Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When coming to a complete stop vehicle lurched forward about five feet. Also, vehicle stalled intermittently, and had a rough idle. Vehicle was taken to the dealer four times and mechanic replaced the lower intake gasket/ EGR valve twice, and fuel injectors. None of these repairs resolved the problem.”
NHTSA complaint #10063248, filed 2004-03, 113,000 miles“I purchased the van used in 2000 and it burned down in 2001. I have had the wireharnes, aircompressor and fuel injection (recall) all repaired by dealer. While driving on hyway engine made loud noise and failed. Pulled over and relized that van was on fire. Fire deptment shut off fire. Van was totaled. Financed by gmac”
NHTSA complaint #756380, filed 2002-01“I had received a letter awhile back stating GM was having problems with the linear egrs on the 4.3l engines and if any problems occurred to bring my vehicle into a GM dealership to have corrected. The prblem has occurred, but I can't find the letter and the dealership is telling me that TSB was only on their trucks.”
NHTSA complaint #710692, filed 1999-08“I recieved a letter of recall on the EGR value the same day I picked up my car from the shop, where they had informed me that the EGR was sticking open and they had cleaned and replaced it. All plugs fouled. Two weeks later the same sticking is occurring. Gm says that my vehicle is past the milage for reimbusement of repair cost. Can they be made responsible for repair expense regardless of the milage?”
NHTSA complaint #704056, filed 1999-03“I have a problem with the EGR valve. Gm offered to replace it before 75000 miles. Nfortunately my van has more than that and Chevrolet dealer will not replace it under warranty. I think it should be consider for a safety recall campaign since when EGR fails it stops the engine operation and power steering and power brakes. I almost hit hit cars waiting at the toll at florida turnpike when my EGR got stuck while letting of the gas pedal to begin braking. I installed brand new EGR but that didnt fix the problem. No help from GM.”
