2002 PONTIAC GRAND AM Service Brakes, Hydraulic Problems

AFTER HAVING THE 2ND CATALYTIC CONVERTER IN 2 YRS PUT ON THE ELECTRICAL WENT HAYWIRE. THE ABS,TRAC OFF & SERVICE ENGINE LIGHTS COME & STAY ON FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I'VE HAD IT SERVICED AND NOBODY KNOWS WHY THIS IS HAPPENING. I HAD THE BRAKES INSPECTED AND GIVEN A CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH SO TO SPEAK & YET AT RANDOM TIMES I HAVE NO BRAKES EVEN AFTER HAVING THEM INSPECTED BY PROFESSIONALS. THE CAR NOW OVERHEATS DUE TO THE DEX COOL I WAS TOLD TO USE BECAUSE IT ATE THRU THE CHEAP GASKETS PUT ON BY THE DEALERSHIP WHICH THEY WILL NOT COVER. THE BLINKERS HAVE A MIND OF THEIR OWN AND ONLY WORK DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS, I'VE HAD THOSE CHECKED & NEW ONES INSTALLED AS WELL AND THEY STILL ONLY WORK IN THE DAYTIME AND FINALLY THE PLASTIC WINDOW CLIPS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE(BOTH) BREAK CONSTANTLY. I'VE HAD EVERYTHING REPLACED EVEN HE ENGINE! THIS CAR HAS COST ME OVER 20,000. *TR

LEAVING WORK ON DECEMBER 19, 2007 I APPLIED BRAKES FOR APPROACHING TRAFFIC SIGNAL. BRAKES SEEMED TO LOCK WITHOUT SLOWING DOWN OR STOPPING MY VEHICLE. I TRIED THREE TIMES APPLYING INCREASING PRESSURE AND THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. FINALLY, AFTER 4TH ATTEMPT, BRAKE SEEMED TO GIVE AND SLOW/STOP MY VEHICLE. I WAS WITHIN INCHES OF REAR-ENDING VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME AT THE TRAFFIC LIGHT. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT LOCATE ANYTHING WRONG. BRAKES CONTINUE TO MALFUNCTION PARTICULARLY IF MY CAR IS COLD OR NOT USED FOR A PERIOD OF HOURS. NOW I HAVE RESORTED TO TESTING THE BRAKES PRIOR TO DRIVING. I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND MY 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WHO HAS RECENTLY STARTED DRIVING THE CAR. MY 2002 PONTIAC GRAND AM WAS PURCHASED NEW IN APRIL 2002 AND ONLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 45,000 MILES. BRAKE PADS HAVE ALREADY BEEN REPLACED ONE AND MECHANIC TELL ME THAT THEY ARE ONLY SLIGHTLY WORN SO DO NOT NEED REPLACEMENT CURRENTLY. *TR

FRONT END ROTOR PROBLEMS. REPLACED ROTORS THREE TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW 02/2004. THE FIRST TIME WAS IN 04/2004. ALSO HAD TO REPLACE BOTH FRONT WINDOW MOTORS DUE TO FAILURE. HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 5 TIMES AND ONLY HAS 39000 MILES ON IT. *NM

Mileage: 24,932

BOUGHT THE CAR IN 03 HAD 30000 MILES ON IT. RAN GREAT, LOVED THE POWER... THEN ABOUT 6 MONTHS LATER(36,000) IT STARTED.. FIRST WAS THE BRAKE PADS, REPLACED THOSE, FOUND OUT THAT THE PADS HAD BEEN INSTALLED INCORRECTLY, THUS WORE THE ROTORS. REPLACED THE ROTORS. HEARD THE CLICKING SOUND FROM UNDER THE DASH, TOOK CAR TO ELECTRICIAN, REPLACED THE RELAY.... 1 YEAR LATER, HEARD GRINDING FROM FRONT WHEELS, AGAIN.... FOUND OUT THE CALIPERS WERE STUCK AT FULL BRAKE, SO THE PADS, ROTORS AND CALIPERS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HAD THE CAR STALL AS IF IT WERE OUT OF GAS.... COULD NOT RESTART, HAD TO LEAVE UNTIL MORNING(IT WAS 3:00 AM AT THE TIME), CAR RESTARTED JUST FINE IN MORNING, STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT WAS ALL ABOUT. NOW RADIO ANTENNA WENT OUT, CD PLAYER SKIPS LIKE I AM RUNNING OVER SPEED BUMPS ALL THE TIME. ALSO BACK SPEAKERS WENT OUT.. INVESTIGATED AND FOUND THAT THE METAL ON THE SPEAKERS WAS INSTALLED TOUCHING THE FRAME IN THE BACK WINDOW, CAUSING THEM TO SHORT OUT... NOW CAR IS SURGING AT NORMAL SPEEDS, SUSPECT BAD FUEL PUMP.. AND ONCE AGAIN THE LICKING IS BACK AGAIN. GM HAS PAID $0 FOR REPAIRS. THEY SAY IT IS NOT THEIR FAULT... FUNNY, I DID NOT INSTALL THESE THINGS AND THEY ARE APPARENTLY PROBLEMS THAT GM HAS BEEN HAVING. I LOVE(RATHER LOVED) GM. I HAVE ALWAYS KNOWN THEM TO BE RELIABLE AND STURDY. THIS CAR HAS TAUGHT ME OTHERWISE. I CAN NOW SEE THE DIRECTION THAT GM IS GOING AND I WILL NEVER BUY A GM VEHICLE AGAIN. IF ANYONE HAS ANY OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THEIR CARS THEY CAN NOT FIGURE OUT, LET ME KNOW. I HAVE BEEN THROUGH THIS CAR ABOUT A 100 TIMES AND KNOW WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR. HOPING GM WAKES UP AND MAKES QUALITY CARS AGAIN. *JB

