SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING SYSTEM ON DISPLAY. WHILE DRIVING THE DAY BEFORE, THE CAR MADE A VERY QUICK MOTION TO THE LEFT WHILE DRIVING AT 65MPH. INVESTIGATION FOUND THE STEERING WHEEL SENSOR PUSHED OUT OF IT'S HOUSING AND DANGLING ON THE STEERING COLUMN SHAFT UNDER THE DASH. THE POWERED TELESCOPING STEERING WHEEL PUSHED THE ASSEMBLY OUT OF PLACE CAUSING THE FAULT. I DISCONNECTED THE STEERING WHEEL SENSOR TO PREVENT ANY FURTHER ACTIVATION OF THE ACTIVE HANDLING.

Air Bags

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH COMES ON FOR THE DRIVER SIDE FOR NO REASON WHILE DRIVING THE CAR. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON, THE AIR BAG IS NON-FUNCTIONAL. SOMETIMES, IF I ADJUST THE SEAT FORWARD, BACKWARD, UP, AND DOWN, THE LIGHT WILL GO OFF, BUT NO ALWAYS. I'VE HAD THE CAR INTO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR. THE REPAIR COST $120 AND THE PROBLEM IS NOT RESOLVED.

SEVER GAS SMELL OCCURS SPORADICALLY. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, I CAN'T DRIVE WITH THE TOP UP OR PLACE VEHICLE IN MY GARAGE. IT WENT TO CHEVY THE FIRST OCCURRENCE AND THEY DID NOT INSPECT, BUT DID SAY THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. IT HAS SINCE HAD ANOTHER 4 OCCURRENCES OF GAS SMELL. IT IS NOT OVERFLOW BECAUSE THE TAK WAS LESS THAN 1/2 FULL 3 OF 4 TIMES THIS HAPPENED.

I WAS IN MY GARAGE, I OPENED THE DRIVER DOOR SAT DOWN AND SECURED THE SEAT BELT. I ATTEMPTED TO START THE CAR BY STEPPING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND PRESSING THE START BUTTON BUT THE ENGINE DID NOT TURN OVER. I MADE A SECOND AND THIRD ATTEMPT TO START THE ENGINE TO NO AVAIL. THEN, I ATTEMPTED TO EXIT THE CAR BUT THE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN. HAVING NOT OPENED THE WINDOWS, I WAS LOST AS HOW TO GET OUT OF MY CAR. I MADE ONE MORE ATTEMPT TO START THE ENGINE BUT COULD NOT. IN FACT MY INSTRUMENTS WERE DEAD. AS I WAS WITHOUT MY CELL PHONE, I SAT PERPLEXED AT MY PREDICAMENT FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. I OPERATED THE DRIVE WINDOW DOWN BUTTON BUT NOTHING HAPPEN. AFTER A FEW MINUTES I TRIED THE DRIVER DOOR WINDOW AGAIN AND THE WINDOW OPENED ABOUT INCH. I REPEATED THE PROCESS FOR 10 OR SO MINUTES UNTIL THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WAS COMPLETELY DOWN. AT THIS JUNCTURE, I WAS ABLE TO CLIMB OUT OF THE DRIVER'S WINDOW TO SAFETY. I THEN REACHED INTO THE CAR AND WAS ABLE TO RELEASE THE CAR'S HOOD. I DID NO...
