general problems of the 1999 Chevrolet Astro

Engine lunges/surges/accelerates to high idle randomly while brake pedal is pressed down. Dealership refuses to acknowledge problem since by virtue of its random nature, it has not occured when they drive it. Assistant service manager said on 5/4/01 that he would be defrauding Chevrolet if he put in a part that in fact did not resolve the problem, even though it is still under factory warranty and the problem has been pursued by owner since last fall.

Engine revvs when brake pedal is pressed down and launches forward. Dealer has replaced rotors/ rotated tires, and had consumer to test drive vehicle to make sure it was being driven with two feet. Dealer couldn't get vehicle to duplicate the problem. Dealer has asked to use only 2 brands of gas. Vehicle was last in, in March. The problem still exsists.

While driving down the street and coming to a stop sign vehicle would not stop, and vehicle went through, and still would not stop. Consumer had to turn t vehicle off, finally it stopped.

While coming to a stop and went to pull into an intersection and vehicle choked out and stalled. Consumer was able to start vehicle, but it stalled out again. Contacted dealer, and dealer has not done anything.
