problem #2

Impala LS

  • Automatic transmission
  • 85,514 miles

This is an intermittent problem. When I go to start the car, the starter will hang up. Not sure if this is a starter problem is something else. Any suggestions?

problem #1

Dec 012016

Impala LX 3.2L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 89,000 miles

Upon starting this CRAP car it squeals, and making turns it would grind, had it in many times, problem never seemed to be remedied. They changed belts, the pullies, changed the starter....and other attempts to fix the problem, none of which helped. We went to a different repair shop, was told that GM is aware of this problem. The "bandaid" remedy is running cold-weather starter fluid. He told me that GM has fixed the cause of the problem in the "new models" but I'll be damned if I'll waste my money on a Chevy ever again. Why would I care to buy a vehicle that the manufacturer knows they produced a crap product but will not take care of the consumer!!!!
