1 Body problem

Failure Date: 07/01/2016

I have had a 2000 Chevrolet Prizm and now someone threatened my life to force me to buy a 2001 Chevrolet Prizm. The windows of these cars fog up too severe to drive in minor or major rain and freezing rain. When it rains we have to pull over to the side of the road on highways and in cities and towns and wait for it to stop raining for the car to be safe to drive. Most all other cars have windows that are safe to dive with but these cars are not safe for driving in the rain.

2 Body problem

Failure Date: 05/16/2005

I had a 180 degree turn accident caused on the morning of 5/16/05 at I-96 east, livonia mi with my chevy Prizm that had all the four tiers replaced on 11/04. One of the bf goodrich tiers (rear) was the cause of the accident. The relatively new tier (had only 9,000 miles on it) kind of has burst into two or more pieces and had made me slid from one lane to another, hitting the median and turned 180. The rear of the car is greatly damaged. The car was towed and taken to the sam's club where the tier was replaced. We have filed complaints with bf good rich, and gm. The rear tier seems to be the leading cause for the failure. We still have not fixed the car except the rear tier. We have the old tier with us.
