WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 35-40 MPH MY CAR ENGINE SHUT OFF, WHEEL AND BREAKS TOO AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO A CAR SHOP TO BE LOOKED AT AND FIXED. ONCE THE CAR WAS THERE IT STARTED FINE AND WAS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN FOR SHORT DISTANCES BEFORE THE ENGINE WOULD SHUT OFF AGAIN. IT TOOK ABOUT 2 WEEKS TO FINALLY FIGURE OUT IT WAS A FUSE IN THE ENGINE THAT WAS NOT LETTING POWER THROUGH. WELL, THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED IN 2013 SUMMER WHERE THE SAME PART HAD TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. *TR

I HAD BEEN HAVING A FEW PROBLEMS WITH THE HEADLIGHTS. THE WOULD JUST RANDOMLY TURN OFF AT NIGHT. THEY ONLY WORKED WHEN THEY WANTED TO. ON THE MORNING OF OCTOBER 17TH I STOPPED AT THE STORE ON MY WAY TO SCHOOL AND ONCE I CAME OUT OF THE STORE (ABOUT 10 MINUTES LATER) I SMELT SOMETHING BURNING AND NOTICED SMOKE WAS COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. WHEN THE HOOD WAS POPPED THE RELAY BOX WAS COMPLETELY MELTED AND THE WIRING HARNESS HAD A FIRE STARTING TO IGNITE. I CAUGHT IT RIGHT AFTER IT STARTED. GM CLAIMS THEY KNOW NOTHING OF IT AND IS REFUSING TO COVER THE COSTS. AFTER READING MANY INSTANCES ON THIS I WOULD LIKE HELP IN GETTING SOMETHING STARTED. THERE IS A SERIOUS DEFECT WITH THIS VEHICLE. THANKFULLY MY CHILD WAS ALREADY DROPPED OFF AT SCHOOL AND NO ONE WAS HURT. I KNOW GM KNOWS OF THIS ISSUE AND DOESN'T WANT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. MY CAR IS STILL AT THE DEALERSHIP AND IS COSTING CLOSE TO $3,000 TO HAVE ALL OF THESE PARTS REPLACED. I THINK GM NEEDS TO STEP UP AND YOU ARE THE GUYS THAT ARE GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE THEM TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. I AM DOING EVERYTHING IN MY POWER TO TRY TO GET A RECALL STARTED AND TO HAVE THEM PAY FOR THEIR FAULTS. PLEASE HELP!!!!! *TR

I NOTICED ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER PURCHASING THIS AUTOMOBILE THAT THERE WAS A VERY LOUD RATTLING NOISE SEEMING TO COME FROM THE DASH AREA. I HAVE IGNORED IT UNTIL TODAY WHEN MY SON WAS DRIVING ME TO CHURCH. HE TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT BECAUSE IT COULD BE SERIOUS. THAT IS WHY I AM NOW CHECKING INTO RECALL NOTICES FOR THIS VEHICLE. *TR
