DURING TRAFFIC MY 2004 PONTIAC GRAND AM JUST SHUT ITSELF OFF! MOMENTS BEFORE I DID HIT A POTHOLE. SUDDENLY, THE LIGHTS IN DASH ILLUMINATED, BELLS SOUNDED, AND MY KEY INDEPENDENTLY MOVED FROM THE ON POSITION TO OFF. I LOST POWER STEERING, BRAKES. THE CAR SLOWED TO A STOP. I CALLED 911 IN DESPERATE FEAR OF BEING HIT.-CAR WOULDN'T RESTART, KEY WOULDN'T COME OUT OF IGNITION. I BECAME ANGERED AND POUNDED ON THE IGNITION AREA AND NEAR THE RADIO. THE CAR THEN WAS ABLE TO RESPOND AND TURN ON. I LEARNED THAT MY CAR HAD BEEN RECALLED IN JULY, BUT THERE IS NO REMEDY ON HOW TO FIX IT. I WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. MECHANIC, AT DEALER, SAID NO CODES CAME UP TO INDICATE A PROBLEM. HE SAID THOUGH I HAD SOME MILES ON MY CAR, THE CAR WAS IN TERRIFIC CONDITION AND DIDN'T APPEAR TO BE THIS OLD. I TOLD HIM THAT I HAVE BEEN IMPECCABLE WITH MY CAR. THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THEY AREN'T GOING TO DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THERE IS NO REMEDY. HOWEVER, THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID MY CAR IS NOT SAFE. I WAS NEVER SO SCARED IN MY LIFE. ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT WAS MY CHILDREN. MY LIFE WAS ENDANGERED AS THERE WAS NO WAY TO MAKE MY CARE INDICATE THERE WAS A PROBLEM- FLASHERS WEREN'T RESPONDING. ON MAY 23, 2014, I HIT A POT HOLE PRETTY HARD WHILE ENTERING A PARKING LOT (I WAS GOING SLOW), MY CAR SHUT OFF AND ON IN MOMENTS, LOST POWER STEERING MOMENTARILY. THE KEY WAS STUCK BETWEEN ON AND OFF, NOT COMING OUT OF THE IGNITION. I WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER, THEY REPLACED THE IGNITION. ACCORDING TO MY PAPERWORK AND REPAIR BY THE DEALER, GM HAS ADVISED ME THAT MY CAR IN INVOLVED WITH A RECALL AND I SHOULD SEEK REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH I HAD REPAIRED. *TR

I PURCHASED A CAR FROM AN INDIVIDUAL WHO ADVERTISED A CAR FOR SALE BY STATING"AC WORKS HEATER WORKS" UNFORTUNATELY WITHIN 45 MIN AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE I WAS LEFT STRANDED ON SIDE OF THE ROAD IN EXTREMELY HIGH HEAT DUE TO CAR DYING BECAUSE IT OVERHEATED BUT I WASNT AWARE OF IT BECAUSE IT NEVER GOT HOT ON TEMP GAUGE BECAUSE I LATER FOUND OUT THERE WAS NO THERMOSTAT IN THE MOTOR.. I WAS UNABLE TO GET THE SELLER TO ANSWER HER PHONE OR RETURN MY CALLS. THE AC CAN'T WORK WITHOUT A THERMOSTAT AND HEATER NEEDS HEATER CORE IN ORDER TO WORK IN WHICH THE CAR HASN'T ONE. I'M STUCK WITH A VEHICAL THAT I CAN'T DRIVE AND THE SELLER WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEMS CONCERNING THE CAR BUT FAILED TO MENTION ANYTHING WAS WRONG WITH CAR. *TR
