Pontiac G6 Tires Safety Report | Nov 03, 2004
Reported on Nov 03, 2004
| I PURCHASED A PONTIAC G6 FROM A DEALER IN PALMDALE, CA IN 2004. PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN AS FOLLOWS: 1. WON'T HOLD ALIGNMENT - PULLS TO LEFT - IN SHOP 12/14/05. 2. NEW TIRES @20,998 MILES DUE TO ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS. 3. WON'T HOLD ALIGNMENT - PULLS TO LEFT - IN SHOP 3/27/07. 4. WON'T HOLD ALIGNMENT - PULLS TO LEFT - IN SHOP 11/02/07 5. WON'T HOLD ALIGNMENT - PULLS TO LEFT - IN SHOP 9/05/08 6. NEW TIRES @ 41,753 MILES DUE TO ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS- 4/24/09 7. NEW ROTORS, DRUMS AND BRAKES - 4/24/09 8. ALIGNMENT - PULLS TO LEFT - SWAPPED FRONT TIRES - 8/02/09 8. ALIGNMENT AND NEW REAR BRAKES - 8/29/09 9. ALIGNMENT - PULLS TO LEFT - IN SHOP 9/15/09 THE LIST OF PARTS & LABOR HAVE BEEN EXTENSIVE AND I AM ON MY 3RD SET OF TIRES AND CURRENTLY ONLY HAVE 48K ON MY CAR. THE TIRES ONLY LASTED FOR 20K MILES!!! I'VE HAD A TOTAL OF 6 ALIGNMENTS AND COUNTLESS ROTATIONS AND NOTHING WORKS. I HAVE ALSO BEEN THROUGH 2 SETS OF BRAKES AND ROTORS IN THIS TIME PERIOD AS WELL. WHEN I BLOGGED ABOUT THIS ISSUE THERE ARE A LOT OF OTHER FOLKS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL. I CONTACTED THE BBB AUTO LINE AND THEY SAID MY COMPLAINT IS NOT WITHIN THEIR JURISDICTION. I CONTACTED PONTIAC / GMC AND THEY SAID THEY CAN NOT HELP ME. THE CAR IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AND HOPEFULLY IT WON'T TAKE AN ACCIDENT FOR SOMEONE TO REALIZE THAT THE CAR IS A LEMON AND UNSAFE. *TR | |
