| When the vehicle was started in the morning, the brakes made a grinding noise when depressed. the vehicle was serviced by the dealership twice and they replaced the brake disc, rotors and shoes. while driving down a hill with the brake pedal depressed, the brake system overheated, and a burning odor filled the cabin of the vehicle. *ak the brakes started to pulsate again while going down a mountain, a noise was heard coming from the driveline between shifts and was unable to be duplicated, the transmission slipped and shifted erratically, the engine would break up on a slight acceleration due to the distributor cap and the rotor being corroded. *sc *jb | |||

| I attempted to make a left hand turn across two lanes of on coming traffic (speed limit 55 mph). i push down on the accelerator, the van moved into the on coming traffic lanes and the engine died. cars had to quickly apply breaks to avoid hitting my van. it took about 20 seconds to get the van started and out of the intersection. the van was towed into courtesy chevrolet and the distributor cap and rotator were replace. i was told everything was corrected. this was not the case as the same problem happened two additional times (october 24, 2004 and december 16, 2004) with the same terrifying consequences with on coming traffic. i was fortunate not to be killed or kill someone else with this vehicle stalling in on coming traffic.*ak | |||
