 I own a chevrolet, uplander that has been giving me a problem with the rear end. it did not start until i had 17,000 miles on it. the car vibrated in the rear axle. i tried to get it fixed at the dealer. they kept saying it was different things, but i still have the problem. have had it to the dealer 15 times, and the problem was getting worse. i am afraid to drive it, afraid that it will lock , and i will have an accident. the vibration was getting real bad when turning a corner. *ak
