HAD TO CHARGE BATTERY SO I COULD TAKE CAR IN FOR IGNITION RECALL. SINCE I DON'T USE THE CAR MUCH ANYMORE. UPON TRYING TO START VEHICLE, ENGINE BACKFIRED AND UPPER INTAKE MANIFOLD EXPLODED AND PIECES ALL OVER THE DRIVEWAY. THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE AS DESCRIBED IN THE 2004 RECALL WHICH WAS PERFORMED ON THE FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR. SINCE THE RECALL. I DID HAVE TO REPLACE THE FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR AGAIN AROUND 2011. I ALSO HAD REPLACED THE UPPER AND LOWER INTAKE GASKETS THAT WERE FAULTY OEM PARTS. THE UPPER PLASTIC MANIFOLD WAS REPLACED TO THE NEWER DESIGN. ALTHOUGH IT BEING PLASTIC IS JUST AN ENGINEERING CATASTROPHE STILL DOESN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM WITH WARPING FROM HEAT. ANYWAY. HERE'S MY DIAGNOSIS. FUEL INJECTORS CONTINUED TO SPRAY FUEL INTO ENGINE AFTER THE FIRST ATTEMPT OF STARTING VEHICLE CAUSED BY A WEAK BATTERY. I SAY THIS BECAUSE AFTER TURNING THE KEY OFF AFTER THE FIRST ATTEMPT I HEARD THE FUEL PUMPING FOR AT LEAST 10 SECONDS. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. AFTER 1 MINUTE I TRIED TO RESTART AND THATS WHEN PARTS STARTED FLYING. GOOD THING NO HELPERS HAD THEIR HEADS UNDER THE HOOD WHEN THIS HAPPENED. *TR

THIS VEHICLE KEPT CUTTING OFF ON ME WHILE GOING 55 MPH DOWN THE ROAD. I TOOK IT TO HUBERT VESTER CHEVROLET AND THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. THEY REPLACED THE SWITCH AT A COST OF $388.98 INVOICE NO 73404C THIS STILL DID NOT FIX MY VEHICLE. TO THIS DAY IT IS STILL CUTTING OFF WHILE GOING DOWN THE ROAD AT 55 MPH I AM SCARED TO DRIVE BUT COULD NOT SELL IT FOR THIS REASON. I HAVE HAD THE CAR ALL THIS TIME AND NOW FIND OUT THAT IT HAS THIS RECALL FOR CUTTING OFF WHILE GOING DOWN THE ROAD. I WOULD LIKE A REFUND OF MY MONEY AS THEY DID NOT FIX MY VEHICLE.

AFTER I CONTACTED THE DEALER, THE APPOINTMENT WAS MADE TO REPAIR ALL RECALL ISSUES. RECEIVED NOTIFICATION THAT ALL PARTS WERE AT THE DEALERSHIP. ONCE I ARRIVED AT THE DEALER, WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE A THREE HOUR WAIT. DROVE APPROX. 100 MILES TO DEALER (BILL GATTON CHEVROLET-CADILLAC). ONE RECALL ISSUE WAS RESOLVED, RESULTING IN ANOTHER APPOINTMENT TO BE MADE WHEN OTHER PARTS ARRIVED. NO PRECAUTIONS WERE MADE TO ENSURE VEHICLE PROTECTED AGAINST SERVICE DEPARTMENT INJURY TO VEHICLE, IE, NO PAPER MATS PLACED IN CAR, DIRT INSIDE CAR, AND KEYS LEFT IN THE VEHICLE ON THE DEALER LOT. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN MAINTAINED IN A PRISTINE CONDITION, (51,000 ACTUAL MILES). HAS NEVER BEEN DRIVEN ON SALT OR UNDER ANY BAD WEATHER CONDITIONS. THE DEALER EVEN COMMENTED THAT THE VEHICLE APPEARED TO BE BRAND NEW. I WOULD WELCOME A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION SURVEY FOR THIS DEALERSHIP. *TR
