The vehicle will stall whenever stopped at a red light or stop sign and in drive. Have to put it in neutral to keep rpm at normal level, otherwise it will go down to 500 rpm or shut off. Vehicle rattles and shakes when driving. Cleaned the throttle body, replaced O2 sensor, had the engine rebuilt 6 months ago because of a recall. This is highly unsafe, unreliable and absolutely not ok for a car with 87,000 miles. There needs to be a recall because it is obvious from reading through different forums on the internet that a lot of other people have the same exact issue at different mileages.
Vehicle rpm surges when stopped at a red light. Vehicle stalled today and shut off but was able to restart immediately. Vehicle has unexplained oil usage.
Low pressure warning, car stalls out while moving, left stranded. Car was taken to dealer and said pvc plug was clogged causing engine rear seal failure. This is a recall on this model but my VIN was not covered, enough though the model year was. I think this recall needs to be expanded.
When at stops car would stall. Now being told camshaft position actuator issue. I noticed many others have the same issue.
When going in reverse, or coming off a red light or stop sign, the vehicle will suddenly stall out. While it starts up right away, this is a safety issue, especially if you have to get out of the way. My vehicle has done this about 4-6 times over the past year. Chevy says there is nothing wrong, and there are no warning lights on the vehicle. All the electrical components work, however the vehicle just turns off.
