Lower intake was just fixed 01/01/2002. Lower intake has to be replaced again 05/05/2003. Lower intake has been changed to be stronger. The lower intake was faulty. I should not be made to pay for it again. The first charge was $1032 and I am again being charged $1306. I should not have to pay again for the same problem. I have exceed the limited warranty of one year or 12,000 miles. The lower intake is designed to last almost the life of the car. The car is a 99 pont Grand Am. I purchased it in June 2000. I had the car 2 years and 8 months and I am still making payments on it. This is unfair that I should have to pay for repairs again. Also I understand that recalls were done for the steering and body structure. I never got any notices about any recalls. If I had not gone to your web site, I would not have known. How do I get my car repaired without charge? also the alternator was replaced 07/02/2002 for $456 and the alternator had to be replaced again 03/17/03 which I was not charged for. I purchased a car with a lot of defects and should not have to pay. I will get rid of this car.

Biggest problem - car is brand new, 2-1/2 weeks old and since about 100 miles, has been jerking off and while driving seeming as though fuel is being shut off and on while driving. Took car to dealer to fix. Told cannot fix and GM does not know what is wrong or how to fix. I was told car drivable and "safe." That depends upon definition of safe. Car is so bad it shuts off the cruse control after only being on 5 seconds. Do not know if this car will stall while driving and could potentially become a safety problem. No one at dealership or GM seems to care about this problem. This is a new car! I really would like your help to make GM accountable for this problem in their new cars! steering - entire sterring column and wheel shakes when speeds of 60+ are reached. Potential safety problem - driver headrest - cannot see blind spot or behind you if you turn to visually look to the left when merging into traffic or backing up.
