I witnessed a truck driver recording videos while operating a tractor trailor, swerving lanes and seemed to be driving faster than an average tractor trailor. Posted videos on social media. Same person also operates there personal vehicle the same way and participates in local street races. This person was released from a different trucking company due to the same actions and still continues to drive unsafely. According to the maryland commercial driving rules, speeding excessively, involving any speed of 15 MPH or more above the posted speed limit, driving recklessly, as defined by maryland law, including but, not limited to, offenses of driving a motor vehicle in willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property, making improper or erratic traffic lane changes are all disqualification for serious traffic violations. Although this person was never reported to proper authorities they have also operated vehicles while under the influence of a controlled substance and had an alcohol concentration of 0.04 or greater while operating a cmv. This concerns me because I am a driver and 1 out of every 4 car accidents in the united states is caused by texting and driving. If texting while driving is 6x more likely to cause an accident than driving drunk and answering a text takes away your attention for about five seconds, traveling at 55 MPH, that's enough time to travel the length of a football field. So I can only imagine the outcome of a distracted truck driver who is also a regular irresponsible driver.

Dashboard is all curled up and melting from the heat even with covering the windshield...now it makes it hard to see with the sun glaring off and right into your eyes. The dashboard appears to have shrunk..nothing fits even around the gauges.

Vehicle won't start. It doesn't happen every day, just when I'm in a hurry or late for appointment. Called dealership. Funny this is, they knew exactly what to do! Turn the key to the on position and wait 10 minutes. It always starts....for now! I don't understand why gm hasn't recalled this. Also, the dash is warped and putting pressure on windshield. I'll never own another gm vehicle.

I have had to replace the windshield wiper transmission on my 2004 pontiac grand am 3 times, if I go thru a car wash it breaks my wipers every time, my drives side wiper would not work at all, finally I had to get it checked out by a mechanic and he told me it would cost 500 plus to fix, thankfully I found a part at a junk yard for 50.00 and replaced it, about a month later I went thru a car wash and it broke again, I think that water pressure shouldn't break it! Also my security light keeps coming on, I have no idea why, it goes off after being on a few mins, also my dash is peeling very bad, which every grand am I have looked at is peeling, it blocks my dash and everything and its putting pressure on my front window! Thanks!

Dash began peeling back at the windshield shortly after new warranty expired. Now it so warped that it is cracking and breaking every vent cover, or it pops them out as you drive! (not fun late at night when you get hit by who knows what in the dark!) my latest concern ~ recently it has separated above the steering column, exposing the wiring (incl. Airbag) inside to dust, moisture, etc. Local dealer says this would have been covered under original warranty, but not under gm extended major guard. :-( they made me a 'deal' at cost to replace it for $700. Gm corporate office declined to help, other than offer $1,000 towards cost of a new vehicle....which at the time was a promotion available to anyone!!

My 2004 grand am I have a clicking noise from the dash area and ever so often smoke from the steering column. Also the driver side weather stripping does not fit right. Weather stripping flew off while driving on the highway.
