My truck slowly started getting worse. First, the dinging noise that your car makes qhen the keys are left in the ignition or if you leave your lights on, my truck would make this sound with no light on or key in ignition causing the battery to drain. Then the gauges started acting crazy, completely not working at times. Now my truck will not start, it turns over but something doesn't catch or fire. I have replaced the battery numerous times and the spark plugs are new.

The problem usually appears in the summer, and rarely occurs during the winter. It started back in June of 2012, occurred several more times before the end of the year. Then starting in June of 2013, it began acting up an average of once a week until August. When it acts up, I will be driving, and the truck will buck a couple of times and the needle on the tach will jump up and down, and usually some of the warning lights will flash on and off and the doors try to unlock. It basically acts like the ignition is trying to shut off but gets flicked back into the on position. It will usually have a couple of episodes where it will do this for a few seconds and then run fine for a little while. When it does this, I usually have enough time to pull off to the side of the road to shut it off and let it sit for a while, but there have been several times where it dies immediately. When it dies, I have to leave it in neutral and try to coast until I can pull off onto the shoulder. If I try to restart it while in neutral, the steering column locks, which could cause me to veer off the road, and when the truck is off, the airbags won't deploy. I have taken it to 6 mechanics, and none of them have been able to find the problem. I have heard of other S-10 owners having the same trouble, and in light of the recently uncovered issues with GM ignition switches, I thought I should report my issue.

The steering column multifunction switch (hazard) has stopped functioning causing a cascade failure to braking system lights, dash lights and ignition.

The reason there is so many accidents & deaths with cell phone use is the phone & auto makers don't really care. All that needs to be done is have the cell phone receive a signal from the vehicle speed sensor to interrupt or stop the incoming/outgoing cell phone signal as soon as the wheels on the car move. When the car is parked again the cell phone signal re-activates. Come on people with the electronic wizards we have today this would be a slam dunk.the phone &car makers may have to spend another dollar or 2, on safety but I think it is worth it.the "texting and talking violations would decrease also. I will be surprised if this is even read or forwarded the people that really care. All they care about today is $$$. please prove me wrong".

1. while driving the truck at aproximately 65 mph with the cruise control and air conditioner on, but no radio the truck just died while I was in the outer lane of the highway. No noise, it just lost power and died. I manged to get the truck into the other lane and off the highway as it slowed down luckely with out injury to myself, my passanger or anyone else on the highway. 2. on a truck with no more then 48,362 miles I experienced transmission failure. According to the mechanic the transmission pump exploded with no apparent cause. All parts on the truck appear to be in new condition even though the vehical is 5 years old. Several of the original stickers from the factory are still visable with no sign of ware. I have all maintaince records on the truck available to show it has been properly maintained. The transmission flued and filter where not scheduled for maintaince until 50,000 miles. 3. the transmission had to be replaced on the truck and I have saved the old parts for examination. The mechanic noted that the original part was reordered but had been changed by the manufacture to a new part # due to problems with the old. Transmission parts where replaced with new General Motors parts.
