| First problem was the check engine light came on. called onstar and they said it had something to do with emission. called dealer, they checked it out and said it was a faulty evap solonoid. dealer replaced solonoid on 3-22-2012. while there, they also told me there was a recall on the drivers side airbag. i never recieved any notice about a recall. said they fixed that too. problem # 2- today 4-15, 2012, when i apply the brakes, its making what seems like a rubbing sound !! called onstar again, but they couldnt tell me anything. i will be taking this piece of crap car back to the dealers !! this car is only 4 months old with 2800 miles on it. !! | |||

| I turned on windshield wipers & the engine died. this was the first time it had rained after i bought the car & really did not at this time associate the wipers & the engine dying until later that same day when contacted a friend of mine to drive the car. the dealer contacted gm about the problem but they don't seem to be very concerned about the problem. the dealer replaced the wiper motor but that did not solve the problem. it is a long story & i'm very concerned for the saftey of myself & others. it died the other day in traffic when it started to rain & i turned on the wipers and almost was hit by a truck. please contact me, it would be easier for him to explain in person about the problem. | |||
