WAS NOT WORKING AND THEN I TOOK IT BACK TWICE AND THEY SAID THAT IT WAS THE CONDENSER. SO I TOOK MY VEHICLE AND TOOK IT TO JUST A REGULAR DEALERSHIP B/C THE AMT TO FIX IT WAS 1100 DOLLARS THERE. HE PUT DYE IN IT AND EVERYTHING AND THREE WKS TO SIX WKS LATER I AM BACK WERE I STARTED B/C IT IS NOT THE CONDENSER. I JUST WANT A TO GET THE AC FIX TO WERE IT WILL WORK AND KEEP WORKING. THIS IS A EVERY SUMMER THING AND IT IS TO HOT IN THE SUMMER PEOPLE DIE. IT IS 107 DEGREES OUT AND I ALREADY AM PAYING DOUBLE FOR A VEHICLE WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO TAKE ANOTHER CAR PAYMENT. I DON'T LIKE TO RECYCLE CARS EVERY THREE YRS. I WANT TO PAY IT OFF AND BE DONE WITH IT. I WANT TO SAVE AND INVEST NOT PAY DEALER SHIPS THE REST OF MY LIFE. PLEASE HELP ME TO GET A RESOLUTION. *TR

REPORTED EARLIER GAS ODOMETER BROKE WHEN FUELING VEHICLE ON 2 SEPERATE OCCASSIONS, FIRST TIME FIXED, THEN AGAIN WHILE FUELING GAS, IT BROKE. FAILED TO MENTION MY PROBLEMS WITH THE SPEEDODOMETER. IT WAS FLUCTUATING ALL THE WAY UP, THEN ALL THE WAY DOWN IRRATICALLY BEFORE IT DROPPED DOWN TO THE MIDDLE. *JB

I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT THE PROBLEM IM HAVING IS WITH MY WIFE'S 2000 CHEVY MALIBU, AND FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN READING THIS WILL CAUSE A NUMBER OF DEATHS AND CRASHES IF NOT ALREADY BUT NO ONE HAS FIGURED IT OUT YET. THE CAR WILL NOT START AT THE MOST IMPORTANT TIME MAYBE WHEN SHE MAY ONE DAY MAY BE TRYING GET AWAY FROM A RAPIST OR A MURDER. AND NO I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THERE ARE OVER THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE LIKE SOMEONE CHILD OR WIFE THAT IS RIGHT AT THIS MOMENT STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, OR MAYBE THE CAR TURN OFF ON I-95 WHILE THEY WERE DOING 70 ON THE INTERSTATE WITH A 18 WHEELER MOVING AT THE SAME SPEED THAT COULD NOT STOP BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEMS WITH THE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM AND IGNITION SWITCH. TO THE POINT THE CAR WILL CUT OFF WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING IT DOWN THE ROAD WITHOUT NO WARNING, AND IF YOU MAKE IT SAFE TO WHERE YOU ARE GOING THE CAR WILL NOT START IF YOU TRY TO. YOU HAVE TO WAIT 10 MIN. TO TRY TO START IT. THERE MANY PEOPLE OUT THERE HAVING THIS PROBLEM CHEVY IS NOT HELP OUT ANY. IT WILL NOT GIVE A TROUBLE CODE, SO THEY SKIP AROUND WITH UNEEDED REPAIRS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM. AND WHO IS TO SAY HOW MANY PEOPLE THAT MANY HAVE BEEN HURT OR KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS THAT MAY NOT KNOWN ABOUT THIS. IT IS A DEATH TRAP AND NEEDS TO HAVE A LOOK INTO. THANKS *TR

THE IGNITION KEY CONTINUES TO GET LOCK OR STUCK IN THE IGNITION. THIS REPRESENTS A SECONDARY SAFETY ISSUE IN THAT CAR HAS KEY IN THE IGNITION AT ALL TIMES. BATTERY COULD DRAIN LEAVING PASSENGERS AND DRIVERS STRANDED IN UNSAFE OR UNABLE TO REACT TO UNSAFE SITUATIONS (CRIMINAL PURSUERS, ASSAILANTS, ETC). BECAUSE YOUR CAR HAS BEEN DRAIN DUE TO AN IGNITION DEFECT THAT LOCKS YOUR KEY IN THE IGNITION. *JB

I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY 2006 TRAILBLAZER LS EXT AS LISTED IN YOUR 11/08/04 RECALL WITH THE 2002-04 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZERS CONCERNING MY BRAKE LIGHTS THAT DIDN'T LIGHT UP ON THE LEFT SIDE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS ACTIVATED. THE TURN SIGNAL WORKS AND WHEN THE HEAD LIGHTS ARE ON THE BULB LIGHTS UP. IS THERE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM?

