Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Oct 27, 2009
Reported on Oct 27, 2009
| I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP DUE TO THE STEERING WHEEL BEING TOUGH TO TURN AT TIMES. I RECEIVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL FROM THE DEALERSHIP SAYING THERE MAY BE A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING. HOWEVER, WHEN I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO FIX THE CAR UNLESS THEY COULD PHYSICALLY SEE THAT THE STEERING WAS ACTING UP. JUST YESTERDAY, I COULDN'T TURN MY CAR WITHOUT USING TWO HANDS TO TUG ON THE STEERING WHEEL. IT WOULDN'T TURN WITHOUT FIGHTING WITH THE CAR. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, AND I AM AT THE POINT WHERE I WANT TO SELL THE CAR BECAUSE THERE ARE TOO MANY PROBLEMS WITH IT. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH STEERING SO MANY TIMES. WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX THE CAR? DO I HAVE TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT BEFORE THEY WILL FIX IT OR RECALL IT, BECAUSE I AM NOT PAYING FOR SOMETHING THAT I COMPLAINED ABOUT WHEN I HAD THE WARRANTY. I AM NOW OVER THE MILES FOR A WARRANTY. ANOTHER ISSUE THAT I HAVE REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHILE UNDER WARRANTY WAS THE CAR WON'T START. SOMETIMES I TURN THE KEY AND IT WON'T START. IT TAKES SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE CAR WILL ACTUALLY START. THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY. IT'S SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK. IT IS UNREAL THAT I CAN'T GET INTO MY CAR AND START IT WITHOUT HAVING A PROBLEM. I HAVE REPORTED THIS ISSUE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND AGAIN WAS TOLD THAT NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. I HAVE REPORTED SEVERAL OTHER ISSUES, BUT THE DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO HELP WITH ANYTHING. THERE ARE SO MANY ISSUES WITH THE PONTIAC G6. I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THIS CAR TO ANYONE UNLESS ALL OF THE ISSUES ARE CORRECTED. *TR | |
