After driving vehicle for approximately 10 - 30 minutes or more the vehicle emits a toxic type of odor/vapor that polluting inside of the cabin. The air quality in the vehicle needs to be checked while driving. If the weather is cold, there is a delay. It is unclear if there is a specific engine component that is creating the sickening vapor or if the toxicity is from the chemicals used to prevent corrosion/mold on the engine, inside the evaporator case, evaporator, heater core, blowers, & the air duct system. Or the chemicals used to treat the interior upholstery. None the less, the combination of the chemicals is sickening while traveling inside the vehicle with or without the ac or heat on. Initially it was believed this was an isolated situation. In the process of attempted diagnosis; several Chevrolet vehicles have been rented and the exact same problem exist.

The car was in park & I was sitting in it on the top of my driveway. I was about to open the door when it started to roll backwards while still in park. It started to pick up speed & did not stop until it hit a tree. I was so shocked by what was happening & the fact that I live on the river even though nearly 900 feet away all I could think of was it was going to roll straight in the river. I jumped out of the car & severely injured myself with a concussion, cracked ribs & a broken nose. The car was in park & started to roll while still in park. When it finally came to stop by hitting a tree it was still in park. My mechanic believes it is a problem with the transmission. General Motors sent someone out twice & at this point we are in limbo. The car is not driveable - if we have it repaired my insurance does not feel it is a safe car to drive with out knowing the reason it rolled back. GM has not been helpful or very forthcoming. I have many pictures but was having a problem uploading them. If you need to see them I can mail them if I still can not upload them.

Traveling with cruise control set to 40 mph on a 2 lane road the collision alert went off, beeping and the brakes were applied hard enough to feel the stutter of the anti lock system. This was the second time, the first time no cruise was being used. I had to apply the brake pedal to gain control again. Car is currently at Chevy dealer being checked. There was no threat or cars in front of me. I am now scared to drive with the safety features turned on.

The instrument panel cluster lens allows for an excessive glare that not only prevents the driver from being able to adequately read the settings of the analog gauges, but is also a nuisance and a distraction allowing the glare from the lens/covers to blind the driver's vision, in addition to the glare that comes from the gear shift lever.
