problem #2

Monte Carlo LS 3.9L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,246 miles

Started with radio not working every once in awhile, than quit all together. No back up camera, No cd player, No display at all. Took vehicle to dealer and was told that I didn't have that premium car care package and I was out of luck and a new radio would cost me $2,400 dollars, This should have been a recall issue do to the back up camera not working on the radio making the rear of the vehicle a BIG blind spot, I found a company that rebuilds these sorry radios and it cost me $410.00 and $20.00 installation fee.

Monte Carlo LT 3.2L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 0 miles

When I purchased the car, the CD Player did not work. Since that time I have had problems with every replacement Radio/CD Player. I am on my 4th Radio/CD Player and every so often this loud noise comes of of the Radio. Between this problem and the Heater problems, my new (now 3 1/2 yrs old) car has been in the shop more than any I have every owned. No wonder GM is having financial trouble. I purchased a new car so that I didn't have the inconvenience of constant repairs. Yet this car is constantly in the shop. I am disgusted by their lack of integrity and workmanship.
