“Dealers refuse to repair vehicle stating the extended special coverage has expired. Airbag light will not shut off due to wire harness problem and GM knows about the problem. I tried to get the car repaired but local dealer did not have the parts. And the coverage expired. . I receive the notice in may 2016. My car met the mileage standard, less than 120 k miles and within 10 years of ownership.”

I can drive the car and when parked I simply park where I can drive forward and apply the hand brake as it will restart in neutral.”

“I have a 2007 Corvette and the service active handling system light comes on. I went to the Chevrolet dealer and he was of little help. The current investigation number is ea09-002. Is there now or will there be in the future a recall notice on this problem since it is a common problem and even a service bulletin on the matter.”

NHTSA complaint #10641769, filed 2014-10, 34,000 miles

“Engine light goes on and goes into deferred engine power. Have replaced throttle body twice. Car run great and then the engine light will go on and when I start the car it starts to violently vibrate. I turn off. Sit for about 10 minutes and then try to start again. Sometimes it works and sometimes not. Deferred engine power is dangerous. Sensors have been reset. This is an ongoing problem been to the dealer and they are price gouging. Problem has been going on for several months.”

NHTSA complaint #11010954, filed 2017-07, 80,000 miles

“Car goes into deferred engine power. Replaced throttle body 3 times. The car starts to vibrate and then shuts down. This is dangerous for the driver and could get killed. We have checked engine leaks, sensors, etc. The car will drive okey for a little while and then engine light goes on and then starts to vibrate and shuts down and stops. I have to wait a little while, sometimes it will start up and sometimes will not. I cannot drive long distances or at night for fear the car will just stop. This is dangerous. I do not know what to do. …”
