06 balt piece o junk....

Well just over 49k replaced clutch. Rotors are super warped like every gm vehicle ever. Now been getting check charging system. Not starting sometimes and goes click, click, crank, start. Other times so low won't do anything but click really fast. Got my recall notice for power steering also....

Second day Ifrom the shop from previos incident rod knock, two weeks later fogged headlights and cat flex pipe broke, 1 week later role pin 1 year later computer and all wiring In engine bay on fire., after I got it back from shop I get rear ended, after I get that fixed I get hit by a animal and it destroyed my front end took the motor tranny and every thing else out in the front. After I got that fixed two role pins And three serp belt tensioner because of gm junkand the a a stupid ass driver hits me and pushes me into the ditch off the road. After that role pin then seep belt broke taking my alternator and alternator cable with it. I fixed that and now I have a knock coming from my idler because my belt is ate up from a bad tensioner. So u r the lucky few

Alright. First check your alternator cable to starter see if that's ok. I think the power train warranty is 60k 5 year I dunno.......... Search it some how..... Did autozone do a voltage check? What was the voltage do u know and did it tell u amps

Oh yeah gm only carries my alternator and it is nearly 600 but I got one from a guy on this forum. Go to a junk yard the 2.4z and 2.2 zz I am pretty sure r the same

Sounds like your cars were built on a Friday afternoon.
