Pontiac G6 Service Brakes, Hydraulic Safety Report | May 19, 2009
Reported on May 19, 2009
| I PURCHASED A PONTIAC G-6 2006 FROM ELCO CHEVROLET THE CAR ONLY HAD 20K MILES ON IT. THE 1ST NIGHT I TOOK IT HOME THE FRONT END SHOOK VIOLENTLY WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES I WANTED TO CANCEL THE SALE RIGHT THEN & THERE BUT THEY ASSURED ME IT WAS JUST RUST ON THE ROTORS. SO THEY RESURFACED THE ROTORS & IT STOPPED THE SHAKING FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS NOW THE CAR IS JUST AS BAD AS THE 1ST NIGHT I BOUGHT IT. AFTER LOOKING ON THE INTERNET IT SEEMS THAT THERE IS AN AWFUL LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM SOME WITH AS FEW AS 8K MILES AND MANY PEOPLE ARE CALLING FOR A RECALL BECAUSE FORGET ABOUT THE DEALER HELPING YOU AFTER THE SALE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IS THE GOVERNMENT GOING TO WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE DIES BEFORE THEY DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. IN THIS ECONOMY I AM DOING GOOD TO KEEP UP THE PAYMENTS ON THE CAR LET ALONE HAVING A MAJOR REPAIR BILL WHEN I HAVEN'T EVEN MADE 7 PAYMENTS ON THE CAR YET. *TR | |
