start date: 2009-01-21
description: WELL SERVICED 90K MILES. TRAVELING AT 35MPH PUSHED BREAKS ALL THE WAY DOWN (FRACTURING RIGHT ANKLE) SLOWED ME DOWN BUT FAILED TO STOP AT UPCOMING RED LIGHT. STRUCK MEDIUM SIZE VEHICLE INJURING OTHER DRIVER AND CAUSING CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE TO BOTH VEHICLES. CHEVY DEALER COLLISION/SERVICE CENTER ESTIMATED $8K IN REPAIRS. IN OTHER WORDS IT COSTS MORE TO REPAIR IT THAN WHAT THE VEHICLE IS WORTH. ALSO:"MASTER CYLINDER IS BAD" AND AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. CHEVY TECH. SAID "IMPACT WAS NOT BIG ENOUGH" . AFTER READING SOME EIGHT OTHER COMPLAINTS VERY SIMILAR TO THIS . I AM CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING THIS OR GETTING INTO ANOTHER ONE. IS THERE NOT A BREAK LIGHT SERVICE SENSOR THAT I SHOULD HAVE NOTED.? SERVICE MANUAL FOR SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE SAYS TO CHECK FRONT AND REAR AXLE FLUID AND ADD FLUID AS NEEDED EVERY 5K TO 7K MILES AFTER 67.5K MILES. *TR
