Well not much of an update. The dealer still has the car and have not had luck on getting it resolved. Contact GM Canada (not about the dealer) but about the issue. They are looking into it. I was contact a couple times from the service manager and they are willing to do what it takes and GM is covering the cost apparently. The only thing I am covering is the gas there using lol. So I plan to not have the car for a week or longer....we will see.

See like I said, they have a bunch of mid-range techs there at the dealerships. A solid race car shop could get it figured out pretty quick. Maybe GM would pay the bill from the other shop to fix it.

I know but I had to give them a shot. According to them the issue was resolved since the PCM was replaced. Ok if thats the case why did it frig up on me when I picked it up that night.

So I am going to the dealer Monday with my keys, going to take my car home, drive it. I will drive it on the public roads since they state there is no issue there. A: The car might be fixed and maybe it had to relearn something B: It will stall out on the hwy, mid traffic, intersection....and I will casue and accident.

I had a video on Youtube of the car acting up, and another with the radio playing....They stated to my Farther (HE had his truck in there today) that it is due to the stereo.......casue I had bass vids and **** on my youtube account.........

So I am going to the dealer monday getting the car, driving it with the stereo off, with the video camera record it in HD 1080p and then when it messes up I will call GM CAnada and ask them to send a real GM tech down to fix my car. two weeks and nothing was done, what if I did not call them every second day, would I hear from them? Doubt it. I am done with them. Getting the car, going to attempt to get it fixed at another garage where a gm tech I know works now..........if cant get it fixed taking all the audio out and getting a new rig......

Man what a bunch of retards. It's his Bass from his audio system. "???" LOL they are grabbing for something that you did because they are unable to solve it with a 'By the Book" method. Your right, I also believe if you did not stay in contact with them, you would not hear from them either till they figured enough time had passed or some crap. I bet in two weeks they only had the car in to a tech perhaps 5 hours maybe 8 tops because your car is hard to figure out the problem and they have to push other cars though and then get back to your car when they have down time. As you mentioned earlier the car only had a mile put on it when you got it back, oooh nice long test drive. I'm pissed for you, flippin tards.... I bet most of the time you have drove it lately your stereo is not even thumping as your focused on listening for the car to show symptoms of dying and such. It does sound like you need to go to a different shop. Poor you and poor Monte. Hopefully this next shop will make the right diagnosis and you can go back and tell them tards it was only a wire or connection that was bad. Take care, hope you have better news the next time you post and if I read of a Monte catching fire and burning to the ground I will know you pulled the plug on the car. LOL, everybody and everything has to die sometime............

Two full days of being driving they apparently have it fixed. I drove it myself and so did my farther. So in my books its fixed. I called another dealer and they said it takes a little bit for the computer to relearn the car. THey said there is some things that it will not learn it self, Cam and crank sensor but the rest is self learning.......so hence when I pulled it out of the parkinglot the first time it acted up. They (local dealer) should have known or told me that.
