Takata inflators-had to rent a vehicle since not safe for passenger. Gm is paying for the car, but I had to buy collision insurance since all I have is liability. Cost is $14 per day and I feel gm should cover this cost too. Still no parts for replacement and I cannot afford ins. Cost. Isn't gm responsible for all asociated costs. This has been on-going since may, 2015, yet I only got the rental on nov. 25th. The dealer, jerry smith Chevy, has been very accomodating, but they say that gm will not cover insurance. Can you help?

I was driving the car and was stopped in heavy traffic. The car started shaking very badly and trying to move forward, although the brakes were pressed all the way down. This has happened again occasionally, and have noticed a pattern of when I am stopped for about 10-25 minutes the car starts violently shaking and feels like the brakes are about to give way, although they are being fully pressed. Again, this is not just a vibration, this is the entire front of the car (engine and all) almost bucking out of position. When this happened the first time, it almost hit the car in front of me even though my foot was pressed all the way down on the brake. Another issue, which can become a safety issue is the car is leaking from the rain outside into the vehicle by the frame (drips). If you do n

Ntsb campaign 10v387000 we bought the car used. Within a week ck engine light came on. Scan returned code p0741. Possible cause defective ECM which controls torque cov solenoid. Took to gm dealer.

Especially if causing same problem and code as the recall was required for? *tr

My wife was the driver. She had stopped to back up and swing into her normal parking spot. She had been parking in this spot for almost 5 years. The car suddenly accelerated from the stop and though she applied the brakes and parking brake, the car accelerated 40' through our bushes and knocked down the neighbors chain link fence before stopping. It stopped moving because the FWD wheels were off the ground as the knocked over bushes raised the car body up. I was taking a shower and heard the engine rev uncontrollably and gravel spraying everywhere. It was loud. We are afraid to drive the car and cannot in good conscience trade it in or sell it. No one was hurt this time, but if it does it again someone or more could be seriously injured or killed. She did not step on the gas. She was stop

It has just came to my attention that the rear seatbelts are positioned too high and too far forward to protect children sitting in a backless booster and for smaller adults. The seatbelts would not provide adequate safety in a crash because they do not even lay against these persons' bodies. They are around their ears instead of the shoulder.
