Pontiac G6 Engine And Engine Cooling Engine Safety Report | Jan 10, 2005
Reported on Jan 10, 2005
| I PURCHASED MY 2005 PONTIAC G6 JAN. 10, 2005. THIS CAR IS HAVING ISSUES STARTING FIRST THING. IT WILL EITHER OVER START LIKE I HELD THE IGNITION TOO LONG OR IT WILL KEEP TRYING TO START ONCE IT HAS BEEN STARTED. IN BOTH CASES, THE ENGINE WILL DIE. I HAVE BEEN NOTIFYING THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS ISSUE SINCE THE CAR WAS LESS THAN A MONTH OLD. EACH TIME, IT WAS BROUGHT INTO THE DEALERSHIP, RAN ON THE COMPUTER, AND EXPLAINED TO ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG AND THE TECHNICIANS COULDN'T RE-CREATE THE ISSUE. I CALLED GMAC ABOUT THE ISSUE AND THEY HAD THEIR OWN TECHNICIAN COME OUT. THEIR TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THAT A CERTAIN VALVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND ONCE IT WAS FIXED, IT WOULD SOLVE ALL ISSUES. PART WAS INSTALLED AND TO THIS DAY, THE CAR STILL IS OVERSTARTING. I STATED 700 FAILURES BECAUSE THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I START THE CAR IN THE MORNING. *NM | |
