Electrical System problem #1

The contact owns a 2008 Chevrolet Express 3500. While driving 35 mph, the vehicle hesitated and stalled without warning. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 128,000.

Electrical System problem #2

Door hinges came welded on doors with no way to lubricate them and keep them from rusting. Purchased the van a few years ago. Within a few months the left hand passenger door rusted shut. Repair man quoted $129 for each hinge plus the labor. Soon the other door would not latch correctly. Now the automatic door locks have problems because doors will not latch properly. This month, the back right hand cargo door hinge has rusted completely off the door, making this a potential hazard, not to mention, the door cannot be shut once it is opened. Once again the automatic door locking system have been compromised. Called chevy soon after first had the problem to see if they would recall, because new hinges are now made to be bolted on van and can be lubricated. We have other friends with chevy vans who have the same problems.
