SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGE
HAVE HAD THREE (3) SETS OF SEATBELTS INSTALLED ON BOTH DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDE OF VEHICLE (FRONT). THE LATEST SET OF BLETS, LIKE THE OTHER, CONTINUES NOT, REPEAT NOT TO RETRACT. WE USE THE BLETS ALWAYS, BUT AGAIN, WHEN LOOSENED THEY WILL NOT RETRACT. I AM GOING TO THE FURTH SET OF BELTS THIS WEEK. ARE THE BELTS AT FAULT OR IS THEIR A DESIGN DEFECT WHICH PROHIBITS THE BELTS FROM RETRACTING. I AM ELEVATING THE PROBLEM TO GUNN CHEVROLET'S MANAGER'S THIS TIME AS I AM TIRED OF THE PROBLEM!!!!!!

VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER
WHENEVER WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE IN USE THEY WOULD STOP ON THEIR OWN & THEN WOULD RESTART ON THEIR OWN. AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. WOULD HAVE NO WARNING WHEN IT WOULD HAPPEN. THIS WOULD CAUSE DRIVER TO HAVE POOR VISIBILITY IN HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITIONS. BEEN TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS & CONTACTED MANUFACTURER. VEHICLE NOT UNDER RECALL 97V017000 DUE TO VIN, ALTHOUGH IT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. *AK

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE
AFTER THE CAR FULLY WARMS UP, ABOUT 25 OR 30 MINUTES THERE IS A BURNING SMELL. THE DEALER SAID THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT IS BUT HAS ADMITTED TO SMELLING IT. I BROUGHT IT IN FOR SERVICE ON 10-28-99 AND LEFT IT FOR TWO DAYS. DEALER CHECKED ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND FOUND NOTHING AND ALSO CHECKED TEMPATURE BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT THE HEATER BLOWS EXTREMELY HOT AIR. I HAVE ALSO BROUGHT CAR IN NUMEROUS TIMES FOR FAULTY BRAKES AND EACH TIME DEALER CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THEM! .
