The ac delco battery post came off of the battery. The clamp and cable were tight, the post was eaten in two from the inside.

Problem with message center, security lite comes on then battery lite, then service vehicle soon, then air conditioning would not turn on, started funny, did not start turning over when I first turned the key it started to turn over about 1 sec after turning the key and started ok then. All of this happened a the same time for the first time. Prior to this I reported a popping/snapping noise when you turned the key. The chev dealer said this was normal (3 weeks prior to the problem).

When the consumer accelerated from a stop he heard a clicking noise. The transmission had gone out. The battery had gone dead and had a crack in it. Also, while the vehicle was in motion, going 65 mph in cruise, the motor suddenly sped up then slowed down and a grinding noise was heard.
