AFTER PARKING VEHICLE TIRE WENT FLAT. NOTICED SEPARATION ON SIDEWALLS. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION. *AK

BRAKES CONTINUOUSLY LOCK, WHICH CAUSES TIRES TO LOCK AND THE CAR SKIDS AND PITCHES FORWARD. OUR DOOR LOCKS ARE BROKEN AND THE BOTTOM PORTION OF THE BACK SEAT IS COMING OUT FROM THE FLOOR. WHEN WE PURCHASED THE CAR, WE ASKED THE SALESPERSON (TIM WHITE) IF THE CAR WAS IN GOOD CONDITION AND IF THIS WAS A RENTAL CAR. HE SAID" IT HAD ONE OWNER." WHEN I REPEATED THIS TO THE MANAGER LAST WEEK, HE SAID IT DID. HE STATED THAT THE OWNER WAS THE RENTAL COMPANY IN FLORIDA. THEN I POINTED OUT TO THE MANAGER THAT ONE OWNER DID NOT MEAN ONE DRIVER. WITH IT BEING A RENTAL CAR IT HAS HAD MANY DRIVERS SOME NOT SO CAREFUL AS OTHERS. IF I HAD BEEN INFORRMED OF THE CARS TRUE HISTORY AND CONDITION, I WOULD NEVER HAVE PURCHASED THIS AUTOMOBILE. *AK( DOT NUMBER: )

MY REAR ANTI-LOCK BRAKES DO NOT WORK AT ALL WHEN I'M IN TWO-WHEEL DRIVE. I HAVE TO BE IN FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE BEFORE MY REAR BRAKES WORK AT ALL. I UNDERSTAND THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM BUT I CAN'T FIND A CHEVROLET DEALER THAT CAN HELP ME. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS I HAVE HAD MANY CLOSE CALLS DUE TO BRAKE FAILURE.
