Lemon Law?

Oh yeah, I would definitely make them eat the cost. If you bought this from one of those "22% interest places" that is one thing, but a Chevy dealership is another. It would be real embarrassing for them if the public found out that they were selling second rate cars, so obviously one slipped through the cracks when they sold it to you. So they better make it right.

Good thinking. Definitely worth researching. If they are reputable, they will know what they have coming if they jerk you around and you shouldn't have much trouble.

I don't believe that applies, since it hasn't had multiple issues. Just one big one

All cars sold by dealership here carry a minimum 30day bumper to bumper warranty; I beleive its one part of the lemon law so you don't get screwed driving it off the lot.

The warranty length varies with the mileage, 30 days is the minimum and covers cars over 100,ooo miles. I beleive its 60 days for cars under 100k.

I'm fairly sure that almost all states have adopted simular laws, I would look into it before going to the dealership so you can go in knowledgable.

yep the pressure control solenoid was defective on my 98..but there were plenty of other issues as well lol.

come join the Japanese darkside... there'* no way the SSE could touch the reliability track record of the Honda and Toyota vehicles we've owned.


i still want my 3800 back

I believe that there is a 30-day defect law in Ohio. If you want info, you can call the Better Business Bureau and they'll have answers. I imagine that'* a very common question for them..

yeah, if they don't budge, I'm going directly to the BBB. It seems that they don't have a great record with them, either. This is gonna be fun... BTW, I'll be shooting some pics of the fluid from the dipstick. I don't want to drop the pan just for "evidence'*" sake, lmao

You saw chunks on the dipstick?
