On 01/19/2018 I purchased 03, Grand Am GT.the same day the car cut off in the middle of an intersection.it was towed to my home then back to where I purchased it I was advised that it needed coil pack, alternator, .these repairs where made by me out of pocket.on 03/09/18the car over heated and again had to be towed home then to a shop where I paid to have a water pump put on again out of pocket.after having these parts put on the car would not start.I was informed that it may be the fuel pump.I then paid out of pocket to have a fuel pump put on.it still would not start.on 03/20/18 I contacted GM and was advised that there was infact a recall about all of the issue's I am having with this car.I was given an apt for 03/22/18 to be brought into the GM dealership.upon my arrival I was advised that these recalls had been preform ed on (11/1/02 (jcn 25863)and again on 12/3/14 (025777).I was the advised that I would be charged $111 dollars just for diagnosis. When I contacted GM they failed to inform me of any of this information.I found it to be a waste of my time as well as the GM dealership.had they informed me of a fee I would not have taken it in on that day as I did not have the funds to pay for the what needed done. I was given a ticket number(8-4018839531) and advised that someone would be in contact.

I had 2 kids in the car, the accelerator pedal stuck, car kept speeding up.. I was using both feet on brake & er brake as well!! I was swerving in & out of traffic, running red lights & praying for our lives, we got up to 85 miles per hour in a 35mph zone!! the car was revving out of control & black smoke was coming out from under the hood! I managed to slam it into park & we all jumped out & ran, very frightening & almost ended in a collision. The intake manifold gasket cracked at 1yr old and 10,000 miles, the tires needed resealing at 5000 miles. Ridiculous!!

Coolant leaked into engine caused problems, wouldn't start half the time, couldn't fill up without gas pump cutting off constantly (took 20 minutes to fill up). Took car to dealer and other shops spent tons of money problem not solved. Got so feed up with this car I pulled the tags and bought a Honda. It is really unfair how the manufacturer of this car was allowed to get away with putting out such an inferior product. There should have been a major recall on any number of these problems. I was never notified of any recalls or the class action law suit.
