ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:SWITCH
MY WIFE HAS A 2002 PONTIAC GRAND AM GT. ABOUT A MONTH AGO 10/2006, FOR THE FIRST TIME, HER CAR WOULD NOT START. IT HAD FULL BATTERY, ALL THE ACCESSORIES STARTED UP WITH THE KEY BEING FITTED INTO THE IGNITION AND TURNED TO THE ON POSITION. UPON HAVING IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND GETTING A SONG AND DANCE ABOUT THE BODY CONTROL UNIT ""POSSIBLY"" BEING DAMP ""COULD"" OF CAUSED THE MALFUNCTION, THEY REPLACED IT FOR ABOUT 300.00 DOLLARS. THIS MORNING (11/14/2006), MY WIFE WENT OUT TO HER CAR AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. IT WOULD NOT START. I NOW STARTED RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET TO SEE IF I COULD FIND A SOLUTION TO THIS MYSELF. I FOUND A PLETHORA OF INDIVIDUALS, ALL WITH 2002 GRAND AMS, ALL HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE. IT SEEMS THAT IN 2002 GRAND AMS A PROBLEM WITH THE SECURITY SYSTEM PREVENTS YOU FROM STARTING YOUR CAR. THE ONLY WORK AROUND IS TO SIT IN YOUR CAR FOR BETWEEN 10 TO 15 MINUTES WITH THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND TURNED ON. AFTER SAID AMOUNT OF TIME THE SECURITY LIGHT SHOULD STOP BLINKING, AND YOU CAN THEN ""POSSIBLY"" START YOUR CAR. I DO UNDERSTAND THAT NHTSA IS ONLY CONCERNED ABOUT VEHICLE DEFECTS THAT POSE A THREAT WHILE OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE. BEING A POLICE OFFICER, I SEE THE POTENTIAL OF A THREAT BY HAVING A VEHICLE NOT START. I DO NOT WANT MY WIFE SITTING IN A DARK PARKING LOT FOR 10-15 MINUTES WHILE THE SECURITY SYSTEM HAS HER VEHICLE DISABLED. WHAT IF SHE SOUGHT REFUGE IN HER CAR TO TRY TO ESCAPE SOMEONE WHO WAS CHASING HER? WHAT ABOUT ALL THESE OTHER GRAND AM OWNERS? YOU CAN DO A GOOGLE OR YAHOO SEARCH FOR "2002 GRAND AM WILL NOT START". YOU WILL THEN SEE THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE AND MIGHT WANT TO TAKE THESE INCIDENTS INTO CONSIDERATION FOR A POSSIBLE RECALL. *NM

