4 years after I bought my Grand Am 2000 I was in an accident and my air bags did not deploy I didnt know there was a recall for that, any way recently I had to replace the switch ignition because the key got stuck and couldnt get oit out. Then just last week the car would not start and it was the faulty ignition switch I paid $380 out of NY pocket and I want a refund because there is a recall 140350 for the ignition switch

My turn signals are no longer working. I found that if I pushed the hazards button, it would make the turn signals work. His worked for a while (about 6 months) but now I do not have functioning hazard lights or turn signals. This happened while I was driving posing a very dangerous situation.

This question should be "tell us what happens". my directional levers and lighting to signal right or left does not work most of the time. The light goes on but it doesn't blink at all. I would say this is a problem 97% of the time. This may also happen with my hazard lights. I understand under NHTSA campaign number that she was a recall in 2003, but my car was never recalled under my VIN number. This happens either when the car is in motion or when it is still. It happens on city streets, and highways and even in my driveway. This is definitely a safety issue. I have also had the flashers cleaned and the flasher relay replaced by my mechanic.

- Shawnee, OK, USA

I have a 2000 Pontiac Grand Am and while driving at any speed I found the use of the turn signal either left or right were intermittent. I took the car to a dealer and had the problem verified by a mechanic at the dealership. I was informed that even though there had been a recall on this problem for my make and model that my VIN was not included. I contacted GM and was told that there was in fact a recall with this problem, reference GM recall#03043 and NHTSA campaign #03V327000 but my VIN was not on the list and there was nothing else they would do for me. The dealer quoted me a total cost of repair of $120 even thought the same defect was repaired on similar cars same make and model and year as mine and cost was picked up by GM. This is a safety feature defect with the hazard warning switches.

- Tulsa, OK, USA

See below. I am having the same problem with signals working intermittently. I would hit the hazard switch or hit on the console for them to work, but only for a short period. I took vehicle for inspection and was rejected. I called Pontiac to see about recall for this. My VIN did not match recall. Was told if I had it inspected at GM dealership that the price to fix it may have been reduced. Took it to where I had it inspected and it was fixed for $80. Pontiac did not offer me any at cost or reduced price to have it fixed if I took it to GM because I did not have it inspected there originally. They gave me a ref # in case there was a reimbursement of the service and repair at a later date.

- Vineland, NJ, USA

I am having the same problem as reported to the NHTSA defect investigation # EA02037 and NHTSA recall # 03V327. It just started this year and I called the dealer I bought the car (new) from and I was told it is not part of the recall because the VIN # is not included in the report.

- Stony Point, NY, USA

The turn signal switch makes a clicking noise even after the turn signal is turned off. I have to "lightly" hold down the switch to signal a turn. If I turn the signal on completely, the clicking noise will come on. I find myself not using my turn signal much because I am afraid the clicking noise will come on all of the time. This could create a problem for someone behind me if I am not signaling. I realize there is a recall for certain Grand Am's. even though mine is a 2000, Pontiac says my vehicle is not one of the recall vehicles. Yet, I experience the same problem that appear to be for the recall.

- Huntington, IN, USA

I have 2 problems. First is my hazard/turn signal switch, which causes my turn signals to work intermittently. I see on your website and various others that this problem involves a recall by GM, however when I spoke to them they tell me that it hasn't been recalled. There was nothing that led up to it, just started being a problem one day. I have not had it fixed yet, as I feel like it's GM's responsibility to fix it. My second problem is my manifold intake, which is causing my car to leak coolant into the engine and making my car overheat. I have seen that this has been a problem for thousands of owners and GM is doing nothing about it. I have spoken to them and they refuse to fix it. Their dealership wants to charge me $1400 to fix it, even though it is obviously a problem. Even though I had already had the problem diagnosed through another repair shop, they said they would not even consider fixing it unless I had it diagnosed through their dealer, which cost me $105 that I don't have. I am disabled, and on state disability and I feel like they completely scammed me, not to mention that now I have an inoperable car and have no way of getting to the doctor. Nothing led up to the problem, it leaks coolant constantly and now overheats all of the time, making it undrivable.
