1992 Chevrolet Lumina Complaints

1992 CHEVROLET LUMINA BRAKES FAILED AND THE VEHICLE HIT A PARKED VEHICLE AND THE MEDIAN BARRIER. *KB (OHIO TRAFFIC CRASH REPORT)*JB

1992 LUMINA SEDAN BRAKE SPEED BLEEDERS WERE CHANGED 3 TIMES. *TS THE CONSUMER ORDERED BRAKE BLEEDERS FROM A DIFFERENT COMPANY THAN WHERE HE ORDERED THEM BEFORE, BUT WHEN HE RECEIVED THEM, HE NOTICED THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY SEALER OR THREAD LOCKER ON THEM TO HELP PREVENT AIR AND/OR BRAKE FLUID FROM LEAKING. *JB

THIS VEHICLE HAS THE SAME ISSUE AS THE BELOW LISTED RECALL: NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER : 97V058000 THE REAR CRADLE BOLTS PULL THROUGH THE RETAINERS DUE TO CORROSION OF THE RETAINER. IF BOTH BOLTS PULL THROUGH, THE REAR CRADLE WOULD NOT LONGER BE SUPPORTED AT THESE MOUNTING LOCATIONS AND THE STEERING INTERMEDIATE SHAFT CAN SEPARATE FROM THE STEERING GEAR. *JB

DT: THE CONSUMER FOUND RECALL 91V214000, AFTER THE PROBLEM OCCURRED WITH HIS VEHICLE. THE REVERSE WORKED ON THE VEHICLE WHEN IT WAS PURCHASED, BUT IS NO LONGER WORKING. THE PROBLEM STARTED IN 1993. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT IT WAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS STATED IN THE RECALL, BUT THEY COULDN'T FIX IT. THE MANUFACTURER DATE WAS TWO MONTHS BEFORE THE RECALL STARTED. THE TRANSMISSION WORKS IN ALL THE OTHER GEARS EXCEPT REVERSE. *JB

CONSUMER HEARD A NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT END WHILE DRIVING. VEHICLE WAS SERVICED BY SEVERAL MECHANICS BEFORE THE CAUSE OF THE NOISE WAS FOUND. THE REAR CRADLE BOLT HAD PULLED THROUGH THE RETAINERS BECAUSE OF CORROSION AS STATED IN RECALL 97V058000, BUT THIS MODEL YEAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.*AK
