They have replaced the battery 3 times and removed an add on feature that they blamed for the drain on the electrical system. I requested copies of all records for this vehicle but were never given them.

My steering has locked on me while driving, my car would not start due to crack in the battery and acid leak, my car had to be towed to repair shop due to starter cable popping off. Currently, I am stranded due to my brakes losing power somehow.

Had come to a stop, was making left turn, steering failed to operate & could not make turn. Vehicle could go straight. Battery light came on. Vehicle towed to mechanic. Noticed tensioner belt had broken. Had no warning that it broke.
- Salina, KS, USA
Battery failed due to positive post separating from case. This caused battery acid to leak onto front brake line causing brakes to fail. Chevrolet contacted and notified but not concerned with potential safety problem. Had speed been increased, the possibility of death/serious injury was imminent. Several mechanics in local area stated that acdelco batteries have a history of this type failure.