SEATS
DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE DRIVER SEAT DID NOT LOCK IN PLACE WHEN ADJUSTING THE SEAT OR WHILE DRIVING. THIS OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED. THE VEHICLE WAS EXAMINED BY A DEALER WHO DETERMINED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE DESIGN, WHICH COULD BE ADJUSTED MANUALLY AND MECHANICALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL DUE TO THE VIN. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:SWITCH, EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM:FAN
GRINDING SOUND IN FRONT BRAKES. DEALER REPLACED ROTORS AT MY EXPENSE. STILL MAKING GRINDING NOICE. BREAKS SEEM TO HAVE BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN 2001. RECALL OF BLINKER SWITCH. BLINKING (INSIDE ABOVE RADIO) NOISE CAME BACK AFTER 1 YEAR. DEALER SAYS THAT RECALL WAS FOR THE HAZARD LIGHTS NOT THE TURN SIGNALS? CAR WON'T START AND SECURITY LIGHT ON. HAVE TO WAIT 10 MINUTES WITH CAR IN (ON) POSITION AND THEN CAR WILL START..THIS INFORMATION IS LOCATED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL (ARE THEY EXPECTING THIS PROBLEM?) DEALER SAID AT FIRST THAT MY KEY WAS WORN OUT THAT'S WHY IT'S NOT READING IT CORRECTLY AND THEN LATER STATED THAT THE SENSOR WAS BAD IN THE IGNITION SWITCH. HAD TO REPLACE IGNITION SENSOR SWITCH AT MY EXPENSE. REAR FLOOR BOARD BEHIND DRIVERS SIDE GETS WET. NO KNOWN CAUSE. RECENTLY THE SERVICE VEHICLE SOON LITE CAME ON. DEALER REPAIRED AT MY EXPENSE. DEALER SAID THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE OUT AND A PART WAS CRACKED. HEATER/AC BUTTONS 1 AND 2 DO NOT WORK. RECENTLY NOTICED THAT WHEN I DRIVE I HEAR GRINDING SOUNDS SEEMS TO BE COMING FROM THE BODY OF THE CAR, LIKE IT'S COMING UNSCREWED. JUST TOOK MY CAR IN FOR REPAIRS OF IGNITION SWITCH, 4 NEW TIRES, A BACK SEAT SEATBELT REPLACEMENT AND MY DRIVERS SIDE AUTOMATE SEAT ADJUSTER WAS WORKING THE MORNING I TOOK IT IN. WHEN I PICKED UP MY CAR IT WAS MAKING A GRINDING SOUND AND THE SEAT CUSHION WAS TORN. SERVICE MANAGER SAYS THEY WILL REPLACE THE SEAT CUSHION BUT THEY DON'T THINK THEY BROKE THE SEAT ADJUSTER AND THE SERVICE MANAGER SAYS THAT MAYBE THE SEAT ADJUSTER JUST DECIDED TO GO ON THAT PARTICULAR DAY. I'M NOW FIGHTING TO HAVE THEM REPAIR WHAT THEY BROKE. I WILL NEVER GO TO NUCAR PONTIAC IN DELAWARE FOR REPAIRS AGAIN. THIS IS THE WORST CAR I'VE EVER OWNED. I THINK MOST OF THESE PROBLEMS SHOULD BE RECALLS SINCE MANY PEOPLE HAVE THEM. I WILL NEVER BUY A GM CAR AGAIN. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP TO MAKE THE CAR MAKERS RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR POOR WORKMANSHIP. *NM

STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS
I PURCHASED A USED VEHICLE IN MARCH 2006. AT THAT TIME I WAS PROVIDED A "CAR REPORT" THAT SHOWED NO ACCIDENT HISTORY/CLEAN TO EVERYTHING. AT A LATER TIME I WENT TO PURCHASE NEW INSURANCE AND I WAS FIRST ALERTED TO AN "ACCIDENT". I FOUND OUT THE VEHICLE WAS IN AN ACCIDENT IN JUNE 2002, OVER $700.00 IN DAMAGE. IN 2003 AGAIN, WAS TAKEN TO A BODY SHOP FOR REPAIRS. I HAVE TRIED TO WORK WITH THE DEALERSHIP TO HANDLE THIS SITUATION. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ONE OF THEIR VENDORS-SAME OUTCOME. MY VENDOR SAME OUTCOME--EXTENSIVE DAMAGE/FRAME STRAIGHTENING ETC. I ASKED FOR MY MONEY BACK OR A NEW VEHICLE. THEY REFUSED. IT WOULD COST MORE TO FIX THIS CAR THAN IT IS WORTH. I NEED SOME ASSISTANCE. I LOOKED THEM UP ON THE BBB AND THEY HAVE 55 REPORTS IN 36 MONTHS. NOT TO MENTION THEY ARE MAKING A 1000% PROFIT OFF OF ME. *JB

WHEELS:HUB, SEAT BELTS:REAR/OTHER
NOT A SAFETY PRECAUTION. I DRIVE A 2001 PONTIAC GRAND AM. EVERY CAR THAT MAKE AND YEAR MODEL HAVE BROKEN HUB CAPS, MINE INCLUDED. THEY RATTLE FOR A WHILE THEN THEY BREAK IN HALF. THERE HAS GOT TO BE SOME SORT OF DEFECT IF IT'S JUST THAT MAKE AND MODEL. THE NOISE IS EMBARRASSING AND ANNOYING. I FEEL THAT THE PONTIAC COMPANY SHOULD LOOK IN TO THE PROBLEM AND FIX IT. ALSO, REAR MIDDLE SEATBELT NEVER STAYED TIGHT. LOOSENS VERY EASILY WHILE MY CHILD IS WEARING IT AND WHEN MY CHILD WAS IN A CAR SEAT. *NM

