| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I had the car into the dealer three times prior to the warranty expiration with complaints about the brakes. my concern was that the brake light (abs) kept coming on and off. finally, the end of august they agreed to replace the rotors if i paid to replace the brake pads. this was done. the next week, i was driving down the highway and the brake light came on again. i immediately picked up the cell phone and called the dealer. i was told that it was probably a computer glitch and to bring it in at my convenience. i scheduled it to go in on friday, three days later. on wednesday night, i was driving, came to a stop sign and had no brakes. a tree stopped me! the dealership and oldsmobile would accept no responsibility, so i paid for the repairs myself. today, after i have had it on the road again for about three months, the abs light came on as soon as i started the car. am i safe in this car???? do i feel safe? no help. *ak |
