 During acceleration, the engine hesitates and begins to choke. when it attempts to shift into the next gear it feels like the car will shut off. i was almost in several accidents on the highway due to this issue. took car to chevy dealership at 845am the next morning and the mechanics could not get any type of answer to me until 2pm. i was told they were on the phone and laptops with tech's somewhere else in the u.s. the guessed decision, was some sort of can/am or cam sensor. they did not know why there were five error codes from this issue. i was told that the mechanics were instructed to start fixing this issue, by replacing the sensor and then run another diagnostics on the vehicle. i have to wait three days for the part to come in and was told this may eventually not be the correct fix to this issue. iknow have to wait. luckily my power train warranty covers this part and labor but i have to pay a one hundred dollar deductible towards the cost per the contract. *tr
