WHERE DO I EVEN START WITH THE 1999 CATERA THAT I JUST HAD TO TRADE IN THIS WEEKEND DUE TO SO MANY THINGS THAT HAD WENT WRONG WITH THAT CAR. 1ST, WHEN FILLING THE CAR UP WITH GAS, IT WOULD NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF. DEALER FIXED 1ST TIME, BUT MESSED UP THE GAS GAUGE. IT STARTED DOING IT AGAIN 1 MONTH LATER. YOU COULD NOT KEEP A SET OF TIRES ON THE CAR NO MATTER HOW MANY ALIGNMENTS THAT YOU HAD PERFORMED. THE SUNROOF WOULD NOT OPEN MOST OF THE TIME WHEN YOU TRIED TO OPEN IT, BUT IT WOULD OPEN ON IT'S OWN AT RANDOM. DEALER REPLACED THE SWITCH TWICE, PROBLEM STILL OCCURRED. THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AT 60K AND HAD TO BE REPLACED DUE TO THE *S* LIGHT FLASHING. THE FIRST RADIO WOULD NOT PICK UP ANY STATIONS, THE RADIO WAS REPLACED BY THE DEALER. 4K LATER AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. AT 65K, THE CD PLAYER WOULD NO LONGER WORK. THE LOCKS WOULD NOT COMPLETELY LOCK WITH THE REMOTE OR WHEN THE CAR WAS PUT INTO GEAR. AT 90K, THE DRIVERS SIDE HEATED SEAT LITERALLY CAUGHT FIRE WHILE DRIVING AND BURNED A 4" DIAMETER HOLE IN FRONT BOLSTER. GM STATED THAT THIS IS "NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR, BUT NORMALLY, THEY JUST STOP FUNCTIONING. THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR THE REPAIRS OF THE SEAT AT ALL. ALMOST CAUSED ME TO WRECK THE CAR AS THE ACBIN QUICKLY FILLED WITH SMOKE AND AS SOON AS I CRACKED THE WINDOW, THE FIRE STARTED TO GET LARGER AS IT GOT MORE AIR TO FEED IT. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT SHOWED CYLINDER MISFIRES AND I WAS TOLD THAT IT WOULD BE $2500 TO $5000 TO REPAIR IT. I TRADED THE CAR ON
