Bye Bye Deathtrap!
Saturday, January 06, 2007 9:50 AM
Hey guys, Been a LONG time since I've posted on here...

I bought a 99 Z in October and it has been NOTHING but problems. Bought the car with 111K on it and in 4000 miles the following happened:
Catalytic Convertor Died
Horn Died
Interior lights started acting REALLY wierd and shutting off randomly at night
Nice wind HOWL on both doors at anything more than 45mph
Wheel SHEARED 4 lugs off on the highway


So I decided to cut my losses and trade it in, and here's what I got







2005 Sunfire, 16013 mi, Power Locks, Windows, Sunroof, MP3 CD Player, Keyless, and 20,000 miles on the factory warranty

Needless to say, it's a VERY nice upgrade from the Z and her problems....Any Ideas on names?


Jay

Don't hate the car, hate the previous owner.

Catalytic Converter Died......Mileage related
Horn Died....No idea
Interior lights started acting REALLY weird and shutting off randomly at night....There is one recall and TSB for this.
Nice wind HOWL on both doors at anything more than 45mph...need to replace door hinges
Wheel SHEARED 4 lugs off on the highway....improper tighten or lack there of.

No, I hate the "Buy Here Pay Here" Lot guy, who should have had the car looked over in the first place, so I left him and don't have to deal with him anymore

You really need to find some stock tail lights.
