Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“My door is falling off from the frame of the car. No accidents to the car. The window has had numerous problems. The GM body shop said they just had this same problem last week with another firebird. Gm has offered to pay 15% of the $982.00. I have found out that the doors are glued on all firebirds. I feel this is a major defect from the manufacturer. The problem has not been fixed.”
