I really like the car - if I can keep it out of the shop.

I always buy American and often Chevy. But this car has left a bad taste in my mouth and GM doesn't care. I'm not saying this is the case with all GM owners. But I read and I hear that I am not alone with these issues.
Seadog,

I experienced a similar problem on a 2000 Pontiac. Replaced rotars and the same thing happened. Replaced them again, same story. I finally found that you need to "upgrade" to a different rotar. It is made for police cars and they cost a little more but it has solved my problem. Hope this helps.