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:STARTER ASSEMBLY:RELAY
IN NOVEMBER OF 2005 I PURCHASE A 2001 PONTIAC GRAND AM GT. A COUPLE OF DAYS OF HAVING THE CAR, WHEN I WENT OVER A BUMP THE CAR STALLED ON ME. I THOUGHT IT WAS A ONE TIME THING. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME NOTHING WAS WRONG. WHEN IT HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES, I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT ALL OF MY RELAYS WERE BAD AND THAT IT WOULD COST ME $700. OUT OF COST POCKET. THEY TOLD ME THIS WHEN MY WARRANTY EXPIRED. I THOUGHT I HAD A 90 DAY WARRANTY, BUT IT TURN OUT THAT I HAD A 30 DAY WARRANTY. I THINK THEY KNEW WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR, BUT WAITED UNTIL MY WARRANTY EXPIRED, SO THEY WOULDN'T HAVE TO FIX IT. MY CAR IS ONLY YEARS OLD AND IT HAS 42K ON IT. SO HOW CAN ALL OF THE RELAYS BE BAD? THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT SINCE I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THE CAR, THAT I COULD OF DAMAGE THE RELAYS MYSELF. I DIDN'T BUY THE CAR FOR IT TO SIT IN THE DRIVEWAY, I BOUGHT IT SO I COULD DRIVE IT. I CALLED THE LEMON LAW, THEY TOLD ME THEY ONLY COVER THE ENGINE, I ALSO CALLED GM CORP, THEY CALLED THE DEALER AND THE DEALER TOLD THEM THAT THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD SPLIT THE COST OF THE RELAYS. WHICH THEY NEVER SAID THAT, I HAVE A WITNESS THAT CAN STATE THAT THEY NEVER OFFER TO SPLIT THE COST TO REPAIR THE CAR. I AM AT THE END OF MY ROPE. YOU ARE MY LAST HOPE. *NM

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HAZARD FLASHING WARNING LIGHTS
SEVERAL TIMES SINCE PURCHASING MY 2003 PONTIAC, THERE IS INTERMITTENT CLICKING COMING FROM THE HAZARD SWITCH AREA IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND SEVERAL INSTANCES OF TAIL LIGHT, TURN SIGNAL, AND HAZARD LIGHT FAILURE. HAVE HAD THE PROBLEM DIAGNOSED BY A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD IT IS COMING FROM THE MULTI FUNCTION SWITCH IN THE STEERING COLUMN AND WILL COST MORE THAN $300 TO FIX. I HAVE FOUND OTHER REPORTS OF THIS MALFUNCTION FROM PONTIAC OWNERS FROM 1999 UP THROUGH 2004 AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND A RECALL FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE HAZARD SWITCH. MY HAZARD SWITCH HAS BEEN REPLACED AND DID NOT ALLEVIATE THE PROBLEM. *JB

