Fuel system recall, strong gas smell inside car exterior lighting recall, hard to see while driving car at night eletrical sytem ignition recall power cuts on and off

- Indianapolis, IN, USA

Every year that we fix the intake valve on the car not even a month later the check engine light will come back on and it will be the same intake valve. This clogs all the valves in the system causing the car to sometimes it's slow or cut off. Car will not pass emissions even after you fix this issue. I have contacted GM and notified them of this issue and they state that it's not an issue. Also the blinkers will stop working you have to hit the hazardous blinkers for the blinkers to start working again this could cause a rear-end accident I also told the manufacturer about this issue and they are not wanting to fix it.

Turn signals work intermittently, sometimes can press hazard button to activate turn signal for a moment. Power windows quit working all together at once with no warning. Headlight adjusters broke off (crumbled into pieces), can no longer adjust headlights which causes a danger with reduced visibility at night partnered with the intermittent turn signals this causes quite the hazard.

My concern is about my future safety in my Pontiac Grand Am. Since these recalls have been going out I have checked to see if this car will be on the list. I have had to replace my ignition three times last replacement was in 2011, I was lucky that when the replacements took place my car had failed to start and I wasn't driving, however in Jan of 2014 when driving during a snow storm trying to get home, my car hit an ice patch and slide into a guard rail. The impact was so hard that it damaged and bent my left side bumper, breaking the headlight to pieces. To replace the headlight the bumper required to be pulled out and straighten. My air bag did not deploy on impact, even though I hit my head on the headliner, and there was major damage to the car. I live in the mountains of va, how fast was the car going, I am not sure but I can guess impact was about 20/25 mph. Even though the police did come (only because they witness the incident) no police report was filed, I have been looking for this car to be recalled and sure enough its on the list as of July 3 2014. I have not received a letter on the recall, nor does it show up on the cars VIN. The roads in my location are mountain roads with curve after curve and up and downs, although the speed limits are reduced in order to drive safely, my worry is that if I lose control of my car because the electrical system, I will be going down the side of some mountain. I called my local dealer for help, and was told because the recall was not on the VIN# they will not help me. I already know my air bags do not work, I already know I have had ignition problems, so if the ignition stops working, this is an accident waiting to happen. I don't understand if this car make and model is on the NHTSA list why can't I get it fixed?

My vehicle's turn signals quit working properly last year, sometimes they would work, sometimes not, I spent $200 out of pocket to fix the issue, there is now a ticking noise in the same area and I'm reading online there should be a recall because 100's are having the same issue. The ticking noise makes my car not only unbearable to drive/ ride in but makes me uncertain whether my turn signal is on or not. I'm constantly distracted by driving to check my turn signals and this is a safety issue. GM's website was not helpful.

There is an intermittent click from the turn signal, even when I am not operating the turn signal. It may click many times in a row, especially right after I have used the turn signal to either direction. The turn signal light is not flashing nor is the indicator flashing. However the signal indicator noise just continues. The problem is becoming worse with time.

My 2004 Pontiac Grand Am makes a constant clicking noise like the turn signal is on, but they are not. The noise varies from a very slow speed to really fast and just starts and stops at random.

- Aylmer, 00, USA

2004 Pontiac Grand Am with approximately 65,000 miles. Clicking sound normally associated with directional/turn signal is being heard, even when directional is not in use. Sometimes the clicking is activated by moving or turning the steering wheel. The clicking is not constant or consistent, but it does occur every time the directional signal is used. The sound appears to come from the dashboard area (near the radio and hazard light button). The dealership is aware of the issue and has diagnosed it as a faulty/dirty multifunction switch, which he says he replaces frequently. If this is a known issue, I believe General Motors (Pontiac) should address the issue before it turns more serious.
