 I have a 1995 black lumina. the clear coat and the paint is peeling off. it has ran hot ever since i bought it. i have had the thermostat changed and radiator flushed.i have to keep the heat on low even in the summer to keep it from over heating! the brakes need adjusted or replaced on a continues basis. i bought the car used,off a car lot, it was three to four yrs old and right after i bought it was discovered it had a main seal oil leak that would cost near a grand to fix!! the transmission winds loudly and "jumps" even though the trans fluid is checking out fine. egr solenoid went out on my car in 2001!! why does this part cost a fortune and was told it would mess up my emission controls if not fixed? just to make my service engine light stay off!!

 The rear brake lights at the tail light section work only occasionally. they will sometimes work after quickly flipping on both directionals. the brake light in the rear window always functions properly. fuses and bulbs are not the problem. since this problem was noticed by me i have observed other luminas which appear to have the same problem. i would appreciate your looking into this as my mechanic tells me this can be a tricky and expensive problem to diagnose let alone repair. also, is there any way of finding out if i should have been notified of the ball joint problem which was listed at the top of the recall form on your page ? my vehicle was manufactured in that time frame. thank you.