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:ANTI-THEFT:CONTROL MODULE, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP
PASSLOCK FAILURE. PASSLOCK SHUTS DOWN FUEL SUPPLY. IT IS SUPPOSE TO IF THE PASSLOCK/IGNITION REPORTS TO THE COMPUTER THAT THE IGNITION HAS BEEN TAMPERED WITH. HUNDREDS OF TIMES PASSLOCK COMES ON AND I CANNOT START MY CAR WITHOUT WAITING AND DOING THE 10 MINUTE PROCEDURE. HAPPENED WHILE I WAS AT A 7-11 ONE TIME, SOME UNSAVORY LOOKING CHARACTERS SAME OVER TO ME, I FLASHED MY PEPPER SPRAY AND CELL PHONE AND SAID I AM CALLING THE POLICE. LUCKILY THEY RAN OFF. ALSO COMES ON WHILE I AM DRIVING WHICH IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. CAR WOULD DIE COMPLETELY OR RUN OK IF NOT ON A HILL OR INCLINE. HAPPENED SO MANY TIMES THAT THE FUEL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT 50,000 MILES. TWO PONTIAC DEALERS SUGGESTED NEW IGNITION TO BE INSTALLED TO "SEE" IF THAT WILL FIX IT. I WILL NOT PAY TO "SEE" IF THAT WILL FIX IT. AS I RESEARCH THE INTERNET OVER 17,000 PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND REPORTED IT TO VARIOUS SITES. THOSE ARE ONLY THE PEOPLE WHO THINK OF LOOKING ON THE INTERNET TO SEE IF IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM. I DID WRITE GM RECENTLY TO SEE IF THEY COULD DO SOMETHING. HAVE NOT HEARD BACK YET. CAN YOU HELP? AS I RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND CARS AND SUV'S THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS SINCE 1999. WHY HASN'T GM DISCONTINUED OR FIXED THAT PASSLOCK ISSUES IN ALL THOSE YEARS? MUST COST TO MUCH HAVE A RECALL. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE? HOPE NOT. THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOU TIME AND WORK THAT GOES TO HELPING KEEP PEOPLE SAFE. *JB

EQUIPMENT, LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:CRUISE CONTROL
PONTIAC GRAND AM 2005, I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN JUNE 2006. SINCE JUNE I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. I HAD TO HAVE THE WINDOW LOCK PANEL ON THE DRIVERS SIDE REATTACHED, BECAUSE IT FELL OUT. THE ENGINE STALLS AND WON'T START HALF THE TIME. DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WILL NOT ROLL DOWN. REAR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW LEAKS AIR CONSTANTLY, AND WATER WHEN IT RAINS. BRAKES DON'T ALWAYS STOP AND MAKE A GRINDING NOISE. ALSO SOMETIME ACCELERATES WHEN HITTING BRAKE. ENGINE MAKES A SQUEAKING NOISE WHEN DRIVING IT. CRUISE CONTROL ONLY WORKS EVERY NOW AND THEN, AND I HAVE ALREADY HAD TO CHANGE THE TIRES. THIS CAR ONLY HAS UNDER 36,000 MILES ON IT AND ALL THE PROBLEMS ARE OCCURRING. I GAVE ALMOST $18,000 FOR THIS CAR (WHICH WAS WAY TO MUCH ANYWAYS, BUT THEY REASSURED ME THAT IT WAS A GOOD CAR, AND I WOULD HAVE NO PROBLEMS OUT OF IT) AND AM PAYING $340.00 A MONTH. THE DEALERSHIP (ALEX MONTGOMERY) TELLS ME THEY CAN FIX IT BUT IT IS GOING TO COST ME. I DON'T HAVE A JOB NOW AND HAVEN'T HAD ONE SINCE JULY 2006. I AM EXPECTING MY THIRD CHILD, I AM A SINGLE MOTHER, I HAVE NO MONEY, AND THEY WON'T TRADE BECAUSE I AM UNEMPLOYED YOU CAN'T GET A LOAN WHEN YOUR UNEMPLOYED. *NM

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:CRUISE CONTROL
THE CRUISE CONTROL ON THE BOTTOM OF MY STEERING WHEEL HAS COME UNDONE. THE CASE HOUSING AROUND IT POPPED OFF, AND NOW IT WON'T SECURE BACK ONTO IT. THE THREE CONTROL BUTTONS USED FOR CRUISE CONTROL NOW SLIDE OUT, AND THE "ON" BUTTON WON'T STAY PRESSED. THE CAR WORKS FINE, SHORT OF THE FRUSTRATIONS OF NOT BEING ABLE TO USE CRUISE CONTROL, AND HAVING THAT MAJOR EYE SORE INSIDE THE VEHICLE. *NM

