The other issue is very serious. The doors lock automatically when the vehicle is not in drive or the engine is running. Case in point, my wife stopped at the service station to fill up with fuel,left the keys in the ignition close the door and started to fuel up. Part way in the filling as she stood there outside of the vehicle,her purse inside on the seat and the doors locked on their own. She then had to barrow someones cell phone to call on-star to unlock the doors. I did not think much on it and thought she had did something to trigger the action. Well one day I was in the sitting truck and waiting for my wife. I have the key in the ignition,the engine not running and then the doors locked by themselves. I did nothing to trigger this. Now I believe there is something very wrong. This locking by themselves will be very serious if a mother has an child or infant inside the vehicle and he or she is Possibly getting fuel or something. What if this happened and the child or infant started choking or convulsions or a very hot day and help is many minutes away. Does Chevrolet not care? Do the people who choose Chevrolet get a raw deal?

The dealer had no record of any such complaints insofar as the doors locking by themselves. What a pain! They indicated that it could be a faulty remote. In my case, the remote battery was weak so I replaced it and tried it out with the car running. Good news so far - the doors didn't lock on their own. Might be a possible cheap fix (battery was 2 bucks).
