Grand Am

We have had continuous problems with this vehicle. The door panels peeled off the two rear doors and were replaced, the tire pressure light continually comes on, the hinges on the driver door keep getting stuck and sometimes the door won't even shut, it will not shift into first gear, and now the rotors/brakes are out. It is currently in the shop again. We take it monthly if not more often. This is certainly a burden. The service department is not informative. They don't explain why these things happen nor do they tell us if they have ordered parts for the vehicle. We get cards in the mail when the parts are in and we must schedule yet another trip to the dealership. The vehicle is completely unreliable. The brake issue is extremely scary when we only have 16,000 miles on the vehicle. Never before have I owned such a lemon. This is our second brand new car and the other has had zero problems and it is a 1998 Malibu with almost 60,000 miles. This makes no sense and Pontiac is doing little to resolve these issues.
