Vehicle began turning over slower on startup until eventually it would not turn over. Replaced the starter on my own after watching YouTube videos on how to do it. Took about 1.5 hours.

First the car overheated. Typical of this piece of crap model. Then, the battery drained. Then, checked the battery it was fine but the alternator was overcharging the battery. Now it won't turn over. Why they have not recalled the car for heating problems, I don't know!

Ive had my impala for about 2 years now and all of a sudden it starts this crap. It needs a tune-up but im not sure thats why its not starting. It just recently started this problem. At first it would crank up for a few minutes, then everything would shut down. Does anyone know what the problem is?? If so do tell.

Ok. Tell me why I have to get my car towed 10 miles away from my location because of the Anti-Theft systems is faulty? Why is there no access to do-it-yourselfers? This is absolutely necessary - I done paid a locksmith 80.00 dollars to come to my house to tell me he can't help me... what the heck?
That being said, there should be a class action lawsuit against Chevy for making it to where only they make scammers that say they can fix it and its a jerk move to make it to where if someone needed a key made, they would have to get your car towed to Chevy... SO DON'T BUY A REMADE KEY BECAUSE THEN YOU WILL HAVE TO GET TOWED TO CHEVY AND PAY 100S OF DOLLARS.
