Pontiac Aztek Engine And Engine Cooling Safety Report | Aug 01, 2005
Reported on Aug 01, 2005
| SES LIGHT AND ALL DASH LIGHTS CAME ON, TOOK TO SALERNO DUANE IN NEWTON NJ WHEW I PURCHASED MY 2003 PONTIAC AZTEK NEW. WAS TOLD INTAKE MANIFOLD LEAKING AND THE CAUSE OF LIGHTS, SES AND DASH LIGHTS. $1100 LATER, LIGHTS STILL GOING OFF AND ON. NOW TOLD INSTRUMENT CLUSTER PROBLEM. $250. FOR PARTS PLUS LABOR. I AM VERY ANGRY THAT I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET, THAT I PAID ALL THAT MONEY AND NOW THEY SAY IT IS SOMETHING ELSE. I ARGUED WITH THE DEALER THAT I WILL NOT PAY FOR INSTRUMENT CLUSTER OR LABOR AND THEY AGREED. I ALSO FEEL THAT I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET AND LABOR SINCE THIS WAS OBVIOUSLY NOT THE PROBLEM IN THE FIRST PLACE AND THEY TOOK ADVANTAGE OF ME. THERE IS NO PROOF THAT THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET WAS LEAKING, AND EVEN IF IT WAS, IT SHOULD BE ON A RECALL FROM GM BECAUSE IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR GM MOTORS. WHEN IS ANYBODY GOING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS. *NM | |
