Replaced Thermostat Housing due to coolant leak. GM Part #25193922 (Thermostat) Outlet Housing. Flush & Refill with 50/50 Dex-Cool. Note: OEM Thermostat temperature is 221F. Leak was probably caused by pulling lightweight travel trailer up grade. Temperature briefly reached 240F possibly causing housing failure. Will look into a cooler thermostat. |

The car would not start and then the radio would not turn off when I opened the driver side door. The mechanic changed the battery but i have still experienced the radio not turning off The airbag light has been on and I assumed it was just because it need to be inspected but actually the mechanic said the code says the sensor in the passenger seat belt has malfunctioned and needs to be replaced. The cost was over 250 so I opted to wait on this repair. |

AC compressor failure on <5yr old car. Chevy dealer wanted $1500 to replace. I never had the work done and sold the car instead. I asked the service manager at the Chevy dealer when we got the quote if this was a common failure item for vehicles only a few years old and he said "Actually, yes. You wouldnt believe how many new vehicles need their AC compressors replaced just outside of warranty." Lol. His candor was appreciated. I will never own another Chevy now. |
