“In sept 2011 my 2000 Pontiac gran priz burst into flames under the hood it was parked at farm credit. I only had liability insurance so no claim was filed. I recently received a recall notice for a possible engine fire. I contacted GM and was told nothing could be done because I didn't have the car anymore. Of course I don't have the car it burnt completely up!!!”

“Just a note to let you know our 2000 Pontiac gp gtp caught fire while not running on 06/22/04. I notified Pontiac that night. Our insurance hired a fire investigator. He was met at our house by a GM representative the following week. The fire investigator advised us there had been another he was sent to a couple weeks before ours. Gm finally recalled the car 2 years later in 2006, so I know they knew about this one as well. The informed us to rebuild our home and they were responsible for what insurance did not take care of, which amounted to 133,000. …”

“In late 2007 my husband and I bought tires for my 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix. We purchased p225/60r16 yokohama avid touring. Since our purchase I have had numerous unresolved problems. With less than 30,000 miles on these tires, they have begun to dry rot or crack around the rim. I have tried to contact the sotre where I purchase these tires, they have been of no help. I also have had numerous incidents where the tires fail to hold air. I doubt very seriously my car will ever drive on a set of yokohamas ever again. *ks*”

“First I could not shift out of park. Stepping on the breake should allow the lever on the shift lever to depress allowing me to shift into drive. This was an intermittent problem at first. Next, came the key problem within a week or two. I could not turn the key back to it's home position in order to take it out. After much research I learned that I could stick a pen or other pointed object up under the steering column to realease the key. I also need to depress the shift lock release next to the shift lever in order to get the car out of park. …”
