Check attorneys that offer lemon law help in your state. They will not charge you anything if they believe they can win your case. I contacted an attorney here.
p.s. I'm tired of rental cars too (read my thread)

Bryan,
The Lemon Law states it has to be the same issue and be documented several times. It has to also show new parts were installed and failed the same way. There is a member who ended up doing a collaterial swap and got a new truck instead of a cobalt. At the dealership where I bought my cars they have soooo many SS's it's not even funny. I am sure you could go to yours and say I don't want this anymore and tell them it's a damn lemon. They can work on getting the car you want only after the papers have been filed and approved.
Additionally, you have to have been without out the car at least 1/6 of the time or bettere since owning it to show it's been a inconvience for you.
Here is an example thread of the one I was talking about above.

You want a "Collateral Swap"
Call GM Customer Service and file a formal complaint tell them 4 times for the same issue... tell them you have all documents... and tell them you just want an NEW car... and say "Collateral Swap"
But also remember to be nice.
I didn't fall under lemon law... but after an ass load of problems I got my bumper to bumper warrenty extended to 2011 w/ 90500 miles...
