2008 Chevrolet Uplander Owner Complaints

The front passenger seat belt is frayed. When I went to the GM dealer to have it replaced I was advised that was not possible that the belt is no longer available. The seat belts are required by law (a safety item) so I doubt that they are allowed to discontinue. When I looked online I found GM parts on several websites and also this belt available for purchase. So why is a Dealer informing people that they cannot be replaced? This vehicle only has 81,000 miles on it.

The contact owns a 2008 Chevrolet Uplander. The contact stated while driving approximately 50 mph, the rear end and front passenger’s side of the vehicle would vibrate with an abnormal, clunking sound coming from the vehicle. The ABS warning light would illuminate on the instrument panel when the failure occurred. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic who informed him that the rear suspension trailing arm was defective and needed to be replaced. Upon investigation, the contact discovered NHTSA campaign number: 10V110000 (Suspension) which he linked to the failure however, the Vin was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and confirmed that the vehicle was not under recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 209,000.

DUE TO A MINOR ACCIDENT WITH A DEER, WE NEED TO REPLACE THE AIRBAGS IN THIS ONLY 12-YEAR OLD VEHICLE, WITH ONLY 135,XXX MILES ON IT. A CHEVY DEALER REPORTS THAT THESE AIRBAGS ARE 'DISCONTINUED AND NO LONGER AVAILABLE'. THIS CAR SHOULD EASILY BE USABLE FOR ANOTHER 135,XXX+ MILES. OVER HALF OF THE USEFUL LIFE OF THIS VEHICLE WILL BE LOST IF WE CANNOT REPLACE THE AIRBAGS. VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING APPROX 60 MPH ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, (SLOWING DOWN BECAUSE OF THE DEER APPROACHING). UNSAFE CONDITION IS ONLY THE UNAVAILABILITY OF NEW, REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS. REST OF MINOR BODY DAMAGE IS EASILY REPAIRABLE. THIS 'EXTENDED BODY 7-PASSENGER' VEHICLE IS BUILT ON A FULL 'TRUCK' FRAME, WHICH WAS NOT DAMAGED. ONLY LOSS BESIDES THE AIRBAGS IS ONE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY AND MINIMAL SHEET METAL DAMAGE. *TR

ON 05/31/2016 CALLED CHEVROLET TO ASK WHY STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT WENT ON WHEN GOING OVER A BUMP IN ROAD. 06-02-2016 CALLED LOCAL DEALERSHIP ABOUT STABILITY LIGHT PROBLEM, WAS TOLD THAT IS WAS A LOOSE CONNECTION MOST LIKELY. AFTER LOOKING ONLINE, WE IGNORED THE LIGHT. ON AUGUST 28, 2017 WE BROUGHT THE UPLANDER INTO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP FOR AN ESTIMATE ON THE FUEL SERVICE. THAT EVENING WHEN WE WENT TO PICK THE VAN UP, THE SERVICE TECH SAID THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS "GONE". HE GAVE AN ESTIMATE ON A NEW TRANSMISSION. WE HAD BEEN DRIVING THE VAN WITHOUT PROBLEMS BUT FOR LOSING POWER GOING UP HILLS, THAT'S WHY WE WANTED THE FUEL SERVICE, PREVIOUSLY THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. WE HAVE SERVICED THIS VEHICLE ALL THE TIME FROM WHEN WE PURCHASED IN DECEMBER OF 2008. WHEN WE PICKED THE VAN UP WE DIDN'T MAKE IT MORE THAN 4 BLOCKS WHEN IT STOPPED MOVING. NOW THE TRANSMISSION MECHANIC SAYS THE TRANSMISSION HAS OVERHEATED AND NEEDS A COMPLETE REBUILD FOR $2,600.00. ONLINE THE CHEVY FORUM SAYS THAT THE MODULE GOES AND THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS DESTROYING THE TRANSMISSION, BUT ALSO STATES A LIGHT COMES ON. THIS LIGHT HAS NOT COME ON IF ITS NOT THE STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT.

HAVING AN ISSUE INTERMITTENTLY WHERE THE "SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM" MESSAGE FLASHES ON THE MESSAGE PANEL AT RANDOM TIMES WHEN DRIVING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS OUR BRAKES LOCK UP AT THE SAME TIME. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY SCARY SITUATION WHEN DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE OR IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. WE HAVE TAKEN THIS VEHICLE IN TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THIS CHECKED AND THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE, THEREFORE WE WERE ADVISED NOTHING WAS WRONG. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND I THINK THIS WARRANTS A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE THE BRAKES LOCKING UP AT INOPPORTUNE AND UNEXPECTED TIMES WILL SURELY COST LIVES AT SOME POINT. IT HAPPENED TO US ON AN INCOMING RAMP FOR AN INTERSTATE AND WE HAD CARS SLAMMING ON BRAKES AND TRYING TO GET PAST US. IT'S A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE.

THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME THE STABILITY CONTROL HAS MADE DRIVING ACTUALLY DANGEROUS. THE FIRST TIME IT LOCKED UP AND WE SKID TO A HALT THANKFULLY GOING 25 MILES AN HOUR. AND IT WAS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY AT THAT TIME. THIS TIME, WE JUST HAD THE FULL HUB ASSEMBLY REPLACED AND WHILE DRIVING AT A HIGHER SPEED THE STABILITY CONTROL LOCKED UP AGAIN, NOT QUITE AS HARD BUT HARD ENOUGH, AND IT PULLED SHARPLY TO ONE SIDE. BOTH TIMES, THANKFULLY YEARS APART, WE WERE GOING STRAIGHT AND DIDN'T HIT ANYONE BECAUSE OF IT AS NO ONE WAS AROUND. THIS THING IS GOING TO KILL SOMEONE. AND WHY WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT IT HAS IT NOT BEEN RECALLED. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AND I'M NOT READY TO BUY ANOTHER CAR. BY THE WAY, I DON'T KNOW WHY IT WAS EVEN INSTALLED. IT DOESN'T ACTUALLY WORK. WE USED TO LIVE IN NORTHERN UTAH AND WE LIVED AT THE LAST STREET UP THE MOUNTAIN. WHEN THE ROAD WAS VERY ICY WE'D HAVE TO TURN THE STABILITY CONTROL OFF IN ORDER TO GET HOME. IT ACTUALLY MADE DRIVING IN THE SNOW/ICE HARDER AND MORE DANGEROUS. WE HAVE YET TO TAKE THE UPLANDER IN TO BE FIXED YET AGAIN AS WE HAVE HAD TOO MANY REPAIRS ON VEHICLES LATELY AND JUST DON'T WANT TO SPEND MORE. SO, NO DIAGNOSIS HAS BEEN MADE AS OF TODAY.

WHILE DRIVING NORTH ON DAGSBORO ROAD I CROSSED THE RAILROAD TRACKS AND THE REAR AXLE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BROKE CATAPULTING THE VEHICLE INTO A TELEPHONE POLE ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO TURN OVER TWO TIMES. I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS TURNING END OVER END OR SIDEWISE. THE TELEPHONE POLE BROKE OFF AT THE BOTTOM AND ALSO AT THE TOP LEAVING THE TOP HANGING ON THE WIRES. I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT THE LEFT REAR TIRE HAD COME OFF UNTIL THE CAR WAS BEING MOVED TO THE SALVAGE YARD. THE STATE OF DELAWARE UNIFORM COLLISION REPORT INDICATES THAT THE CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT WAS INATTENTIVE DRIVING. I TOLD CPL ALBERT AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT THAT I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED BUT I DID REMEMBER BEING SLEEPY AND MENTIONING THAT I WAS PLANNING TO STOP AT THE SMYRNA REST AREA TO TAKE A NAP. THE REST AREA WAS AT LEAST AN HOURS DRIVE AHEAD OF US SO I DIDN'T THINK I WAS IN ANY IMMEDIATE DANGER OF FALLING ASLEEP. I HAVE COMMUNICATED WITH CPL ALBERT SEVERAL TIMES SINCE THE ACCIDENT IN AN EFFORT TO HAVE THE REASON FOR THE ACCIDENT CHANGED FROM INATTENTIVE DRIVING TO MECHANICAL FAILURE. WHEN I SHOWED THE PICTURE OF THE BROKEN AXEL TO MY MECHANIC HE SUGGESTED THAT THE CAR WAS CATAPULTED ON TO THE TELEPHONE POLE. I AM SCHEDULED TO GO TO THE 'JUSTICE OF THE PEACE COURT OF THE STATE OF DELEWARE IN AND FOR SUSSEX COUNTY COURT NO. 3 ,23730 SHORTLY RD. GEORGETOWN DE 19947 (302)856-145 ' AT 9:00 AM ON TUESDAY DECEMBER 22, 2015 TO PLEAD MY CASE. I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO REPORT THE PROBLEM EVEN IF I SHOULD LOSE THE CASE.
