Van will not start for about 15 min. After being driven for a short distance and shut off.
Dt: the check engine light comes on and off. The ABS system activates while driving on the highway. Also, the ABS light comes on. It does this off and on by itself. This started on august 1, 2005. There is a recall, chevrolet is still recalling, but not sure at this time if consumer's vehicle is included.
Dt: contact stated while driving, the vehicle stalled. When this happened there were no brakes. There were no warnings before the stalling, it happened after the vehicle was parked for approximately 10-15 minutes. This did not happen every time the engine was turned off. The service dealer could not duplicate the problem, but they did inform the contact that this specific model year had intermittent stalling problem. The vehicle did not have braking capability. There was file number 1-34-55-39614 with the local chevrolet dealer. *ak updated 02/07/06.
While driving at highway speeds vehicle stalled. As a result, power steering and brakes failed. Dealer could not duplicate the problem.
While driving at low speeds hydraulic antilock braking system does not operate properly which causes extended stopping distance. Also, vehicle won't start at various times.
Vehicle stalls when traveling! Almost crashed with children in vehicle because of complete operational failure! Vehicle restarts, however may stall at any time! I took vehicle to attendant shop as well as a chevy shop and they both failed to find the cause. This is extremely dangerous and the problem must be dealt with accordingly.
The oil quick connect popped off causing the engine to lose massive amount of oil. Ph
While driving, vehicle will stall without warning, which causes vehicle to lose all power, consumer was unable to stop vehicle.*ak the dealer replaced a cracked door panel, the driver and passenger side arm rest goes down to far, dealer replaced both worn arm rests.
