Last year, my wife and I purchased a 2005 Pontiac Vibe AWD from a local dealer. The car was used and had about 43,000 kms on it. We purchased the car July 5, 2008. The original owner purchased the car on July 30th 2005, so we knew we had a month to find out if there were any problems with the vehicle and if so, to get it covered by the manufac. warranty before it expired. We found nothing. Then about midway through august one of the lightbulbs on the stereo's screen burnt out. We brought the car back to the dealer and said they couldn't do anything about it. As time went on, the remaining two bulbs blew making it impossible to see what is on the screen. This is a huge pain. Should we go back to the dealer or just think of buying a new stereo. It makes me wonder how so soon after the warranty, things start breaking. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
