NHTSA Complaint #10171787 — 1999 PONTIAC GRAND AM

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
