Replying to: mdamron24 (Mar 18, 2009 5:39 am) Just my own opinion but why in the hell would you go buy any GM vehicle at the moment?   People in their plants are waiting for pink slips. You think they do their best work during these days?   I can assure you that some of the problems in GM vehicles are not due to normal manufacturing problems.   The other thing is that you cannot have your vehicle fixed under warranty. This happened to me already with an '04 Tahoe. Dealers are not fixing them because they cannot get payment from GM.   I would not touch a new GM vehicle with a 10 ft long pole at this moment. Only if they for some stupid amazing reason would get back on their feet again or if they would give a vehicle for me to test drive for 6 months before buying it, which they certainly will not do.   Your best bet is to tell your dealer that you will pay for work and parts even it is under warranty but they might not fix it even then as you would then have proof that it was a warranty job and could ask for your money to be returned.   GM deserves to go under.   Arrie Replies to this message: tidester (Mar 18, 2009 8:35 pm) arrie (Mar 20, 2009 6:32 am) mdamron24 (Mar 20, 2009 6:53 am) and 1 more...

Replying to: arrie (Mar 18, 2009 5:21 pm) for some stupid amazing reason would get back on their feet again   Do you think they could possibly get back on their feet again if everybody simply stopped buying? Would they be more likely to get back on their feet if people did buy? Just a thought.   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper Replies to this message: arrie (Mar 20, 2009 6:32 am) mdamron24 (Mar 20, 2009 6:53 am) keystone7 (Apr 05, 2009 8:46 pm)

Replying to: tidester (Mar 18, 2009 8:35 pm) That is why I say "if for some stupid amazing reason".   I really like my Tahoe now after I fixed it myself while it was still under warranty. Problems started after about 1500 miles and dealer newer did nothing to fix it. Always said nothing wrong because no trouble codes. And they had plenty of time to fix it. At one time they had my truck for two weeks but no help.   When my gas mileage was only 13 MPG on highway driving I knew there was something wrong.   I fixed it myself and there were a lot of little things that needed attention.   After spending $40 000 for a vehicle I did not think I need to be doing what I had to do.   This is my last GM vehicle.   And yes, I always try to buy vehicle built in U.S.   Arrie Replies to this message: mdamron24 (Mar 20, 2009 6:53 am) keystone7 (Apr 05, 2009 8:46 pm)

Replying to: arrie (Mar 20, 2009 6:32 am) Thank You Arrie for the comment. Its really bad when you buy a new vehicle thinking its new shouldn't have any problems and then your faced with problems and no one wants to fix it. GM needs to stand behind their vehicles and step up to the plate when people pay so much for their cars they should fix them. I travel alot with my 7 year old daughter and I would like to have a dependable vehicle. Are there any out there? Once you buy the thing your pretty much stuck with it cause the kelly blue book is so much less than what you owe. So I guess either I can fix it myself and eat the cost or trade it and lose my butt. At this point I just don't know what to do its very depressing. They tell me there is nothing they can do until a code shows up in the message center, I told them that in my 2007 when I was sitting by the road waiting on a tow truck there were no codes that came up. I don't know much about vehicles but I would think that if the car wont pull and you have to get a tow truck to haul it in some kind of light should come on, even if it just said "SUCKER"..lol... Does anyone know how the Lemon law works??? If it works like GM then I guess there is no use trying. I really like the size of my suburban but I would give up some room to get a dependable ride.

Hi, I hope I'm posting this in the right area. We just bought a 2009 Suburban and have had continual stalling problems. Has anyone else experienced this or have any idea what is causing it? Thanks Replies to this message: kiawah (Sep 01, 2009 7:47 pm)

Replying to: usmc513 (Sep 01, 2009 6:23 pm) no, but the nice thing is that you can just take it back to the dealership until they replace everything that it might be, all covered under warranty.   Could be many different things, an intermittent sensor, restricted fuel flow, defective software load, and thousands of other things. Dealership will check the errors in the computer which will lead them to the right problem area.
