Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Dec 01, 2008
Reported on Dec 01, 2008
| I OWN A PONTIAC G6 AND RECENTLY I HAVE NOTICED A METAL SCRAPING SOUND, A LOUD ROARING AND TOOK IT IN TO HAVE IT EXAMINED. I WAS TOLD THAT THE FRONT TIRE ROD WAS FALLING APART, THE PASSENGER SIDE HUB BEARING WAS LOOSE, THE DRIVER SIDE CV BOOT WAS LEAKING, OVERALL THAT IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND THE POWER STEERING WAS TO GO OUT AT ANYTIME. THIS IS GOOD TO KNOW INFO, SEEING HOW I HAVE KIDS IN THE BACKSEAT. I READ THAT THERE HAS BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS IN REGARDS TO THE POWER STEERING ON THIS MODEL. SO WHY HAS THERE BEEN NO RECALL? I DO NOT HAVE A COUPLE OF GRAND LAYING AROUND TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM , JUST LIKE THE REST OF THE US CITIZENS IN THIS ROUGH ECONOMICAL TIME. AGAIN, THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN, SO WHY NO RECALL? THE INVESTIGATION WAS INITIATED BACK IN 2007, WHAT'S THE HOLD UP? AM I SUPPOSE TO WAIT UNTIL SERIOUS DAMAGE OCCURS AND FILE A LAWSUIT? THIS IS UTTERLY ABSURD AND SHOULD NOT BE APPARENT IN A VEHICLE THAT IS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD. PLEASE LET ME KNOW THE STATUS OF THE INVESTIGATION. *TR | |
