Pontiac G6 Steering Column Safety Report | Nov 01, 2007
Reported on Nov 01, 2007
| I RECENTLY BOUGHT A USED PONTIAC G6 (2006) SHORTLY AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR LESS THAN SIX MONTHS THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO SHAKE WHEN I WOULD BRAKE AT HIGH SPEEDS. I TOOK MY CAR IN AND THEY SAID THAT THE ROTORS NEEDED TO BE RE-MACHINED AND THAT THEY WERE UNDER WARRANTY. NOW, 10,000 MILES LATER THE WHEEL IS SHAKING AGAIN AND I AM IN FEAR OF THE SAME PROBLEM. NOT TO MENTION THE WHEEL HAS BEEN MAKING CLICKING/BUMPING NOISE WHEN IT IS TURNED AND A CREAKING TENSION NOISE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE ROTORS BUT I CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE THEM RE-MACHINED/TURNED EVERY 10,000 MILES BECAUSE IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I ALSO FEEL THE CAR IS NOT SAFE IF THERE ARE PROBLEMS WITH THE STEERING COLUMN IN A 2 YEAR OLD CAR. *TR | |
