CHEVROLET BERETTA 1998 car safety problem was reported on Aug 01, 2002.CHEVROLET BERETTA 1998, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM . WHILE CHATTING WITH THE MECHANIC AT THE DEALER I RECENTLY HEARD THAT GENERAL MOTORS HAS HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE NEW STYLE ORANGE ANTIFREEZE CORRODING HEAD GASKETS ON SOME OF THEIR V-6 ENGINES. WORD HAS IT THEY KNEW THERE WAS A PROBLEM BUT HAVE KEPT QUIET ABOUT IT. I ALSO HEARD FROM ANOTHER MECHANICTHAT THEY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH PREMATURE FAILURE OF THE VALVE SEATS. THEY BOTH WORKED AT THE CHEVROLET DEALER. WHICH EVER THE CASE, I HAD A CHEVROLET BARRETTA WITH A V-6 ENGINE. WITHOUT WARNING WATER STARTED COMING OUT OF THE EXHAUST PIPE. THERE WERE NO BROKEN HOSES OR OTHER LEAKS PRESENT. AT THE TIME I THOUGHT THIS WAS STRANGE. I TOOK IT TO THE CHEVROLET DEALER, AND THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD REPLACE THE HEADS, BUT THEY WOULDN'T GAURANTEE THAT WOULD FIX IT. THEY TALKED ME INTO BUYING A NEW CAR. ALL I COULD AFFORD WAS A LOW MILEAGE DEMONSTRATOR.NOW THE NEW CAR IS APPROACHING THE SAME AGE AND IT HAS THE SAME ENGINE. *AK I TRAVEL TO OHIO FOR CHRISTMAS. NOW I'M WORRIED ABOUT THIS CAR. I'M A MILITARY WIDOW AND I CAN'T AFFORD A NEW CAR EVERY TWO OR THREE YEARS. I ALWAYS TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION AND SERVICE. I AM LUCKY I WAS HOME WHEN THIS HAPPENED. IF IT HAD HAPPENED LAST CHRISTMAS ON MY WAY TO OHIO, I WOULD HAVE FROZE TO DEATH. MOST OF THE DATES HERE ARE GUESSES. GENERAL MOTORS SHOULD HAVE ALL THE CORRECT DATES ON FILE. I BOUGHT THE FIRST CAR IN CABOT, ARKANSAS AND I BOUGHT THE SECOND CAR IN BRANSON , MISSOURI. MY FRIEND HAS BEEN A MECHANIC MOST OF HIS LIFE AND HE CAN'T DO IT ANY MORE. HE PRESENTLY OWNS A 1990 CHEV. ASTRO VAN WITH A V-6 ENGINE WITH 250,000 MILES ON IT WITH NO PROBLEM. IT HAS ALWAYS HAD THE OLD STYLE GREEN ANTIFREEZE IN IT. I FEEL THAT IF THERE HAS BEEN A KNOWN PROBLEM THEY SHOULD WARN PEOPLE ABOUT IT. AND IF I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED BEFORE I BOUGHT IT. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 0 miles.

my 91 silverado will shift into gear on start up but after the trans warms up i have no gears at all My 89 Blazer suddenly accelerates, and I have to ride the brakes to keep it from "jumping" foward. This is causing my brakes to really squeal, and the mechanic is telling me that he cannot find the cause. I have actually put the car in drive, and Transmission shifts after i reach 3000-4000rpms and let off the gas 97 blazer Transmission shifts after i reach 3000-4000rpms and let off the gas my power steering pump is leaking. How do I know if I need a new powersteering pump in my 2003 tahoe, will the fuel light work even if the gas gauge is broken? Anyone hear of a recall on the frame of a Chevy trail blazer. 2003 I recently installed an after market cd player in my 2004 Chevy Venture. Since then the passenger side sliding door won't automatically open by using the switch or by pulling the handle. bright lights will not come on. My 97 chevy van 1500 express 5.0 fuel gage just up and stopped working and suggestions? Engine Control system wen't from smooth to erratically stumbling to find it's set idle, I could also hear the twin TBI injector's pumping too much fuel into engine, drove it to the local store, was still running rough, trying to stall, it fi I have a 2009 obalt and have some questions that may help solve some problems that I have.
The car jerks when accelerating at low speed (i.e.stop and go traffic ), I have taken it to the dealer and got told there was nothing reported when they
