I drive my car for Canada post, so I do lots of mileage, but after owning my car for around 5 months I went to come to a stop and realized I had very little brakes, I had to pump them repeatedly to stop at a intersection, I continued to the next block where I opened the door and pressed the brakes to notice brake fluid pouring out of the wheel.I took the tire off and seen that the brake line had been rubbing on my cv boot, the line on the passenger side was grooved from rubbing on my cv joint and in turn broke the cv boot and broke the brake line, I went to GM and asked if there was a recall on this and they said no so I replaced the line myself with a little modification to stop it from rubbing but now I got a cv joint that is about to brake due to this brake line can you please check to see if this is just my car or others all so, I have all so had more brake problems from the day I bought this car such as ABS locking up on meat intersections I think due to traction control I have gone to take off and had to change the automatic transmission to 1 St gear in order to cross a road safely I reported this to my dealer I bought the car from and they did nothing, even when all the ABS lights came on and traction light came on 4 days after I bought this car, they reset the computer and gave it back, in turn I brought it to another garage and they told me the ABS computer is blown, I figure I will tell the whole store due to all the braking problems I have maybe that is why my hose broke.

On the date mentioned below, my daughter was driving to work when the car wouldn't go into 3rd geer. The RPM's wouldn't go over 3 and the car wouldn't go over 30 mph. No previous problems with the car at all. We took it to the Chevy dealer and they wanted $400 just to drop the pan and look at the car. Since my daughter needed the vehicle for work, I took the car to a reputable company in the local area (they also service my company trucks) and they told me the transmission was shot, 3rd and 4th geer were gone. They agreed to work with me on the payments since I didn't have $1300 to cover a used transmission and the labor. I purchased the car in Aug 2002 with only 16K miles, when the transmission went out it had only 27K. I've never heard of this and can get no assistance from Chevy.... very upset at their lack of understanding and cooperation at assisting in the financial aid.

When starting vehicle there is a very bad gas smell coming from it. Need to drive with windows down because of the smell. When turning on heat or air conditioningthere is a burning smell. When stepping on gas it hesitates, as if it is going to stall out.

The car has repeatly refused to change out of 2nd gear, one occasion I was going around 47 miles per hour and the just stop moving the RPM's read around 4 the, and the car read about 45 mles per hour but it was not mving. The car behind me had no idea why I stopped because there was no brake lights. This has happened repeatly and I am afraid to drive the hwy with this vehicle. My family, friends and anyone behind me are in danger each time we get in the vehicle. If someone frm behind did hit me they would think it was all there fault becuase the re-ended me. The car can be going over 60 miles an hour one moment and back down to 30 the next moment. I do not feel save in this vehicle, nor do my friends and family that have been in the car with and those that have driven the car themselves.
