Pontiac G6 Structure Safety Report | Sept 30, 2005
Reported on Sept 30, 2005
| ON OUR 2005 PONTIAC GT 6, DURING MOST DAYLIGHT DRIVING CONDITIONS, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL IS SO DIFFICULT TO READ THAT, AT TIMES, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO TELL HOW FAST ONE IS TRAVELING. SOMETIMES, IT TAKES A SECOND OR MORE TO MAKE IT OUT. RARELY, IT IS EASILY READABLE. WE THINK THAT THE EXTRA TIME NEEDED TO DISCERN ONE'S SPEED, IF IT CAN BE DETERMINED AT ALL, COULD EASILY LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT. THE GAS GAUGE AND COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGES ARE EVEN MORE DIFFICULT TO MAKE OUT, BUT THAT DOES NOT REPRESENT AS SERIOUS A PROBLEM AS FAILING TO BE ABLE TO READ ONE'S SPEED. IF THE ABILITY EXISTED TO TURN ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING, THE PROBLEM WOULD BE ELIMINATED. *NM | |
