AC does not work. Freon leaves the system.

Lets talk about an expensive fix. my car smelled of gas. i had to get this fixed. i talked to a service man who said the fix would cost 1500 dollars. i looked for another handyman.

My mother found a truck repairman. I got the part I needed for only 16 bucks. I took this fixing part to the Repair Man.

Repairman was great. He told me it would cost a couple hundred. He got on the phone and talked about the fix. He was lost in a stair. RM got to work.

He was great. RM had to take the whole car apart to replace this 16 dollar part. it took all day but he kept his word and charged me only a couple hundred bucks. I can still remember that stair!!

I love my car to death. ( Just not willing to let GMs crap products kill me) But in the winter time, the heat is terrible. I've had my car bought used for 2 years and in 2011 it started with a smell of gas coming through the vents and in order to get heat I have to rev up my engine in neutral when stopped at a light just to get some heat. It has to be on the highest setting and it is just a pain in the ass to waste gas like that. It is unnecessary. I can not afford to put any more money in such a sh*t made product. GM I hope you burn in hell forever and realize you could endanger the public as this causes many issues, even if you think it doesn't.

When I got the car it worked fine for a few months then BAM, i no longer had the 1 or 2 speed for the fan controls work. 3-5 worked fine but as previously mentioned, when you want a nice cool breeze it is virtuously impossible. After looking into briefly looking into it i had realized the problem. something like that you will have to take into consideration the basic electrical properties, if the fan works on the 3-5 speeds there is most likely nothing wrong with the fan or the blower motor. The next best thing is to look at fuses if those are fine then, follow the next clues. There is a group of wires that run from the blower motor that connect to a resistor which ends up under the glove box. If you replace it yourself (which is the cheapest) then it will be a little challenge getting it out and the part can run from 30-50 bucks. hope this helps in the future.

Well my beef is I have had this car less than 6mths and have already had MAJOR problems with it...not to mention I financed it and still owe a couple grand more than its worth....on top of the fact I don't know how long the car is going to last me!The latest is I couldn't figure out why I had no heat...engine was getting hot but no hot air coming from the vents...found out oil is leaking into my heater coil and will eventually need to replace gaskets at 1200 dollars of which I do not have!Had the heater core flushed for 50 bucks and have plenty of heat for the moment but this is only a temp fix....I love the car,the body style and everything but def would not buy another grand am again!
