Consumer Description

WHERE TO START...I HAVE A 2001 PONTIAC GRAND AM. WITHIN 2 MONTHS OF BUYING IT, MY FUEL PUMP & COMPUTER WENT OUT AT THE SAME TIME. NEXT WAS MY WATER PUMP & TIMING CHAIN. THEN WAS THE SECURITY SYSTEM, THEN THE TURN SIGNALS, THEN THE WINDOWS WOULDN'T ROLL DOWN. AND NOW MY BRAKES ARE HAVING TO BE REPLACED ON A CONSISTENT BASIS. THE ONLY THING COVERED BY GM WAS THE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH. ALL OTHER REPLACEMENTS WERE AT MY EXPENSE. AFTER RESEARCHING ON THIS SITE, I SEE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME KIND. I NOTIFIED GM AND THEY REFUSED TO HELP AT ALL. I EXPLAINED THAT SINCE THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME THINGS, IT HAS TO BE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. THEY SHRUGGED THAT OFF. THEY FINALLY SENT ME A LETTER STATING THAT THEY WOULD NO LONGER "ENTERTAIN" ANY OF MY COMMENTS OR COMPLAINTS. DO NOT BUY A PONTIAC!!! JUNK CITY!!! *NM
