CAR IS WHITE. PAINT IS PEELING OFF HOOD OF CAR FOR NO APPARENT REASON. STEEL IS EXPOSED AND STARTING TO RUST. THE ENTIRE CAR NEEDS REPAINTED BECAUSE THE PROBLEM IS ALSO HAPPENING ON OTHER PARTS OF THE VEHICLE. SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT.*AK 1993 PONTIAC GRAND AM

I JUST NEED TO KNOW IF THIS PART HAS BEEN RECALLED OR NOT. I CAN'T FIND A USED DOOR "CRANK SHAFT" BECAUSE THIS IS A PROBLEM FOR A LOT OF THESES GRAND AM
THE RIGHT SIDE ELECTRICAL DOOR LOCK DOESN'T WORK AT ANY TIME. THE DOOR LOCK ORIGINALLY WORKED WHEN I GOT THE CAR, HOWEVER, TORE UP A FEW MONTHS LATER. I DID NOT BUY THE CAR NEW SO I DIDN'T KNOW IF THE MANUFACTURERWAS LIABLE, BUT IT IS WORTH CHECKING INTO. I KNOW OF SEVERAL OTHER GRAND AM OWNERS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS PLUS INGINITION WHICH I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCE YET. I WAS JUST CONCERNED WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN NEXT THAT COULD BE MORE SERIOUS THAN WHAT WE ARE DEALING WITH. I DIDN'T THINK MUCH ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM UNTIL CONFIRING WITH OTHERS DEALING WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS. SO I LOOKED TO SEE IF MY VECHICLE AND OTHERS HAD EVER HAD A RECALL AND FOUND THERE WAS A RECALL IN SEPT. 1993. I WOULD LIKE A RESPONSE CONCERNING THESE PROBLEMS AND IF ANYTHING COULD BE DONE ABOUT THEM. OR IF IT IS JUST FOR FIRST TIME OWNERS. SINCERELY, BUFORD MCINTOSH
