Reported on Nov 28, 2000
| I FEEL AS THOUGH THERE IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH MY 1998 PONTIAC GRANDAM. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP (BOOMERSHINE PONTIAC) TWICE IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS. ON NOVE 28, 2000 ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS IN MY VEHICLE CAME ON AND THEN MY CAR LOCKED UP WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE BYPASS AT ABOUT 50 MPH. I COULD NOT STEER OR BRAKE MY CAR. IT WAS LOCKED UP, SO THREW ON THE EMERGENCY BRAKES AND SLID UNTIL THE CAR CAME TO A STOP. I REPORTED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT MY ABS, ETS, CHECK ENGINE, AND AIRBAG LIGHTS KEPT FLASHING ON AND OFF. ON FEB 20, 2001 I TOOK MY CAR BACK TO BOOMERSHINE PONTIAC AND REPORTED THAT MY CHECK ENGINE, ABS, AND AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ONCE AGAIN COMING ON. MY CAR WAS SUPPOSELY REPAIRED WHEN I PICKED IT UP ON FEB 22, 2001. ON MARCH 1. 2001 AT 9:05AM I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND MY ABS, ETS, AND AIRBAG LIGHTS WERE ONCE AGAIN FLASHING . I WENT TO PONTIAC BOOMERSHINE TO REPORT THIS. AND I TOOK THE SALES CONSULTANT JASON BRESNOCK FOR A RIDE IN THE CAR. MY AIRBAG LIGHT DID FLASH WHILE JASON BRESNOCK WAS RIDING WITH ME. I HAVE MADE AND APPOINTMENT FOR TUESDAY MARCH 6, 2001 AND 7:45AM TO HAVE THEM WORK ON MY CAR ONCE AGAIN. I FEEL THAT THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THIS CAR AND THE TECHNICIANS CAN'T FIND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM CAN BE. I FEEL THAT I AM DRIVING AN UNSAFE VEHICLE AT THIS POINT.*AK | |
