Pontiac Grand Am Electrical System Safety Report | July 05, 2008
Reported on July 05, 2008
| I HAVE A 2001 PONTIAC GRAND AM THAT I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. NOW FOR THE SECOND TIM IN THREE YEARS I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE PASSLOCK SENSOR AND THE IGNITION SWITCH CYLINDER. THIS FIX HAS COST ME OVER $700.00 EACH TIME NOT INCLUDING THE TOW. I AM A MOTHER OF TWO KIDS THAT WORKS FULL-TIME AND GOES TO SCHOOL PART TIME, THIS PROBLEM HAS DRAINED ME OF MONEY THAT I USE TO SUPPORT MY CHILDREN. I HAVE MISSED WORK AND SCHOOL BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. THERE ARE FORUMS THAT I HAVE LOOKED AT AND READ WITH PEOPLE GOING THROUGH THE SAME ISSUE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A GM DEALER AND ALSO A MECHANIC IN ORDER TO FIX THIS PROBLEM THAT'S WHEN I REALIZED IT WAS THE SAME ISSUE. I COMPARED NOTES. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS GOING TO BE HAPPENING AGAIN IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS ACCORDING TO MY MECHANIC, WHO HAS ALSO HEARD PEOPLE DISCUSSING THIS SAME ISSUE. *TR | |
