Pontiac G6 Power Train Safety Report | July 31, 2013
Reported on July 31, 2013
| WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING AND THE TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK, THE APPLIED EMERGENCY BRAKE WOULD NOT PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM DRIFTING FORWARD NOR BACKWARD. I WAS INFORMED, AT A GMC DEALERSHIP, THAT THE REAR BRAKE CALIBERS HAD SEIZED IN A PARTIALLY ENGAGED POSITION -- SO THE BRAKES WERE DRAGGING WHILE THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN _ AND _ THE EMERGENCY WAS USELESS. THE REPAIR COST WAS OVER $ 500.00. THE CAR HAD A REAR BRAKE REPLACEMENT JOB ABOUT 1,000 MILES BEFORE THIS PROBLEM, AND SUPPOSEDLY THE CALIBER PROBLEM WASN'T APPARENT THEN. *TR | |
