| Numerous things have gone wrong with my 2001 monte carlo. 5 or 6 times the dealership has repaired the driver side airbag where it continually pops out. i am really concerned when it might explode w/o a crash or if there is a driver side crash if it will come out to protect me. steering and front suspension pops. at 55,117 miles we had the oil changed (which has been done every 3000 miles) or less and on the multi point inspection sheet, it listed several things that might need attention soon. they are steering linkage and steering components, cv axle boots or drive shaft and u joints. these things should not be worn out on a car with no more miles than this. my rear window defogger doesn't work. noticed this after one of the airbag repairs. this car has been very well taken care of but still the noises persist and now to be told that these parts might need repair or replacement? we paid a lot of good money for this vehicle (this is a limited edition high sport vehicle) and feel gm should buy it back and reimburse every dime of it due to the poor quality of it or properly repaired or parts replaced at gm expense while providing an equal value vehicle while repair work is done. *tr | |||
