What 1992 Pontiac Grand Prix owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
1) upon starting the car, smoke emitted from the hazard light switch. 2) as I was accelerating from a stoplight I heard a loud thud and the car jumped, thinking someone had hit me, I kept driving to pull over and noticed that I had no steering. By the time I had stopped I was in oncoming traffic and narrowly missed several cars. The motor had separated rom the a frame. The mechanic said it looked like the manufacturer had forgotten a bolt and the other one got stressed. 3) the brakes fail or are slow at stopping quite often even when pads are replaced. 4) car suddenly accelerates. This has caused many near misses. This happens at any speed and also happens while using cruise control. This happens almost daily.

Ea94041, steel on rear brakes corroded, causing rear brakes to freeze. Resulted in extended stopping distance which may have caused a crash. Gm has offered to pay a small amount for the repairs required to fix their faulty brake system. Owner has not yet fixed their vehicle because of the cost. *ak
Rear brakes have no stopping power. Calipers seize to the point where they do not work at all. New calipers were put on, and within 8 months they also seized. Every eight to twelve months calipers need changing. Mechanics states that this is a common problem. Please provide any further details.
Discovered seized cylinders while proceeding to change both rear brake pads, as they had begun to squeal, indicating time to change. As a result, could neither put old,nor new pads back on car, therefore have no brakes, and car is not driveable until work is performed. "unsafe to operate car"
Rear brake pads and calipers failure.
