We have only has this car for about nine months & 3 mos ago, we had to take it to the dealership because we got a power down, all the dash lights flashed, then power steering went out......while driving. (Fun, right?) The dealership says they found no cause & everything was working fine when they looked it over. I had them keep it 3 days & drive it to ensure it would not reoccur before I took repossession of it. Now it gets to go to the dealer AGAIN tomorrow - for the same symptoms. I don't want to be a highway statistic just before they decide to do a recall on the brain box or whatever it is that is - causing the problems. I drive 34 mi per day to & from work and bought this car for RELIABLE (...it's NEW,right?) and SAFE (...it's NEW, right?) transportation. This is no small matter - my life and the life of my passengers are at risk.

This is the LAST CHEVY I will EVER BUY!!!!!
