I PURCHASED A 2001 CHEVROLET TRACKER LT USED WITH 109K MILES. THE VEHICLE WAS SOLD TO ME BY A DEALERSHIP WITHOUT SAFETY INSPECTION STICKERS. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC TO HAVE IT INSPECTED AND WAS TOLD THE FRAME WAS ROTTED, INCLUDING THE FRONT FRAME, SUSPENSION AND SIDE ROCKER PANELS. THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT DISCLOSE THE DAMAGE TO ME AND REFUSES TO REFUND THE COST OF THE VEHICLE OR MAKE THE REPAIRS. I AM CURRENTLY TRYING TO HAVE THE ISSUE MEDIATED BY THE PA STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE. I AM ALSO AWARE THAT CHEVROLET HAS A SAFETY NOTICE ON THE FRONT SUSPENSION OF 2001-2003 CHEVY TRACKERS INDICATING THAT THE FRONT SUSPENSION MAY RUST AND SEPARATE FROM THE VEHICLE. THE INSPECTION PERIOD ON MY VEHICLE IS EXPIRED AND THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE.

WE HAVE A 2001 CHEVY TRACKER WITH THE RUSTED CROSSMEMBER/SUBFRAME THAT CHEVROLET WON'T REPAIR. I THINK THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE. I CALLED CHEVY REPS. AND ALL I GOT WAS " WERE SORRY" BUT THE CAR IS 1200 MILES OVER THE LIMIT FOR REPAIRS. WE TOOK OURS TO OUR LOCAL MECHANIC FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND THEY FOUND THE RUSTED CROSSMEMBER AND ADVISED US TO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE, IT WAS NOT SAFE. SO NOW WE WITHOUT A VERY NEEDED CAR. *TR
