Consumer Description

I OWN A 2001 GRAND AM SE 2.4L. I'VE HAD NOTHING BUT TROUBLES WITH THIS CAR SINCE I BOUGHT IT. HERE'S THE LIST OF SOME OF THE THINGS I'VE HAD TO REPLACE ON THE CAR: ALTERNATOR, STARTER, IGNITION MODULE, COILS AND HOUSING UNIT, AND NOW THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM IS JUNK!! THIS CAR HAS SEVERAL TIMES PUT ME IN DANGER BECAUSE OF IT STALLING JUST AFTER STOPPING OR JUST AFTER GOING AFTER A START. WHICH MEANS I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION WHEN IT STALLS. I'M TAKING IT TO THE DEALER FRIDAY TO GET THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM FIXED BECAUSE MY SECURITY LIGHT IS ON. I WANT THIS CAR TO BE RECALLED OR TO GET REIMBURSED FOR THE COST AND TIME I'VE HAD TO PUT INTO THIS CAR WHICH IS A LOT$$$*JB
