2000 Pontiac Sunfire Brakes Problems

“My car was driving perfect until 3 weeks ago, it has since then wont start back up. Thought it was something to do with spark, then tried spark plug wires, new battery, checked alternator and fuses, coils all good. Then I was lead to maybe the gas that was in it. Dropped gas tank, put new fuel filter, checked fuel pump, gas lines, it did stay running one time since but was shaking roughly with a flashing check engine light. Will not run anymore since then. Have not been able to drive my vehicle for 3 weeks now and it is my only car.. …”

“Last year I took my 2000 Pontiac Sunfire to the dealer due to it's leaking break fluid and loss of breaking power. The dealer replaced the break line going to the right rear brake. I was told that the crack in the line was due to oil's and other fluids from driving on the road caused it to corrode and brake. I was charged approx. $250.00 for them to replace it. They said it was not covered under the 30,000 mile warranty. …”

“The consumer applied the brakes and the pedal went to the floor. The vehicle slowed down on its on. The consumer was able to control the vehicle. The driver was able to drive it to dealer. The mechanic informed the driver that the problem could not be duplicate. The engine light appeared on the dashboard and remained. There was leaking boiling under the dash on both sides.”

“Car has had numerous problems since day one. Brakes chatter, overheating, service engine light, cd player and speakers did not work. Now it stalls with no warning at all. Stalls at 70 MPH going down highway. Has stalled while driving 3 or 4 times in the past two days. Checked out at service station on computer, and shows no problems. Have read many complaints here about the exact same problem. Bad fuel pump or something is causing car to stall. Then it takes from 10 to 15 minutes to start again. Some days it just won't start at all. …”

“The brakes have now failed a total of 3 times, 7 days after I has purchased the car the brake computer system went out. I have contacted the dealership and they are not concerned at all. I have complained to the dealership I have taken it to for all the repairs and they tell me they do not find anything and all the documentation I have will not due until it is proven by someone else they have to play by GM rules I was also told. I do not feel safe in this car and as a women feel very frustrated as to waht to do next. Can you help?”