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING:INTERIOR/UNDER DASH
I HAVE A 2004 PONTIAC GRAND AM WITH 40,000 MILES ON IT. THE OTHER DAY I WAS SIGNALING A LANE CHANGE AND NOW THE CLICKING SOUND BEHIND MY HAZARD WARNING SWITCH IS CONSTANTLY ON AND OFF. SOMETIMES MY HAZARD LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNALS TURN ON AND OFF BY THEMSELVES. NOT ONLY ARE THESE THINGS VERY ANNOYING BUT ARE DANGEROUS. I KNOW THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM ON EARLIER MODEL YEARS OF MY VEHICLE AND AN INVESTIGATION WAS CONDUCTED FOR THOSE VEHICLE. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM THAT THE MANUFACTURER REFUSES TO CORRECTLY ADDRESS. PLEASE EXPAND YOUR INVESTIGATION TO MORE MODEL YEARS OF MY VEHICLE. *NM

EQUIPMENT, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM:INJECTORS
IN NOVEMBER 2004 MY "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT CAME ON ALONG WITH THE "TRAC OFF" LIGHT. AFTER FLIPPING THROUGH MY CARS MANUAL I DECIDED TO HAVE IT SERVICED WITH THE DEALER I ORIGINALLY BOUGHT IT FROM. AT ONLY 60,000 MILES THEY DETERMINED ALL OF MY FUEL INJECTORS WENT BAD. I HAD TO REPLACE THESE AND WITH LABOR CHARGES IT COST ME NEARLY $1,000. APPROXIMATELY 11 MONTHS LATER, THE SAME LIGHTS STARTED TO COME ON AGAIN. I IMMEDIATELY DROVE THE CAR TO DEALER WHERE THEY PROCEEDED TO EXPLAIN THAT MY FUEL INJECTORS WENT BAD A SECOND TIME. THEY FIRST REPLACEMENTS WERE UNDER WARRANTY, I WAS REQUIRED TO PAY LABOR. UNFORTUNATELY THIS PAST WEEK THE LIGHTS FOR THE FUEL INJECTORS CAME ON AGAIN, AND IS CURRENTLY GETTING DIAGNOSED. THIS WILL BE MY THIRD SET OF FUEL INJECTORS IN 36 MONTHS. THE ONLY THING THE DEALER WILL DO IS REPLACE THE FUEL INJECTORS, BUT UNFORTUNATELY THEY CAN'T PROMISE THIS WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN. I FEEL THAT THE FUEL INJECTORS THAT WERE INITIALLY REPLACED, AND THE REPLACEMENTS AFTER THEM HAVE BEEN FAULTY. *NM

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WELL I'VE CALLED AND TALKED TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT IS LOCATED IN LEXINGTON,KY (PAUL MILLER FORD). I HAVE TALKED TO THE SALE'S MAN THAT HAVE SOLD THIS CAR TO ME THAT I'M HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THAT I HAVE ONLY BEEN HAVING FOR ABOUT THREE WEEKS NOW. TALKED TO HIM AND HE TOLD ME THAT THEIR WASN'T NOTHING TO BE DONE AT ALL... IN OTHER WORDS THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO FOR YOU. WHEN I GOT THIS CAR THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT IT'S BEEN CHECKED OUT AND THERE WASN'T NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AND ALSO THAT A OLDER LADY HAD IT ALREADY MAINTAINED BEFORE WE GOT THE CAR. THE PROBLEM WITH THE CAR IS THAT IT WONT START WHEN IT'S COLD,BRAKES MAKE SOME TIME OF FUNNY NOISE,TURN THE AIR UP TO LEVEL 3 FOR IT TO COME ON,SECURITY LIGHT IS COMING ON,IT'S EATING UP GAS REALLY BAD. I'M HOPING THAT SOMEONE CAN HELP ME THEN TELL SOME BULL AND FIND A PROBLEM TO MY SOLUTION. ALSO, I HAVE A WARRANTY ON THE CAR THAT I'M HAVING PROBLEMS WITH AND I WORK. I'M IN RISK OF LOOSENING MY JOB OVER THIS MATTER. NO MONEY, NO CAR PAYMENT AND NO JOB! *NM
