| 2002 | VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER SYSTEM:REAR WINDOW | I RENTED A 2003 PONTIAC GRAND AM ON FEB. 04, 2003. IT WAS VERY COLD, AT NIGHT, AND SNOWING HEAVILY. I TURNED ON THE REAR DEFOGGER. IT FAILED TO CLEAR THE REAR WINDOW, AND I TURNED IT ON AGAIN AFTER NOTICING THAT IT HAD TURNED OFF. ABOUT 30 SECONDS LATER THE REAR WINDOW EXPLODED; THERE WAS NO PROJECTILE FOUND. MY WIFE, WHO WAS WITH ME WHEN IT HAPPENED, AND I BELIEVE IT HAS TO BE A FACTORY DEFECT, AND WE SHOULD NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE, YET WE ARE BEING CHARGED BY BUDGET, WHO WAS CHARGED BY THE DEALER, FOR THE REPAIR. *JB |
| 2004 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL | I HAVE A 2004 GRAND AM. I BOUGHT IT FROM A DEALERSHIP USED WITH APPROX. 36,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE HAD IT FOR ONLY 4 MONTHS AND HAVE ALREADY REPLACED THE IGNITION SENSOR, AND HAVE BEEN TOLD TO REPLACE THE O2 SENSOR AS WELL. NOW THE CAR RANDOMLY LOSES ALL POWER WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS. THIS ANNOYANCE IS ACCOMPANIED WITH THE CAR ALSO NOT EVEN TURNING OVER ON SOME OCCASIONS. THE CAR CANNOT BE COUNTED ON. I'M TAKING IT IN FOR TESTING. *JB |
