I had to replace the window motor on the driver side and the window motor and regulator on the passenger side. Everyone i have encountered with my generation firebird has had this problem. The day the passenger side went out it was 100 degrees and later raining, thus the window was down and not protecting the occupants from the elements of the weather. *tr

I have a 2000 pontiac firebird. At least once a month i have to change either a parking light or a fog light because it has burnt out. One of my fog lights is completely ruined and i have to purchase a whole new piece, because it was melted. I have noticed when passing other cars like mine, 9 times out of 10 they have a light out in the front. Thank you. *jb

The accelerator pedal would sticks intermittently in severe cold weather while driving. This condition causes the vehicle to accelerate when applying the accelerator pedal harder. The vehicle was taken to the dealer on several occasions. The dealer is unable to duplicate the problem. *nm

I have had several defects on my car and i have had it just over 4 years and about 62,000 miles. 1.) the metal at the end of the driver's sunvisor metal shaft sheared and would no long hold assembly together. Almost caused car wreck and i was blinded by the sunlight coming around the corner. Reached up to pull down the visor and it fell into my lap. Car's age ~ 3 yrs old. A couple of months later the passenger sunvisor did the same. Dealership would do nothing but charge &80 for one new visor. 2. During vehicle warranty i had to take my car in repeatedly for a headlight that would not operate. Still experiencing intermitten operations. 3. During vehivle warranty had to have the alternator replaced for the "loss of power" complant many have experienced. Seemed to fix the issue. 4. When the car was less than 3 years old but out of warranty i had the plastic piece that is on the seat belt buckle that sinches the seat belt break off. I can no longer sinch my seatbelt to a safe postion. I addressed with gm after dealership told me that they could order a new seatbelt. Gm does not consider this a safety issue. I don't feel safe in the vehicle. 5. First of the latest issues at 62,000 miles radio has stopped operating in the cd player mode. 6. Second one is that the clutch (manual transmission) is going out which is causing the ar to "slip/jump" while drivign down the highway. Estimated cost to repair is ~$650.*ak
