This electrical problem could have happened while I was underway and is a safety issue. Chevrolet is aware of the condition and made no effort to correct the problem placing me in a posittion to be injured or killed. Also the financial impact of having to pay more than $1200 for repairs that could have been corrected by General Motors. I am not the only one having this problem.
