Pontiac G6 Service Brakes, Hydraulic Foundation Components Disc Rotor Safety Report | July 24, 2006
Reported on July 24, 2006
| THE BRAKES ON MY 2005 PONTIAC G6 PULSE WHEN APPLIED, ESPECIALLY GOING DOWN HILL. THE CAR WAS TAKEN IN FOR SERVICE JULY 2006 WITH ONLY 7,900 MILES ON IT. BOTH THE REAR AND FRONT ROTORS WERE MACHINED AND PULSING STOPPED. THE PULSING BEGAN AGAIN AROUND MAY OF 2007. THE CAR WAS THEN INSPECTED IN AUGUST 2007 AND THE REAR BRAKES FAILED TO PASS INSPECTION AT 11,400 MILES. THE REAR BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS BOTH NEEDED REPLACED. SHORTLY AFTER THOSE WERE REPLACED THE BRAKES BEGAN PULSING AGAIN AND THE FRONT ROTORS HAD TO BE MACHINED AGAIN IN DECEMBER 2007 WITH ONLY 12,000 MILES ON THE CAR. THERE SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE ROTORS RUSTING AND I HAVE HAD TO PUT $600 INTO BRAKES FOR THIS CAR WITH LESS THAN 13,000 MILES ON IT. *TR | |
