Service Airbag light intermittently comes on
i think i would contact a different dealer. it sounds like a bad computer, but either way, that is a safety issue and should be corrected. you might want to purchase a code reader and find out what code its being triggered. these are not very expense and are really handy to have. about 20.00 at newegg.com. Check these codes and then ask for help from a different dealer or an out side mechanic.
How do I get speed control to work
First thing to check is all the brake lights including the third light they must all work to complete the curcuit. Then the fuses if they are all good then you will need to have the cruise module tested
Okay - My car radio/CD player & tweeters are working, BUT the door & rear speakers only work intermittently - Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this myself?
Take off the door panels, and check connection to the speakers, and trace it back through the door wiring and see if there are any breaks or kinks in the wire, or anywhere the outer coating has come off. It sounds like you may have a short in the system, something isnt grounded right. It can be a long, tiring process attempting to find the issue, but it is the only way. Something that would be cheaper than taking it to a dealer would be to find a local stereo store, and either have them trace it for you (they can use an ohmometer to check resistance and connection), or just have them put standard speakers in and possibly a new deck. It is hard to say without having the vehicle, but it is a wiring issue from the sounds of it. Breaks in wires can come from pinching in the body, under seeats, in door panels, or harnesses connecting to the doors.
Why does my HHR smoke at idle?
check the manifold gaskets, upper and lower. maybe they are bad and coolant is mixing with the oil, and burning it up and throwing it out the exhaust pipe, witch will cause it to smoke. check the oil to see if coolant is entering it. on dip stick, also check to see if coolant in recovery tank has oil in it. I had a problem with oil getting to coolant, on a 2000 malibu, changed gaskets and did a good flush. before filling it back up with coolant. No problems it run good. Good-Day!

Drierside wiper not working
if just one wiper arm is working then there might be something wrong with the linkage between the two wiper arms. there is only one wiper motor so if one arm is working that eliminates it as the problem. also check the connection between the wiper arm and the linkage. if you can move the arm when the wipers are off the connector may be stripped out. this happens a lot in the winter when people try to clear a heavy load of snow from the windshield with the wipers. it might also be just be loose and need adjustment
