Consumer Description

MY 2002 ZX3 BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS AFTER ONLY OWNING THE VEHICLE FOR SIX MONTHS. THE FIRST PROBLEM WAS WITH THE LOCKING MECHANISM WHICH WOULD MAKE A VERY LOUD BUZZING NOISE WHEN THE DOORS WOULD LOCK. THE SECOND PROBLEM BEGAN LAST WINTER WHEN THE CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER SITTING OUTSIDE OVERNIGHT. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FIVE TIMES OVER THE LAST YEAR FOR THIS PROBLEM AND EACH TIME THEY INFORM ME THAT THE PROBLEM IS FIXED. HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED AND MY VEHICLE CONTINUES TO BE UNRELIABLE. *NLM