WE PURCHASE A 2002 PONTIAC GRAND AM SE IN JULY OF 2005 FROM CHAMPION CHEVROLET IN BRIGHTON MICHIGAN, WE HAD IT IN TO DEALER WITHIN THE FIRST FEW WEEKS OF OWNING IT, WHICH THEY DIDN'T REPAIR THAT DAY BECAUSE WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE WOULD TAKE TO LONG SO IT WAS TAKEN IN THE FOLLOWING SAT. HAD THE ABS,TRAC CONTROL AND THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON SENSOR WAS REPLACED AND THERE WAS A NOISE UNDER THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE WHICH WAS FIXED BUT CAME BACK A WEEK LATER THEY TOLD US THAT THE NOISE WAS NORMAL, I DON'T BELIEVE THIS AS NONE OF OUR OTHER CARS MAKE THIS NOISE NOT EVEN OUR CHEVY PICKUP TRUCK. WE ALSO HAD IT BACK IN AGAIN FOR THE SENSORS FOR THE ABS, TRAC CONTROL AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT THAT KEEPS COMING ON. WE CONT'D TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND STILL DON'T HAVE IT FIXED. WHEN THE LIGHTS COME ON I DON'T HAVE MY ABS BRAKES ANYMORE AND NO TRAC CONTROL. MY BLINKERS ALSO HAVE BEEN GIVING ME A PROBLEM AS SOMETIMES THEY WORK AND OTHER TIMES THEY DON'T. MOST OF THE TIME I CAN GET THEM TO WORK IF I PUT MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON FOR A FEW MINS. BUT I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO. I HAVE BEEN A GM PERSON ALL MY LIFE AS MY DAD HAS WORKED FOR GM FOR 35 SOMETHING YRS. BUT THEY NEED TO FIXS THESE PROBLEMS AS IT IS UNSAFE FOR ME, MY CHILDREN, MY HUSBAND OR WHOEVER ELSE MAYBE IN THE CAR AND THE OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD ESPECIALLY HERE IN MICHIGAN WITH SNOWY AND ICY ROADS. I ALSO HAVE READ SOME OF THE OTHER COMPLAINTS HERE AND IT SEEMS THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. I WAS ALSO TOLD TODAY WHILE GETTING MY OIL CHANGE DONE THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE DEXCOOL IN THIS CAR TOO. I DID LOOK AROUND ON THE NET AND NOTICE THAT THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE NOT HAD THIS PROBLEM YET AS I ONLY HAVE 50,000 MILES ON MY CAR BUT SOME OF THE SIGNS THAT PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT I HAVE NOTICE SO IT WILL GO INTO A DEALER TO HAVE IT CHECKED AND I WILL BE KEEPING MY INVOICES AS I HOPE GM DOES THE RIGHT THING AND TAKES CARE OF THIS PROBLEM TO. *NM

I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN NOVEMBER 2003, IN APRIL OF 2004 I STARTED TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKE MAKING NOISES. THE CAR WENT INTO THE SHOP AND THEY REPLACED THE DRIVER SIDE CALIPER AND REPLACED FRONT BRAKE PADS. IN JUNE OF 2004 THE CAR WENT BACK IN FOR THE SAME BRAKE NOISE THE SHOP RESURFACED MY ROTORS AND REPLACED A MISSING BRAKE CLIP. IN JULY THE CAR WENT BACK INTO THE SHOP FOR THE SAME BRAKE NOISE AGAIN, THE SHOP REPLACES THE BRAKE PADS AGAIN AND RESURFACED THE ROTORS AGAIN. IT IS NOW OCTOBER AND THE NOISE IS STILL THERE! IN JULY 2004 THE CAR WENT BACK INTO THE SHOP FOR A KNOCKING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT END. THE STRUT MOUNTS WERE REPLACED. AGAIN IN JULY THE CAR WENT BACK IN FOR THE SAME FRONT END NOISE. THE SHOP REPLACED THE STEERING RACK WHICH DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM SO THEY PUT THE OLD ONE BACK IN. THEY THEN REPLACED THE RIGHT FRONT STRUT AND LOWER CONTROL ARM. THE NOISE WAS NOT FIXED. IN OCTOBER THEY REPLACED THE STABILIZER SHAFT ISOLATORS AND ALSO REPLACED THE TWO FRONT TIRES DUE TO A BULLETIN. ALSO IN OCTOBER THEY LUBED ALL FRONT END PARTS.
