| I have recently experienced numerous problems associated with my 1993 chevrolet lumina apv van. shortly after buying the van new in fall 1992 i found that the gas gauge would not accurately reflect the fuel when near the bottom 1/4. i reported it to the dealer twice with no changes made. in january of 1999, the rear trunk lid lock fell of and after having it replaced, i had to return it as the mech was loose at which time i was told they needed to replace the power locking system as that was the problem. on april 3, 1999, while driving on the interstate with the factory installed cruise control set, i noticed the speed started to increase. i applied the brakes to disengage the cruise control and it would not disengage. i had to use the brakes to control the speed as i could not turn off the cruise control. when i shut the vehicle off and restarted it the engine began to race so i turned it off and had the vehicle towed in. the dealer said the cruise had gone bad so i had them disconnect rather than pay $600. to replace it. in the last week i have had two of the seatbelt retractors stop working (frt passenger and 2nd row left). when i told the dealer, they said they could replace them for $400. i felt compelled to report the problems specifically the cruise and seatbelts as they are safety issues and the cruise is potentially a hazard. the seatbelts make the car legally unable to transport passengers unless i pay $400. to have them fixed. and there are 5 more retractors that i suspect may follow the first two. thanks for your interest. *ak | |||
