Pontiac G6 Suspension Safety Report | Nov 03, 2010
Reported on Nov 03, 2010
| I HAVE A 2006 PONITAC G6 4 DOOR SEDAN. THE CAR HAS 45,500 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. AT 44,024 MILES I HAD TO HAVE A FOUR WHEEL ALIGNMENT. NOW AT 45,500 MILES I DISCOVER THAT SINCE THE FULL ALIGNMENT BOTH OF THE SWAY BAR LINKS HAVE GONE BAD. THE CAR WAS MAKING NOISE IN THE FRONT SUSPENSION AND THE CAR SWAYS FROM SIDE TO SIDE WHILE DRIVING THROUGH CORNERS OR IN A STRONG SIDE WIND. I PURCHASED THE CAR WITH 32,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER AND AT 34,000 MILES WHILE ON VACATION I HAD TO REPLACE THE REAR BRAKES AND ROTORS ALONG WITH THE FRONT BRAKES WITH A TOTAL BILL BY THE CHEVY DEALER OVER $600.00. I ALSO HAVE ONE OF THE CARS THAT HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE POWER STEERING GETTING HARD TO TURN AND THEN GOES BACK TO NORMAL. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL PONTIAC DEALER ABOUT MY CONCERNS AND TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANY SERVICE BULLETINS FOR THE CAR. I WAS TOLD THAT MY PROBLEMS WERE THE RESULTS OF THE BAD ROADS WERE I LIVE. IT SEEMS STRANGE TO ME THAT MY 1993 CORVETTE WITH 110,000 MILES ON THE SAME ROADS AS MY PONTIAC DOES NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE SUSPENSION. *TR | |
