“I have a 2000 chevy Monte Carlo with 56,000 miles on it. It has been nothing but trouble. Have had alot of repairs on it. Now it has a popping noise in the steering column, and loud front end noise. I was told the steering column problem had a recall on it,because one of my friends chevy impala had the same problem and theirs was fixed under recall. I contacted Chevrolet, they said there was no recall on my Monte Carlo. …”
NHTSA complaint #10273101, filed 2009-06, 1,200 miles“I just purchased this vehicle. The car is in great condition. However, for a vehicle with low miles, these problems should not be an issue. Abs braking system problems; suspension problems; noise in the tires. Abs light comes on and ABS pump is making a humming sound; suspension, I have popping sounds when turning at slow speeds; loud humming sound coming from rear tires (I have read about the caliper issues with this model vehicle) I have yet to take and address the caliper problem but, my guess is that the brake calipers will need to be replaced. …”
NHTSA complaint #10498209, filed 2013-02, 98,000 miles“I too, like all the others have experienced major front end problems with this car. It's always vibrated and I've always heard noises. The dealer did try to rectify this situation by replacing my rack and pinion and replacing my tie rod ends, because both of my front tires were about to fall off. I've extremely scared to put my children in this car, but have no choice. Now, as of today my emergency brake light and trac off light stay on constantly. So there is just one more problem to add to the list of things that have gone wrong with only 48,000 miles. …”
NHTSA complaint #10002852, filed 2003-01, 40,000 miles“The axle broke while driving at 70 MPH. Driver was not able to control the vehicle . Vehicle was towed to the dealer for analysis, and mechanic replaced a main bolt attachment to the suspension because it sheared off.”
NHTSA complaint #10046429, filed 2003-11, 65,000 miles“There is a poping noice in the front end. Can also feel it through the steering wheel. Have taken it several places to find the problem but no one can find it.”
