I never said my service adviser said it was normal... where did you read that???

I said, your advisor does not think it is normal. Not Chevy.

Took it in this morning for the second time and the dealer was very apologetic and gave me a rental HHR and said they would let me know when it will be done. when i dropped mine off i saw a red SS sitting in the service bay, I asked what it was in for and he said the same thing mine was. So I get a call about 2pm from my adviser and he said they have been on the phone with GM all morning for both cars and there is "No Fix but GM is aware of the problem and looking for a solution" so he says they cannot release the car and they will give me a call on monday to let me know what my options are...

First off, I absolute love my HHR SS. But I have been ignoring this no brakes issue. I just figured to use the remote started and let it idle for a couple of minutes before backing out of my driveway. But this thread and the halt of 2009 orders has me wondering. I will be visiting the dealer tomorrow to set up an appointment. Hope this is no big deal I can't imagine driving any other car.
