#709302July 27, 1999
SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
ABS FAILURE CAUSING BRAKING PROBLEM: LOW TRAC LIGHT IS COMING ON DURING BRAKING OF THE VEHICLE WHICH IS CAUSING THE SYSTEM TO AUTOMATICALLY RELEASE THE BRAKES MOMENTARILY TO KEEP THE VEHICLE FROM SLIDING (FOR A SPLIT SECOND IT FEELS LIKE YOU DON'T HAVE ANY BRAKES) AND THEN THE BRAKES GRAB AGAIN AND THE VEHICLE STOPS HARD. THIS PROBLEM JUST RECENTLY STARTED AND IS OCCURRING EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS BROUGHT TO A FULL STOP NO MATTER WHAT TYPE OF ROAD SURFACE. ALSO, "ABS INOPER" LIGHT IS COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY AND STAYING LIT FOR PERIODS OF TIME. I'M VERY CONCERNED WITH THIS FAILURE IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM.

#707788June 22, 1999
VISIBILITY:GLASS, SIDE/REAR, EQUIPMENT:APPLIANCE:AIR CONDITIONER
THE REAR WINDOW MOULDING IS MELTING AWAY FROM AROUND THE WINDOW. WE BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW ,AND THE MOULDING SHOULDN'T BE COMING OFF THE WINDOW. WE KEEP OUR CAR PARKED ON THE CAR PORCH, SO IS PROTECTED FROM THE WEATHER. WE BOUGHT OUR OTHER CAR BRAND NEW, AND IT IS A CHEVEROLET CORSICA BACK IN 1987 AND WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE MOLDING MELTING AWAY FROM THE WINDOW. I FEEL THAT I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR HAVING THE MOULDING PUT BACK ON, AND THE CAR IS ALMOST PAID FOR. THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE; YOU BUY A CAR BRAND NEW AND YOU TAKE CARE OF IT AND YOU STILL HAVE UNNECESSARY PROBLEMS WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF BEFORE IT LEFT THE ASSEMBLY LINE. *AK

POWER TRAIN:CLUTCH ASSEMBLY:PEDAL/HAND LEVER(MOTORCYCLE)
WHEN I PUSH IN THE CLUTCH TO CHANGE GEARS, IT VIBRATES AND MAKES A GRINDING NOISE. I HAVE HAD IT CHECKED OUT BY A MECHANIC AT SATURN AND HE SAYS IT IS THE THROW OUT BEARING. ANOTHER MECHANIC AT FIRESTONE SAYS THE SAME THING, AND THAT IT SHOULDN'T BE GOING OUT THAT EARLY. IT IS CONSTANTLY GETTING WORSE AND I AM FRUSTRATED THAT IT IS BAD.

#703031February 7, 1999
POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY:AXLE SHAFT:SEAL, POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DRIVESHAFT
I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY AT 8,000 MILES. THIS CAR HAS ME AFFRAID TO DRIVE IT. IT IS VERY UNREASOABLE THAT A DRIVESHAFT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT 26,000 MILES, OR THAT REAL AXELS ARE REPLACED THEN THEY LEAK AGAIN AND HAVE TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. I WAS TOLD TO DRIVE VEHICLE INTO DEALERSHIP WHEN IT WOULDN'T STOP AND WAS UNDER WARRANTEE. I MYSELF SCHEDULED A TOW, IT COULD HAVE KILLED SOMEONE THEY DIDN';T EVEN CARE. I CALLED GMC, AND THEY DON'T CARE EITHER. I HAVE A LEMON THAT I AM AFFRAID OFF. I ALSO DID NOT GET THE KEYLESS ENTRY THAT CAME WITH THIS VECHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME I REALLY DIDN'T WANT IT ANYWAY. IT WAS TROUBLE BUT I PAID FOR IT. I NEVER GOT THE STICKER FROM THE WINDOW EITHER. I PAID 21,000 FOR THIS JUNK HEAP THAT IS A DANGER TO THE ROAD. I AM 52 AND DRIVE CAREFULLY AND BABY THIS CAR. I TALKED WITH GMC, AND THEY ARE NOT INTERESTED IN WHAT I HAVE TO SAY. WHAT WILL BRAKE NEXT? MY MECHANIC WAS APPALLED THAT THIS LAST THING. A DRIVE SHAFT ON A CAR FAILED WITH 26,000 MILES. SOMETHING IS WRONG. *AK
