My vehicle has had the front brakes replaced twice in the 30,000 miles that I have put on the car. Under hard breaking the vibration and pulsating is so unnerving that I wonder if the car is going to fly off the chasis. I know numerous people on the GTO websites that have had similar problems.

My car has had numerous electrical problems which have been reported to the manufacturer. My main concern is an issue with the traction control/ABS that causes the car to show an error light and disable both the traction and ABS systems. The car has been to 2 Pontiac dealerships regarding the issue, it has been looked at 4 or 5 times, and there still has been no resolution. The manufacturer is refusing to buy the car back despite the failure of a touted safety system. The error occurs nearly every time I drive the vehicle, so the "number of failures" count is an estimate.
