When driving i keep smelling an odor coming from the venting system when the heat is on. at times the odor is stronger than other times, and even nauseating at times. i keep telling dealership that it is a chemical smell. finally after having my car in shop twice they said that chevy did a bulletin on a "heating box" and that it is too hot and needs to be replaced. we will see if that is what it is. *tr
