Description of the problem	Had lots of problems, a/c compressor failed 3 years ago during warranty, then there was short circuit in steering wheel that was replace, soon after fuel gauge sensor went haywire this required changing the sensor, fuel pump as well as fuel tank ( probably the dealer cheated by doing all this work, filed complaint to both gm and attorney general's office),oxygen sensor went bad, one day all turn signals stated flashing while just parked, replaced sensors and wiring, then again turn signal sensor went bad, soon after starting ignition sensor had to be replaced since starting was hard, then came the electronic key failing that needed both the key & lock replacement,now still at times the key refuses to start the car, started to see radiator leak that is quite mysterious i. E, after a few weeks level goes down but can not find the source, rear window control failed , dash board lights went out that needed removing the entire panel & replacing bulbs, now the big problem of low speed stall on the road i. E. It stalls in slow traffic or while stopped at light or taking slow turn, filing a full report with gm again for recalling all aurora's from road else be responsible for accidents & even deaths, classic example of producing a bad quality high end luxury car. My other 10-15 yrs old cars are running far better than this lemon car.
