| Description of the problem | first problem is that the instrument cluster stops and starts working at random times not knowing how fast you're going. Chevy said they were familiar with the problem but would only fix it up to 80,000 miles. Not sure what kind of recall dose that. Second problem is when i got a flat tire, i nor the auto roadside assistance man could get the spare tire down. The car stranded until i took the entire wheel off the car and to the repair shop to get fixed and brought it back to re-install it. The dealer has been the only place that can actually get it to unlatch and admits it a bad design. I'm always apprehensive about getting a flat and being stranded. |
