OIL CONSUMPTION IS 1 QUART EVERY 500 MILES THE DEALERSHIP LOCATED AT 16400 W COLFAX AVE GOLDEN CO HAD ARE VEHICLE FOR TWO WEEKS RUNNING DIAGNOSTICS TESTS AND USING A ON BOARD COMPUTER HOOKED UP TO THE VEHICLE WITH NO ANSWER FOR WHY THE VEHICLE WAS LOSING POWER AND GAS PEDAL GOING TO THE FLOOR WITH NO CODES PULLING UP AS THEY MIMICKED THE PROBLEM WITH A ON BOARD COMPUTER HOOKED UP TO THE VEHICLE WHILE A GM TECH TEST DROVE THE TERRAIN THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM FOR DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ITS LIKE GOING 45 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND SLAMMING ON YOU'R BRAKES THEN THE VEHICLE KICKS BACK INTO GEAR.MY WIFE IS A NURSE AND NEEDS HER VEHICLE TO GET TO AND FROM WORK ESPECIALLY WITH COVID-19 IF SHE CANT MAKE IT TO WORK PEOPLE COULD DIE COVID IS NOTHING TO PLAY AROUND WITH AND NURSES ARE NOT ALLOWED TO CALL IN WHILE COVID IS GOING ON THIS PROBLEM WITH THIS TERRAIN NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED IF A GM CERTIFIED TECH DOES NOT KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS VEHICLE WHO WOULD.

PISTONS ARE BAD AND DEALERSHIP AT 16400 W COLFAX AVE,GOLDEN CO 80401 REFUSES TO REPLACE AND OIL CONSUMPTION IS TO MUCH. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR TO LONG I WAS TOLD BY MANAGEMENT AFTER I PAID FOR A HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP REPLACEMENT IF THE PROBLEM WAS STILL THERE IT WOULD BE FIXED AT NO CHARGE TO ME. SINCE THEN THE MANAGER QUIT AND THERE IS ALL DIFFERANT STAFF AND I HAVE TRIED THE CORPORATE OFFICE STILL NOT RESOLVED THE ONLY THING LEFT IS SMALL CLAIMS COURT WITH A CAP AT $7000.I DO NOT WANT TO GO TO COURT IF I REALLY DO NOT HAVE TO BUT IF NECESSARY I ALREADY HAVE THE PAPERWORK TO FILE.THE DEALERSHIP HAD MY VEHICLE FOR OVER TWO WEEKS RUNNING DIAGNOSTICS WITH NO ANSWER I ASKED THEM TO CHECK THE PRESSURE COMING FROM THE OIL CAP WHEN YOU REMOVE IT.NOTHING THEY JUST REPLACED THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP AND THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND CAN CAUSE A WRECK IF NOT FIXED. LOSES POWER AND GAS PEDAL HITS THE FLOOR I HAD TO PAY FOR A RENTAL CAR THE WHOLE TIME THE DEALERSHIP HAD MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY SAID THEY WOULD GET US A LONER VEHICLE AND THAT NEVER HAPPENED THIS WILL BE MY LAST ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER OUT OF COURT.

CAR BURNS OIL QUICKLY. I HAVE TO GET FREQUENT OIL CHANGES. TWO WEEKS AGO OIL HAD LEEKAED INTO MY CAR.

CAR IS MISFIRING AND SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING. I WAS DRIVING AND CAR STOOPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. I TURNED ON MY CAR AND PULLED OFF AND CAR CUT OFF.

WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN THE WIPERS BROKE TWICE. THE BUSHINGS BREAK. I ALMOST GOT HIT BY A SEMI TRUCK..

I WAS DRIVING IN THE RAIN ON THE HIGHWAY AND MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS JUST STOPPED WORKING. THE MOTOR STILL RUNS BUT THE WIPERS WILL NOT MOVE

THE DEFROSTER WILL NOT SWITCH AIR FLOW TO VENT. THIS CAUSES THE ENTIRE CAR TO FOG UP CONSTANTLY ESPECIALLY THE WINDSHIELD DURING RAIN OR HUMID WEATHER. THIS OBSTRUCTS VIEW AND CREATES A LIFE THREATENING HAZARD. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING CONSTANTLY ON HIGHWAY I SIDE STREET.

WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN, MY WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPPED IN THE UP POSITION AND WOULDN'T MOVE. THE MOTOR WAS STILL WORKING BECAUSE YOU COULD HEAR IT CYCLING, BUT THE WIPERS WOULDN'T MOVE. FORTUNATELY THE RAIN WASN'T VERY HEAVY, I WAS DRIVING ON CITY STREETS ABLE TO GET HOME SAFELY DESPITE THE IMPAIRED VISIBILITY. HAD THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY IN SOME OF THE RECENT RAIN WE HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

ENGINE FAILURE DUE TO OIL CONSUMPTION NO CHECK OIL LIGHT CAME ON. HAPPENS WITH NO WARNING.
