“MY HUSBAND BOUGHT ME A 2001 GRAND AM GT IN OCTOBER 05' @ 80,000 MILES. I HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER WINDOWS IN A YEAR. THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR POPPED AND BLEW OUT THEN ABOUT 2WKS LATER THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW WENT OUT!! MY IGNITION SWITCH DOESN'T WORK, I CAN TAKE MY KEYS OUT OF THE IGNITION WHILE THE CAR IS STILL ON. MY SIGNAL LIGHTS WENT OUT I REPLACED THEM. MY DRIVER SIDE SEAT DOES NOT MANEUVER @ ALL. MY FOG LIGHT IN THE FRONT ON THE LEFT SIDE HAS CAME OFF COMPLETELY WHILE THE CAR WAS STILL PARKED. I HAVE NOTICED OTHER GRAND AMS @ DRIVE THROUGH RESTAURANTS WHO'S WINDOWS DON'T WORK AND YOU HAVE TO GET YOU'RE FOOD THROUGH THE DOOR!! THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AND SHOULD BE FIXED FREE OF CHARGE TO ALL OWNERS ASAP!! ITS A SHAME WE PAY SO MUCH FOR SO LITTLE!! *TR”

“TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 PONTIAC GRAND AM. INTERMITTENTLY, THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT WINDOW WOULD NOT OPERATE AT ALL. THE MASTER SWITCH ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACED. APPROXIMATELY 8 MONTHS LATER, THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH, IN WHICH THE IMPACT WAS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. THREE MONTHS LATER, THE WINDOW BEGAN TO WORK AGAIN INTERMITTENTLY, BUT THEN STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,428.”

“BETWEEN MARCH 2007 AND NOVEMBER 2007 THE REGULATORS ON ALL 4 ELECTRIC WINDOWS HAVE HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE CAR HAD APPROXIMATELY 30,000 MILES ON IT WHEN THE FIRST WINDOW FAILED AND CURRENTLY HAS 42,000 MILES. I HAVE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE A REGULATOR IN ANY OTHER VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED AND THESE ARE VEHICLES I HAVE OWNED AS BRAND NEW VEHICLES WITH UP TO 150,000 MILES ON THEM BEFORE THEY WERE SOLD. *TR”
