“Initially the rear main seal was leaking or broken; all the oil drained from the vehicle. After spending $992.60 I was advised that the timing change and guides needed to be replaced. I've had the vvt celanide replaced as well as the crank and cam shaft sensors; the vvt gears and an oil pump rebuild...$2017.60 later, my truck drove for approximately 3 miles where it died on the side of the road. I have not driven my car (aside from the 3 miles) in nearly 2 months. Now I'm being told they think it may be electrical. My truck has less than 100,000 miles on it. …”

“I purchased a pre certified vehicle on 3/22/19 and started having problems 12 days from purchase date. The problems that have occurred are: loud crank like noise coming from right front passenger side, vibration at high speeds and vehicle pulls to the left during acceleration and braking. Chevy has replaced the right front caliper twice, said my tires were defected so I purchased 4 brand new ones, performed 3 road force balances and 2 alignments on new tires, replaced propeller shaft and replaced high pressure power steering hose. My vehicle is still not fixed after all the repairs.”
