Consumer Description

I HAVE A BURGUNDY 2002 GRAND PRIX. WHENEVER I TURN IT ON, IT HAS AN EXTENDED CRANK. IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS STRUGGLING TO TURN ON. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER THREE TIMES AND AM SCHEDULED TO TAKE IT IN AGAIN A FOURTH TIME. THE LAST TIME I WAS THERE THEY TOLD ME THAT ALL OF THE 2002 MODELS HAD AN EXTENDED CRANK AND THAT THERE WAS PROBABLY NOTHING THAT COULD FIX IT. *JB
