| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My driver side window will not go up or down, it just failed completely. the dealership advised that the wires inside the door are completely broken. the system needed to fix it is back ordered so i have to wait to have it replaced. four days later my brakes became the new problem. on my way to school, i was approaching a stop light and began applying the brakes but the car would not stop. it made a vibrating noise and thrust itself forward. it wasn't a grinding sound but clicks and vibration. luckily there wasn't anyone in front of me or coming from the opposite direction. i thought it something i did and continued driving carefully. at the next stop i was unable to slow down to make a right hand turn. i passed the turn completely before the car slowed enough to turn. this scared me so i pulled over and called for help. after taking a test drive with a car repair person who informed me it wasn't my brake pads or rotors. he said it sounded like my anti-lock system failing and i should call the dealership. i called the dealership and they said to bring it in. gm roadside assistance towed it. that was saturday and today is monday, the dealership worker told me she drove it and she has been driving for 12 years and she didn't have a problem with the brakes but they will put it on the electric diagnostic machine to double check it. i am afraid to drive with my children. the fact that the car may not stop or the brakes may fail at any time is scary. i should hear from them by this evening. *jb |
