Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: It started with a very annoying fast clicking noise. it got worse and worse! then, smoke started coming out of the steering column. i had the hazard switch replaced under the recall. i took it to the dealer today and they told me that it is my multifuction switch, it shorted out the hazard switch, which i already had replaced. now, i am getting charged 315.00 to get it fixed! i have seen many many complaints on many years of the grand am. you would figure that if the company knew about it, then they would take the time and money to correct the problem, the right way. i have told everyone that i know about this, and not to ever buy a pontiac they don't take care of their consumers!! *nm
