MY CAR TURNS OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. THREE TIMES I HAVE BEEN ON 45 MPH ROADS, AND HAVE 2 SMALL KIDS. THIS ISN'T THE ONLY MAJOR ISSUE MY CAR. BUT FIRST THE DIGITAL DISPLAY READS ENGINE DISABLED OR ENGINE LOSING POWER THEN ENGINE DISABLED AND LOSES ALL FUNCTION. THERE WAS A RECALL OVER A YEAR AGO FOR THIS MODEL SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING SUPPOSEDLY DUE TO WEIGHT ON THE KEY RING. AFTER THE DEALER FIXED IT THE ISSUE STOPPED UNTIL 3 MNTHS AGO. I CAN ONLY GO A BLOCK BEFORE THE ENGINE DISABLES NOW, IT PROGRESSIVELY HAPPENED SOONER AND SOONER. A FRIEND WHO IS OLD BUDDIES WITH A DIAGNOSTICS SPECIALIST INTRODUCED ME AND HE WAS ABLE TO TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT WAS GOING ON TO FINE DETAILS. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE ABOUT ANY RECALLS AND RELAYED THE INFO HE'D GIVEN ME AND THEY DOWN PLAYED IT LIKE THEY GUY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT. THE DEALER THINKS ITS A THROTTLE OR ENGINE PROBLEM. THE GUY I KNOW SAID THE COMPUTER CHIP IN THE KEY LIKELY GOT MESSED UP POSSIBLY FROM HAVING MY CELL PHONE NEXT TO IT A LOT, THAT THE PART IN THE IGNITION THAT READS THE SIGNAL FROM THE KEY IS GETTING MIXED INFO AND SIGNALS THE ENGINE TO SHUT DOWN . HE ALSO SAID THAT ONCE IT HAPPENS, A LOOP IS CREATED TO WHERE EVERY TIME I TURN THEY KEY IT STARTS THE CYCLE OVER WHERE EVERYTHING IS OKAY IN THE BEGINNING BUT THE INFO GETS MISREAD OVER N OVER WHICH IS WHY HE SAID I SHOULD GET A NEW KEY- AND (I THINK THIS IS WHAT HE SAID) TO REPLACE TO WHOLE IGNITION COLUMN SO ALL PARTS INVOLVED WOULD BE NEW. HE ALSO GETS HIS PARTS WHOLESALE AND IS NOT TRYING TO RIP ME OFF. NEXT PROBLEM CAR BURNS OIL! THE LAST TWO TIMES I HAD OIL CHECKED, NOTHING ON THE DIPSTICK, I GET IT DONE EVERY 3000MILES. WALMART MADE ME SIGN A PAPER STATING THERE WAS NO OIL ON DIPSTICK. GAS LINE CORRODED, SMELL OF GAS THROUGHOUT CAR, HAS WHOLE PIECE REPLACED. THESE ARE SERIOUS WHY IS CHEVROLET DOING NOTHING BAD BUSINESS
