What owners wrote
Driver lost control. Owner has received recall notice from chev-mfg., about steering front bushing sleeve sub assembly separating from control arm. Describe.
Since the end of august 2002, my car has been falling apart. It all started when my air conditioner stopped working. I had freon put back into it, but after a few days, the freon was gone. The mechanic put a dye into the system to see if there was a leak, but he couldn't see any problem. My car has always overheated in traffic. Oil is leaking from my head gaskets. Now, it is having trouble starting periodically. I was in camden when it wouldn't start. Now I'm afraid to drive it.
