Pontiac G5 Steering Safety Report | July 31, 2009
Reported on July 31, 2009
| THIS PROBLEM IS A SAFETY HAZARD, I AM TIRED AS ?!@#$% GOING THROUGH THIS RECURRING PROBLEM EVERY FEW WEEKS. I HAVE TO PUT MY CAR IN THE SHOP OR GONE TO THE CAR DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASE MY CAR IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS AT LEAST 8-10 TIMES. ALTHOUGH, THE CAR GETS TEMPORARY FIX, THIS CONCERN IS A PAIN AND REALLY AGGRAVATED. ALSO, CONSIDERING THE DEALERSHIPS USES POOR QUALITY MATERIALS OR SHALL I SAY CHEAP PARTS I AM RIGHT BACK AT SQUARE ONE. THE POWER STEERING LIGHTS COMES ON AND THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT REPEATEDLY AND THE SERVICES TECH'S AND SERVICES MANAGERS TELLS YOU TO PUT YOUR LIFE AT RISK BY DRIVING THE VEHICLE TO THEM SO THEY CAN SEE THAT THE POWERING STEERING IS OUT AND THEN MAKE THE DECISION THAT THE POWERING STEERING COLUMN HAS GONE OUT. ALTHOUGH THIS IS WHAT I AM TELLING THEM OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I GUESS I SHOULD BE HAPPY THAT THE CONCERN IS BEING FIXED RIGHT? WELL HELL NO BECAUSE, I AM PAYING FOR EXTENDED SERVICES TO COVER CONCERNS LIKE THIS. I HAVE TO PUT MY LIFE IN JEOPARDY BY DRIVING A VEHICLE WITHOUT POWER STEERING BARELY ABLE TO TURN THE WHEEL AND THAT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!! I AM MAD AS?!@#$% AND I WANT SOMEONE TO UNDERSTAND WHERE I AM COMING FROM. I DON'T EVEN WANT THE CAR NO MORE BUT I AM STUCK! PONTIAC G5'S ARE A NICE LITTLE CAR FOR A ONE PERSON BUT IF I COULD GET OUT OF THIS CAR I WOULD! *TR | |
