THE FIRST TIME I HAD PROBLEMS WAS ABOUT A MONTH AGO WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN TO LYNCH SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND IT WAS TAKEN CARED OF THAT SAME DAY. ON 10/25/2002 MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AND IT WOULD NOT START FOR ME AT ALL. I HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO GILLESPIE CHEVY DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND AS OF TODAY 10/29/2002 MY VEHICLE IS STILL THERE . I WAS TOLD THAT IT IS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM BUT THAT WAS ALL I WAS TOLD. NOW I'M JUST SITTING AND WAITING. DT
