Pontiac G8 Electrical System Safety Report | Dec 17, 2010
Reported on Dec 17, 2010
| I AM THE 2ND OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE I BOUGHT IT WITH 20,000 MILES AND NOW IT HAS 41,000. THE CAR HAS HAD 5 RECALLS SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT WHICH I UNDERSTAND IS NOT A BAD THING CAUSE THEY ARE FIXING THE PROBLEMS,BUT WHEN THE PROBLEM KEEPS EXISTING AND GM SAYS ILL GIVE YOU A YEAR FREE MAINTENANCE FOR THE TROUBLE COME ON, I HAVE 3 KIDS THAT RIDE IN THE CAR,AND PARTS THAT DON'T BELONG ON THE CAR BECAUSE THEY DON'T MAKE THEM ANYMORE, (WIRING HARNESS) THE ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND NOW I HAVE NO HIGH BEAMS , GM RESPONSE TO THAT WAS WE WILL PUT NEW BULBS IN FOR YOU TO SEE IF THAT WORKS HELLO WHEN BOTH LIGHTS GO OUT THE SAME TIME AND THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON I MAY NOT BE AN EXPERT BUT I CAN SAY I THINK THERE JUST MIGHT BE A PROBLEM, BUT NOT TO GM. I PUT THE RISK OF 3 KIDS LIVES EVERYDAY I DRIVE THE CAR WONDERING IF THE CAR IS GOING TO GET ME FROM POINT A TO POINT B BECAUSE THE WIRING HARNESS IS JUST PIECES OF OTHER CARS PUT TOGETHER TO MAKE IT WORK. WITH MY CAR IN THE SHOP AGAIN NOW AS WE SPEAK, GM DOES NOT CARE ABOUT SAFETY OF MY KIDS OR MYSELF,THE CAR DOESN'T NEED TO BE ON THE ROAD BUT IM NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND THEY DON'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT BUT OFFER ME A YEAR FREE MAINTENANCE, IT WOULDN'T BE A BAD OFFER IF I NEEDED MY OIL CHANGED OR TIRES ROTATED, BUT THAT'S NOT THE PROBLEM, ALL 10 RECALLS ON THE CAR HAVE BEEN ELECTRICAL AND WITH THE TRANSMISSION. MY QUESTION TO GM IS WHY SELL A CAR YOU CANNOT FIX WITH THE RIGHT PARTS OR MAKE IT RIGHT BY TAKING THE CAR BACK ???? I AM A VERY UNHAPPY CUSTOMER!!! *TR | |
