Default *RANT*RANT*RANT***GDMF bad memory!!!

sorry for the rant guys but i have to vent.
i thought my warranty expired next year. don't know exactly why i thought that but i did.
so now that my car is setting off all kinds of warnings (ABS, TC, AH....) i set up an appointment ot take my car in. only to find out I WAS WRONG! warranty expired in march.
so now i'm looking at a possibly ECBM replacement on my own dime! f***er!
anybody want to buy a '01 convertible?
(just to clarify, i'm mad at myself for not checking better)

Maybe you can get GM to pay for it even tho you're out of warranty. Check out these 2 threads:

i may try this shortly.
i have been checking grounds, ala the sticky thread, but fear it won't be that easy. considering the car is originally a SoCal car and it's even dryer here in vegas, i'm not seeing any corrosion on the grounds i've checked so far.
