SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP, AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR, VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
FUSE #9 ON THE VEHICLE KEEPS REPETEDLY BLOWING OUT RENDERING THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES, THE AIRBAG, THE POWER LOCKS,THE POWER LIGHTS, THE REAR DEFOGGER, THE A/C BLOWER,ANDTHE INSTRUMENT PANEL INOPERABLE. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN 5 SEPARATE TIMES FOR REPAIRS FOR THE AFORMENTIONED PROBLEM. DUE TO THE FACT THAT ALL SAFETY FEATURES ON THE VEHICLE BECOME DISABLED, I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THIS VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN UNABLE TO FIND THE PROBLEM, AND HAS ALSO SUBLET THE VEHICLE TO 3 OTHER CHEVROLET DEALERSHIPS THAT HAVE ALSO BEEN UNABLE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. I AM A PREGNANT MOM WITH 3 CHILDREN....SAFETY IS DEFINITELY AN ISSUE!!!!!!!
