I was driving down the highway at 70mph (posted speed limit) when the RPM gauge dropped to 0 and the car lost power. I was able to ease my way onto the shoulder but with no power breaks I had to mash down the break petal finally coming to a stop. The vehicle was towed back into town and am still waiting to find out the cause of this issue. The car has less than 80,000 miles on it! I have dealt with the ignition switch recall, the timing chain has been replaced twice already, the headlights and break lights have to be changed every 3 months just about, and now this!

Timing chain is off time after so many miles the vehicle was stationary and still is stationary due to a rattle noise and the engine not wanting to run properly.

When pep boys first removed the passenger rear engine cradle bolt back in March, the factory nut broke off from being welded to the car body. When a local mechanic recently removed the bolt for related service, he showed it to me. The threads on the middle of the bolt shaft were all seemingly chewed up. The local mechanics best guess was that the air conditioner condenser drains on to that area, which originally weakened the factory welded nut, and causing corrosion on the engine cradle bolt. The bolt won't last long, and I have ordered a replacement bolt, at my expense, to replace the prematurely 'worn' original bolt. Unfortunately, not much can be done to restore having a factory welded nut to receive said bolt. Had I not commissioned the additional work, I may have had a serious accident in the future, unaware of the bolt corroding away!

At the end of September 2013 I noticed a disturbing noise when I started my car. It was a loud rattling sound that lasted about 3 seconds when cranking my car. To my surprise the timing chain had snapped in half. On October 20-21, 2013, the timing chain set was removed and replaced by a trusted mechanic who informed me that I was lucky the engine had not been damaged. My complaint in question is why at only 54,540 miles did the timing chain snap in half" my next question is have there been any other complaints made by other owners or manufacturers of this model relating to this issue" I was frustrated as it was having to have the set replaced at only 54,540 miles, but I am even more frustrated with the latest recalls on my car (13454 and 14063). Especially when I learned GM had known the potential for this recall for an extensive amount of time. I loved this car when I got it, but now I have begun to question the entire integrity of my vehicle structurally, electrically, and mechanically. Even if nothing results from filing this complaint, honestly all I want is a human response that gives me some sort of belief that someone gives a[ xxx] about this matter.

While driving on icy roads, the car began to slide and spin out of control. As I attempted to correct the motion of the car, the engine switched off. And because the engine had switched off, it became impossible to turn the steering wheel. The car spun around at least 3 complete rotations (of 360 degrees) before sliding to a stop on the side of the road. The gear shift was still in drive, and could not immediately be changed to park. But naturally, the car had to be restarted, which it finally did after much effort. And the car could be put into park after the engine had restarted.
