2013 Chevrolet Express Problems

THE TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AND I ONLY HAVE 77,000 MILES. IS THIS NORMAL? THE VAN IS ONLY A 2013 MODEL.

THIS VEHICLE WILL NOT TURN OFF WHEN THE IGNITION KEY IS REMOVED. THIS POSES A GREAT RISK TO ANY PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE AS IT CAN BE MOVED WITHOUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. THE VEHICLE REMAINS FULLY POWERED WITH THE KEY REMOVED.

The Brakes will Lock up while driving Due to an issue with the Power Brake Hydro Boost System. The Hydro Boost Control Valve will allow Pressure to apply the Brake Master Cyl. with Engine speed increasing while the vehicle is traveling in a normal Fashion. Overheating the Brake calipers to the point of Protective boots burning up. Rotors and pads are damaged also. This a known problem Posted on repair search boards. I am a Certified ASE Master Mechanic with over 40 Years This a Very Dangerous Event and Part Failure

BRAKES DO NOT RELEASE AFTER SUDDEN STOP, THREE TIMES, ON HIGHWAY 95. STEERING WHEEL STARTED TREMBLING SLOWLY FOR 10 MILES AND THEN VIOLENTLY, THEN BRAKE PEDAL GETS HARD. PASSENGER SIDE STARTED SMOKING, ON 8 SOUTH IN CT 4/9/2020. MANAGED TO STOP VAN ON SOFT SHOULDER. THIS BRAKE SYSTEM IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR ME.

V=INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES. EACH TIME VEHICLE TAKEN TO DEALER WHO "CORRECTS" THE PROBLEMS. LESS THAN A 1000 MILES LATER, PROBLEM REOCCURS. VEHICLE WILL BE TRAVELLING WHEN CHECK ENGINE & DEF INDICATOR LIGHTS COME ON. MESSAGE ON ODOMETER READS "EXHAUST FLUID QUALITY POOR" ... XX MILES UNTIL SPEED REDUCED TO 65 MPH. AFTER EACH INCIDENT THE DEALER INDICATES IT IS A SENSOR PROBLEM, NOT A FLUID QUALITY PROBLEM. THIS UNIT IS AN EMERGENCY RESPONSE AMBULANCE IN A RURAL AREA THAT MUST TRANSPORT EMERGENCY PATIENTS AT LEAST 30 MILES TO NEAREST HOSPITAL. *JS

AIR BAG FRONT CRASH SENSOR FAILURE. AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON ON START UP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET EXPRESS. WHILE DRIVING 43 MPH, THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. IN ADDITION, THE SHOULDER OF THE SEAT BELT DID NOT LOCK, WHICH CAUSED THE CONTACT'S BODY TO BE JERKED AROUND IN THE SEAT. THE REAR PASSENGER SEAT BELT FRACTURED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE HEAD, THUMB, LOWER TORSO, AND KNEES. THE CONTACT ALSO SUFFERED WHIPLASH. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS REQUIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 48,000.

VEHICLE GOES INTO ENGINE REDUCED SPEED AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL AND SERVICE STABILI TRACK WARNING LIGHTS TURN ON. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM STARTING A WEEK AFTER I PURCHASED MY VAN AND WAS "REPAIRED" ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AND THE PROBLEM KEEPS REOCCURRING. THE INCIDENTS HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN STATIONARY WHILE ENGINE WAS RUNNING. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ACCELERATOR PETAL ASSEMBLY A COUPLE OF TIMES AND ALSO REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY POSITION SENSOR AND THE PROBLEM STILL CONTINUES. THE LAST TIME I TOOK IT IN THE DEALER PUT DIELECTRIC IN THE HARNESS AND SAID I MIGHT HAVE A MOISTURE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM REOCCURRED AGAIN A FEW WEEKS LATER. I DON'T SEE HOW MOISTURE COULD BE THE PROBLEM SINCE IT STARTED A WEEK AFTER PURCHASE AND CONTINUES 4 YEARS LATER.

THE VEHICLE RANDOMLY AND AUTONOMOUSLY APPLIES THE BRAKES AND CUTS ENGINE POWER WHILE DRIVING. AT THIS TIME THE VEHICLE STATES "SERVICE STABILITRAK" AND THE ICON FLASHES THAT I AM SKIDDING, WHICH I AM NOT (I HAVE VIDEO PROOF OF THIS OCCURING). AFTER 4 TRIPS TO THE DEALERSHIP THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME FOR THIS TO OCCUR WHILE MERGING, OR MAKING A LEFT ACROSS TRAFFIC AND CAUSE A SERIOUS AND POTENTIALLY FATAL COLLISION.

DRIVING ALONG INTERSTATE 10 OUR MOTOR HOME BEGAN TO SHAKE LIKE TIRES BEING OUT OF BALANCE. I STOPPED AT EXPRESS TIRE IN FREDERICKSBURG, TX. THEY FOUND THAT THE TREAD WAS SEPARATING ON THREE OF THE SIX TIRES. BECAUSE WE WERE TRAVELING I ONLY REPLACED THE THREE PROBLEM TIRES. CONTINUING OUR TRIP WE TRAVELED ANOTHER 1,000 MILES AND A FOURTH TIRE SEPARATED. AT THAT TIME I WAS ONLY 200 MILES FROM RETURNING HOME SO HAD THE SPARE PUT ON AND CONTINUED HOME WITH NO FURTHER PROBLEMS. I DO INTEND ON PURCHASING FOUR MORE NEW TIRES BEFORE OUR NEXT TRIP.
