Pontiac Grand Am Structure Body Door Safety Report | July 14, 2000
Reported on July 14, 2000
| HAD AN ISSUE UNDER ORIGINAL MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY OF WINDOWS BEING SCRATCHED BY DEFECT IN THE DOOR. THEY ACCEPTED RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECT AND REPLACED GLASS AT NO CHARGE. THEY SAID THAT THE PROBLEM THAT CAUSED THE SCRATCHES WAS RESOLVED. ON 8-23-02 THE ISSUE REOCCURED AND WAS TO BE FIXED. THE DEALERSHIP AT THAT TIME DID NOT HAVE THE NECESSARY PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. ON 12-4-02 THERE WAS AN APPOINTMENT MADE TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND REPLACE THE WINDOWS, BUT THE ICE STORM OF THE CENTURY HIT NORTH CAROLINA. SINCE THEN I HAVE NOT HAD THE OPPERTUNITY TO LEAVE MY CAR IN THE SHOP FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME DUE TO MY EMPLOYMENT. NOW PONTIAC SAYS THAT THEY WILL MAKE ME PAY OUT OF POCKET TO FIX THE ISSUES WITH THE DOOR THAT WERE SUPPOSE TO BE HANDLED UNDER THE ORIGINAL MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY. | |
