Pontiac G6 Service Brakes, Hydraulic Safety Report | Oct 04, 2009
Reported on Oct 04, 2009
| DUE TO CONSTANT WARPING OF THE ROTORS, EXCESSIVE PRESSURE WAS PUT ON THE REST OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM CAUSING THE FRONT LEFT TIE ROD TO SNAP. THIS CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO LOSE CONTROL AND VEERED IN A LEFT 90 DEGREE ANGLE INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. OTHER VEHICLES WERE ABLE TO SWERVE SO THERE WAS NO IMPACT WITH ME. I HAVE HAD CONSTANT PROBLEMS WITH THE ROTORS WARPING ON THIS CAR AND HAVE GONE THROUGH ABOUT 3 PAIRS DURING 80,000 MILES. ALL PARTS HAVE BEEN REPAIRED BY MY PERSONAL MECHANIC WITH GMAC TELLING ME THAT BRAKES ARE NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT I PURCHASED WITH THE CAR. *TR | |
