Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | July 03, 2009
Reported on July 03, 2009
| MY WIFE AND I OWN A PONTIAC G6 AND SHORTLY AFTER THE FIRST TIME WE CHANGED THE BRAKE PADS ON THE FRONT WHEELS, THE ROTORS WARPED. SINCE THE REPLACEMENT OF THE FIRST SET OF ROTORS WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH 4 SETS OF ROTORS. IT SEEMS THAT THE ROTORS WARP WITHIN 10 TO 20 THOUSAND MILES OF INSTALLING NEW PADS AND ROTORS. DRIVING STYLE DOES NOT SEEM TO BE THE ISSUE AS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS OWNERS OF THIS MODEL CAR. BRAKE SHOPS EVEN SAY THAT IT IS PROBABLY THE WORST CAR MADE OF BRAKES. NOTHING WE CAN DO SEEMS TO FIX IT, ASIDE FROM NOT DRIVING THE CAR BECAUSE THE PULL FROM BRAKING IS SO BAD. THIS IS A GOOD CAR WITH A HORRIBLY ENGINEERED BRAKING SYSTEM. *TR | |
