2002 Pontiac Grand Am developed problems with the brakes and the emergency brake equipment. The vehicle stalled as the consumer backed out of the driveway when the vehicle was placed in drive. The emergency brake would hang up. The traction control light stayed on. There was an occasion when the consumer could not get the traction control to re-engage. The dealer claimed to have found nothing. The rotors were replaced along with the emergency brake pads which was stated to be beyond specifications. Three loud bangs had come from the left rear wheel. The consumer experienced numerous electrical problems and oil leaks.
