98 Z28 dies on highway........
I drive a 98 Z28, I bought it brand new in January 99.
It has just over 26,000 miles on it, but the warranty has expired as it's more than 3 years old.
Today it died while I was driving down the highway, with my 12 year old daughter also in the car.
It sounded as if it backfired, big noise, then it died.
I had no steering, the steering wheel locked and the car just died.
Thank goodness there was no car behind us or we could have been killed, if another vehicle had ploughed into our car from behind.
The car did start again and I drove slowly on the side of the highway all the way to the local Chevy service place.
They have the car now, but won't even look at it till tomorrow.
Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong with my car, or had a similar problem?
This car has just over 26,000 miles on it.
Yesterday when I tried to start it, it backfired and died in my garage.
But I really didn't think about it, stupidly.
Now it stops point blank in the middle of the highway, putting our lives in extreme danger.
Any ideas guys?!!
