“I have a 2001 Monte Carlo and have many issues. 1st I have been having a steering issue since 35,000 miles. I makes constant noise when steering and turning. Had it fixed twice at my expense. Once again started happening. I do not know if this is dangerous. 2nd gas gauge does not work. 3rd the heat/AC intermittent and I noticed when this does not work the panel where it tells you if you are going north, south etc. Doesn't work either. Also the driver side heated seat does not work anymore. Please get back to me.”

Air conditioner has been a constant problem (I was told I needed to park some place else) the manifold gaskets had to be replaced at 48000 miles and now the wiper switch has gone bad. The front end feels real bad, but they claim there is nothing wrong. Just waiting for the front end to fall out from underneath the car on a hot, rainy, july morning. I'm going back to ford. Oh yeah forgot, paint went bad 1 year after I bought it. …”
