| Are you kidding me!my windows on my 2003 pontiac grand am gt have quit working. has happened to 3 of my windows, driver side front and both back windows, yesterday when it was pouring down rain basically sideways my window which i have had to rig to stay up with tape still came down which allowed powerful wind and rain to start pouring into my car as i tried to pull over to push it back up another one fell, lol. my car was soaking i was soaking and i almost got into a wreck because of it, not a safety issue my ass! a different time my girlfriend had to undo her seat belt and crawl from the front seat into the back to hold a window up during a rain storm, what the hell gives gm? i would love to get this fixed but not only can i not afford it but i have seen the plastic piece in my window and it has pieces broken off in 7 different places. this is insane! gm is raping the american people, no wonder people by foreign cars, i have always been a pontiac man but i may be looking into a honda or something soon! | |||

| I have a 2003 pontiac grand am v6. i bought it in 2005 from the dealer. since then i've had to replace my ignition 3 times. the alarm system would go off in the middle of the night. the security signal would blink and my car would not and will not today for the 3rd time start. it has cut off on me on the freeway, i would pull over and the car start up after about 10 min. the sar not starting has been going on since i bought it most times it starts, but when it doesn't the tellme i have to replace my ignition. im beginning to think its much more than that. *tr | |||

| I have the passlock security system on my 2003 pontiac grand am. i was parked at a store. i was sitting in the car with the key on in the ignition. my wife lifted the handle on the passenger's door. the door was locked, but my door was open. the car was running and after she lifted the door handle the ignition shut off. i tried restarting the car. the car was cranking but would not start. the security light was flashing on the dash board. i had to have the car towed. i wasn't able to restart the engine. the key was bought used in october 2006. the car only has 25,000 miles on the engine and is up to date on maintenance schedules. i have read on several internet sites that the passlock system has a history of cutting off the engine even with the car's key. *tr | |||
