MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM, AND I THINK THAT THE RECALL SHOULD BE EXTENDED TO OTHER YEARS THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORTS IN KEEPING US ALL SAFE!

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
