Description of the problem | My vehicle would not start on a trip to florida and my boyfriend and i had to push start it all the way back to ohio. As soon as we got back i got back i got the clutch switch repaired which was $300. Then i went on a second trip to florida in july and once i arrived i got in my car to go somewhere and it would not start yet again. I took it to a repair shop where they could not find them problem yet still charged me $220 because it just started randomly. As soon as i took it back to the place i was staying in florida and turned it off, i tried to start it again and it would not. My sister and i push started it and i took it to a chevy dealer repair place and they informed me the clutch switch needed programmed and i paid $90 for that. The car was finally starting smoothly again until 10/27/2014 when again the car would not start. I took it to the chevy dealership o bought it at and they informed me that i i needed a new ignition switch and that it would cost $315. I am tired of this car i have only had it for four years and it only has 65000 miles on it. This has been a continuing problem and she be included in the ignition recall because it was obviously a faulty part. Because of the problems i have had with this car i will never by chevy or gm for that matter ever again. |
