Pontiac Sunfire 2000 will be driving the cars, it stalls out, then restarts without turning the key. Have talked to the Pontiac dealer. Bringing it in on 12/20/2004 for further diagnostics from what I have read this is a common problem related to a collapsed fuel strainer thatwill caost in the area of $200 to repair. ODI action no. PE02-66 was filed in 2002, needs to be pushed forward to hold Pontiac accountable for their poor design. See (www.carsurvey.org/viewcomments_review_42762.html) for further confirmation.

This is just a few of the many problems experienced from time of purchase. Any time I'd turn on air/heat/defrost entire car would shake violently enough to make it difficult to drive. Dealership found both problems and so far are corrected. Had to bring out another model identical to my to find the all the problems. Also had left rear speaker replaced twice, got stranded due to "generator low voltage" light not coming on when my battery cable bolt was stripped out. Had to have brakes reburnished at 913 miles due to squealing and am currently taking it in for problems with the anti-lock brakes being engaged at all times.

Vehicle stalls at any speed, and on daily basis. Taken vehicle numerous times to dealer, cannot remedy situation. Consumer states that prior to vehicle stalling, check engine light used to illuminate and then the air conditioner would quit, however now, vehicle will stall without any warning, this happens several times a day where it has almost caused several serious accidents.

A few days after we purchased this vehicle we noticed that the engine made a "grinding, rough" noise when put into park. There is also a vibration that can be felt inside of the car. The first time the dealer looked at the car he said it had a "miss" and he pulled up information in his computer and noted that we were the 16th people to complain of the same problem. He pulled a car off the lot and compared it to ours. It did the same thing. He said there was nothing he could do to correct the problem. The second time we took it in for this problem they hooked the car up to the computer and said it was within specs. Again, we were told nothing could be done to correct this problem. We purchased a new vehicle in hopes that there would be little problems with it. This problem with the engine will run into bigger, expensive problems. Please help!
