ENGINE IS MALFUNCTIONING AND USING EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL (1 QUART EVERY 1-2 WEEKS). THE MANUFACTURER BUILT BAD MOTORS IN 2007 AND KNOWINGLY COVERED IT UP. THE VEHICLES WERE STILL SOLD TO CONSUMERS AND RATHER THAN FIXING THE ISSUE (ENGINE WOULD HAVE TO BE REBUILT OR REPLACED) THE MANUFACTURER IS PLACING ALL RESPONSIBILITY AND COST ($9,000 FIX) ON THE CONSUMER, EVEN WHEN REPORTED BEFORE 100,000 MILES. THE MANUFACTURER KNOWINGLY SOLD LEMON VEHICLES AND REFUSES TO FIX.

WE HAVE A 2007 SUBURBAN WITH THE 5.3L ENGINE. AFTER, MUCH RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET, MY WIFE AND I HAVE FOUND THAT THERE EVIDENTLY IS A DESIGN FLAW WITH THE AFM LIFTERS. OUR VEHICLE DOES HAVE MILES, BUT SINCE THIS EVIDENTLY IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, WE DID THINK CHEVROLET WOULD AT LEAST OFFER SOME ASSISTANCE WITH THE REPAIR. A LIFTER COLLAPSED AND THE COST TO REPLACE THE LIFTERS IS $3,500.00, PLUS TAX AT TOM GILL CHEVROLET IN FLORENCE, KY. I DON'T BLAME THE DEALER FOR THIS, BUT CHEVROLET HAS REALLY DROPPED THE BALL ON THIS ISSUE FOR MANY, MANY VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ISSUE. SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE TO BETTER PROTECT THE CONSUMER.

DASH COVER. FIRST OFF THE DASH IS CRACKING LIKE SO MANY OTHERS. THE PIECES ARE GETTING SHARP AS IT IS THICK PLASTIC. I CUT MY HAND ON IT JUST DUSTING IT. THE PARTS THAT ARE CRACKED ARE RIGHT ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CRACKS HAVE GROWN THE WIDTH OF THE COVER. THESE CRACKS OCCUR FREQUENTLY IN MOTION OR NOT IN MOTION. I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS THE HEAT AND BUMPS BUT IT SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM. MY CONCERN IS IF THE AIRBAGS GO OFF THOSE PIECES OF THE DASH COULD FLY AND BREAK OFF LIKE NOTHING AND HURT SOMEONE EVEN WORSE IN THAT TYPE OF SITUATION. THE PHOTO PROVIDED IS JUST TWO OF THE FOUR LOCATED ON THE DASH.

OUR CAR HAS 86,500K MILES AND IS GARAGED. WE HAVE TWO CRACKS IN THE DASH BOARD. ONE IS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BY AIR BAG AND THE OTHER IS ON THE DRIVER SIDE OVER INSTRUMENT PANEL. MY CONCERN IS IF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG DEPLOYS IN AN ACCIDENT IT WILL BE COMPROMISED BY THE CRACK IN THE DASH BOARD LEAVING THE PASSENGER UNPROTECTED FROM THE AIRBAG. THE LATEST CRACK OCCURRED JUST THIS PAST WEEK. MY CAR WAS AT A STOP LIGHT AND I HEARD THE CRACK OCCUR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. UPON LOOKING AT THE DASHBOARD I NOTICED THE DRIVER SIDE CRACK. THIS CAN'T BE NORMAL AND IF IT IS THERE IS A SERIOUS FLAW IN THE DESIGN. PLEASE ADVISE.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY I STARTED HEARING TICKING NOISE FROM ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND THE STABLIZING LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. I SHUT OFF THE SUBURBAN AND WENT TO LOOK UNDER THE HOOD. STARTED IT BACK UP AND WENT BACK TO LISTEN AGAIN, STILL THE SAME TICKING. CHEVY WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THERE BAD AFM WHICH IS CAUSING THIS ISSUE.

MY VEHICLE WAS HAVING TROUBLE STARTING AND IDLING ROUGH. I BROUGHT IT IN FOR REPAIRS AND WAS TOLD IT NEEDED A NEW FUEL PUMP AND AIR FILTER. I HAD THOSE CHANGED IN TOTAL SPENDING $1700. THREE DAYS LATER, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING IN MY CAR. I COULD FEEL THE ENGINE MISFIRING AND WAS LOSING POWER. THE OIL PRESSURE WAS FLUCTUATING RAPIDLY. I DROVE IT BACK TO MY HOME AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THAT THE CYLINDER 4 WAS MISFIRING CAUSED BY THE CYLINDER DEACTIVATION FAILURE WHICH IS CAUSED BY THE AUTOMATIC FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. THIS IS CAUSING THE LIFTER TO FAIL.

DASHBROAD CRACKED PIECES IS SHARPE AND DANGEROUS

THE FIRST ISSUE WAS THE DASHBOARD CRAKING IN NUMEROUS SPOTS AND CHEVY DID FINALY REPLACE THE ENTIRE DASH. THE NEXT ISSUE WAS THE PAINT ON THE "WHITE EXTERIOR" BEGAIN CHIPPING OFF IN LARGE 4-7 INCH PARTS ALL OVER THE SUV. THE DEALER FORCED ME TO PAY HALF OR THE PARTIAL REPAINT .1000. :( TAKATA RECALL IS THE LATEST. I WONDER HOW AMERICA CAN BE GREAT AGAIN WITH THIS LEVEL OF QUALITY. SO SAD.

DASH BOARD CRACKED SEVERELY, PASSENGER AIRBAG IS PROBABLY AFFECTED. IF AIRBAG WENT OFF PRICES OF DASH OR SOMETHING MIGHT BE FLOWN WITH IT.

TAKATA INFLATORS ... STILL NO REPAIR INFO. ALSO, AS NOTED IN MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS, MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG/DASH COVER HAS A HUGE CRACK ALL THE WAY ACROSS. NEEDS TO BE FIXED. ALSO - WE HAVE ELECTRICAL ISSUE AFTER ELECTRICAL ISSUE. WHEN WILL THEY ADDRESS THESE ISSUES?

TAKATA RECALL: IT'S BEEN OVER 9 MONTHS SINCE I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE REGARDING MY SUBURBAN. I HAVE MADE SEVERAL CALLS AND STILL NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. I HAVE ALSO HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE EMISSION SENSOR CAUSED BY GAS TANK CAP. THIS APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM FOR ALL SUBURBANS. I ALSO EXPERIENCED A LOSS IN POWER WITH THIS VEHICLE WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. THE STABILITRQCK LIGHT CAME ON AND I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY EXIT THE HIGHWAY. COULD HAVE BEEN A SEVERE ACCIDENT IF INWAS NOT NEAR AN EXIT.

TAKATA INFLATORS. I HAVE A RECALL NOTICE. I HAVE REPEATEDLY CONTACTED THE LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER PARK CHEVROLET KERNERSVILLE NC 336-310-0876 AS TO THE STATUS. THEY WILL NOT GIVE ME A ANSWER AS TO WHEN REPAIR PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. GOING ON 2 YEARS SINCE THE RECALL.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. 1 MONTH OF DRIVING IS EQUAL TO 2-3 QUARTS OF OIL REPLACEMENT.

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE LAST WEEK, MONTHS AFTER IT'S ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THERE IS NO REMEDY AS YET. I FEEL THAT IF THIS IS NOT CORRECTED SOON, THEN A BUYBACK IS IN ORDER. HOW CAN WE DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT IS DANGEROUS?
