Yabba dabba doo is what you'll be saying after you attempt to flintstone this hunk of junk from GM. Such a waste of metal. I'd love to see someone from corporate attempt to take their family who is recently paralyzed & a 13 yr old whose had 4 open heart surgeries try to pedal off the freeway bc it shut off & on while overheating & trying to pry the key out the ignitiin. I've towed it to and from the dealership to spend money I practically counted in change because I lost my job due to no dependable ride. Still paying notes on a car & mechanic fees has truly shown me how selfish & greedy some can be. I'm passed to the next person who keeps me on hold to inform me of how truly sorry they are that they can't help. Apparently GM feels it's safe so how about come save me from this headache, I'll gladly let you test drive. My favorite song is "every light in the car is in"

At 55mph I felt that I had plenty of time to stop in a hurry. I applied firm pressure on the breaks and the breaks locked up. The car began to go into a skidding motion and I had absolutely no control over the steering wheel to move out of the way, I could have avoided this collision if I turned to the right, but because I had no steering ability I rear-ended them from my skid. The ABS braking system, it is suppose to help me by pumping the brakes for me, but it didn't. I sustained a broken leg when the air bag deployed at my leg.

Brought it in for that and they said there was nothing wrong with

While driving at 65-70 mph on straight and level highway, steering would develop a "sticky or dead spot" on center when attempting to make a slight correction. It required increased effort to overcome the sticking spot resulting in oversteer causing the vehicle to over-veer. Very dangerous. NHTSA is aware of the defect. Hard to believe there is no recall..

- New Milford, NJ, USA

When making a slight correction on the hi-way the steering wheel feels as if it binds and the after a short turn of the wheel it suddenly takes off. It does this in either direction and you end up weaving back and forth trying to stay in your lane. The car is now beginning to do this at all speeds on the hi-way and I am beginning to feel unsafe. There seems to be no problem at slow speeds around the city.
