Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Abs light continues to come on first couple times dealer could not duplicate the problem. finally light came on as i was leaving i called the dealer and told them i was coming right then before i shut my car off again for them to put it on the computer. put car on comp, and got to codes both were something about a pump relay motor. was fixed and then about 3 weeks later scheduled 3 rd appt for shaking problem and oh the abs light came on again. 1 st appt for shaking said rotors needed turned with 17000 miles told them i was not paying for it called gm 800 number told me i lived in a hilly area round flat area. took it to another dealer and they turned them under warranty. 4000 miles later took it back for steering wheel shaking on tuesday. wednesday they called to tell me i needed 4 new tires, new pads, oh and new rotors, not under my warranty wrong again i will not pay for all of these new at 21000 miles crazy. today friday i called to check on my car and was informed that there 30 year technician and service manager have been on the phone with tech support for two days and they told them they were on their own. if these mechanics have to use a phone to get information about a car they are either not a very good mechanic or maybe we are relying to much on computers to run our cars. *jb
