1991 Chevrolet Lumina Engine cooling Problems

“The radiator failed at seam in the plastic at the top where the upper hose attaches, after failing I consulted other Lumina owners who encountered the same exact leak in the same place, I went to the junk yard to find every Lumina had the same leak, I think this is manufacture flaw. The oil leak that happened when the oil pump driveshaft gave was very bad. I consulted others then and found it is a very common problem that is know by all mechanics know about. It is not if it will give, it's when.”

“While driving vehicle will completely shutdown without warning, cause unknown. Thee vehicle stall at three different occasions and fixed by the dealer. First time they said it could be plugs, they replaced, second they replaced EGR valve but the problem continued and at last injectors was guesed to be the cause and was fixed still no remedy is found for stalling.”

“While driving at 35 to 45 MPH vehicle will shut down, causing a loss of power without warning. Sometimes it will start right back up, and sometimes it takes 15 to 20 minutes. Dealer has been contacted, and replaced ttc solenoid once, but that did not solve the problem. Dealer said that owner will have to wait until vehicle breaks down completely to find the problem.”

“Consumer states attempted to accelerate from a stop light and steering wheel turned completely around in a circle and consumer lost control. Dlr determined that the engine cradel bolts broke. Current recall 00v189000 does not include consumer's vehicle. Ts”

“Consumer stated there was a short in the wiring that was causing the lights not to go off, the dealer also disconnected the radio to try and remedy the short in the wiring, also the battery and the alternator were replaced.”
