Lens cover, was indicated not to be covered by the warranty when it was an obvious design defect, in that the glue chosen to attach the lens cover was not able to handle the heat of the halogen light bulb and/or solar heat combined; the glue became brittle and cracked. Both facia on the front door panels have come loose on the end. When the door is opened this facia bends the quarter panel it hits and affects the ability of the car door to be opened. I have had this problem on both front doors and newer models have been altered to allow for a clearance between these parts that is not on the 1997 Grand Prix.

This car has a significant # of safety problems that the dealer/manufacturer have refused to address w/out significant cost to consumer. Until I sustain a significant injury &/or injure someone due to these product defects, I can not afford a legal challenge to have GM address problems, nor can I bear cost. My car is available as a sample of their junk! (signed;claims adjuster). No safety defect listed in summary.

Headlight lens on both sides came off within 1 week of each other. One would be unfortunate. Two is an inherent defect. The power windows on both sides have had multiple components changed under warranty and another repair was corrected just after the warranty expired. Again both windows have problems that were supposed to be corrected but the problem returned. Two windows, same problem, inherent defect!!