DOORS RATTLE AND SHIFT WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THE WINDOWS ALSO RATTLE, PARTICULARLY ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, FRONT AND BACK. ALSO, THE AIR/HEAT BLOWER IS STUCK ON #4. IT WON'T BLOW ON ANY OTHER SETTINGS

THE 2006 CHEVROLET IMPALA HAD A TECHNICAL BULLETIN ON A POWER STEERING HOSE I WAS NEVER NOTIFED OFF. THE HOSE EXPLODED, AND THE CAR COULD NOT MOVE. IT WAS TOWED TO THE 1ST DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED, BUT IT WOULD NOT STEER OUT OF THE BAY. THEY FLUSHED THE POWER STEERING UNIT, AND WITH DAYS IT WOULD NOT STEER PROPERLY. I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP, WHICH AFTER TWO VISITS, DETERMINED IT NEEDED A NEW POWER STEERING PUMP. THEN THE ACCELERATOR STUCK TO THE FLOOR WHILE TURNING. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND A NEW ACCELRATOR WAS INSTALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO ME AGAIN AND ATHE STEERING WENT OUT, THIS TIME, I NEARLY HIT A TELEPHONE POLE WHILE TURNING. THE DEALERSHIP TOOK THE CAR IN AND REPLACED THE RACK AND PINION. THE CAR AGAIN DID NOT STEER PROPERLY, AND I NEARLY HIT A PHONE POLE ON THE WAY HOME. AT ONE POINT THE SECOND DEALERSHIP PUT OVER 200 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. GM SAID THE CARWAS. IN OPERATING ORDER . T HAD LESS THAN 17,000 MILES ON IT, AND DEMANDED I PICK UP THE VEHI OR BE CHARGED STORAGE FEES. I HAVE NEARLY WRECKED THE CAR DUE TO MECHANICAL DEFECTS ON THREE SEPERATE OCCASIONS. *AK

I NOTICE SMOKE COMING FROM THE STEERING COLUMN, INSIDE MY CAR, QUITE OFTEN- AT LEAST 2 TIMES A WEEK. MY BRAKES WEAR OUT FASTER THAN THEY SHOULD. I HAVE TO REPLACE THE DRIVERSIDE HUB ASSEMBLY KIT EVERY 3-6 MONTHS BECAUSE IT STARTS CLICKING THEN WEARS OUT THE BRAKES IF I DON'T GET IT DONE- AT THE CHEAPEST 100 EVERY TIME. CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN A WRECK AND I DO NOT KNOW WHY IT DOES THIS. *TR

MY CAR WAS RUNNING ONE DAY WHEN I WAS IN A STORE AND I CAME OUT AND GOT IN AND IT WAS DINGING AND LIGHTS WERE FLASHING RADIO DIDN'T WORK FAN WAS NOT AS STRONG AS USUAL. AND ONCE IN AWHILE I WON'T EVEN HAVE LIGHTS UNLESS I HOLD IN THE BRIGHTS SWITCH. BUT THAT WAS JUST THE START IT GOT MORE FREQUENT THAT THIS WOULD HAPPEN THEN, IT WOULN'T START I WOULD TRY FOR HOURS TO GET IT TO START I WOULD HAVE TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY AND WAIT AND THEN EVEN AFTER DOING THIS IT MIGHT NOT START. AND THEN JUST DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IT WILL DING AND FLASH RAID SHUTS OFF SAYS "LOCKED" WHAT WHAT IS THIS NOW. SO I WILL STOP SHUT OFF WONT START, FINALLY STARTS THEN NONE OF THE GAUGES WORK OR RADIO OR EVEN THE A/C. I HAVE LOST TWO JOBS BECAUSE OF MY CAR NOT STARTING AND BEING LATE FOR WORK OR NOT BEING ABLE TO MAKE IT CAUSE IT WONT START. NOW I HAVE TAKEN IT TO ABOUT TEN DEALER SHIPS , WELL EVERY PLACE TELLS ME SAME THING THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH YOUR CAR. MAY 30,2007 WAS THE WORST TIME WITH MY CAR, IT WAS RAINING REALLY HARD, MY CAR STARTED TO ACT UP LIKE USUAL MY A/C WOULDN'T WORK IT WAS REALLY HUMID AND ABOUT 85 DEGREES AND I GOT TO A TOWN AND SHUT OFF THE CAR AND DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY AS USUAL ALSO AND NOTHING HAPPEN AND THIS WENT ON FOR 2 HOURS AND STILL NOTHING HAPPENED THE WORST PART ABOUT THIS IS I HAD MY 6 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER WITH ME, MY FIANCE IS OUT OF TOWN WE ARE AN HOUR FROM HOME AND MY FRIEND HAS A FLAT TIRE AND MY PARENTS ON VACATION I HAD NO RIDE OR ANY BODY TO CALL AND I COULDN'T CALL A TOW SERVICE BECAUSE I ONLY HAD $10.00 TO MY NAME I HAD TO BUNDLE MY DAUGHTER UP IN HER BLANKET AND START WALKING HOME, I WALKED FOR ABOUT 20MINS BEFORE ANY ONE STOPPED TO PICK US UP. I AM SO SICK AND TIRED OF THIS HAPPENING AND WOULD LIKE THIS PROBLEM TO BE RESOLVED BUT I DON'T THINK IT SHOULD HAVE TO BE AT MY EXPENSE WHEN IT OBVIOUSLY IS NOT JUST HAPPENING TO ME! PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME !! I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!!! AKL *TR
