What owners wrote
I was struck from the back, while taking foot off the brake, I attempted to proceed from a stop sign in shopping mall. Due to delay, from a bad transmission from day 1 when I first purchased vehicle from felix chevrolet, la ca it holds up traffic. I took my foot off brake after stopping at stop sign and it appeared to driver that I was moving forward. Yet, the delay causes danger from behind and I'm still encountering delays from the date of purchase, 2006 up until now.
Why hasn't there been a recall on ** intake manifold gasket ** for the chevrolet venture 2003 ? I replaced it 2 years ago and now I must replace it again . There are like 35 models with the same problem. GMC knows about the problem. No one does anything about it. I hope you guys do something about it because every repair is around $ 700 to $1100 . It depends where you go. I can't believe you guys can't force GMC to make this a recall.
