Pontiac Grand Prix Electrical System Wiring Interior/under Dash Safety Report | Mar 28, 2000
Reported on Mar 28, 2000
| THE CAR WAS TAKEN IN FOR A DEFECTIVE ALTERNATER AND WAS REPLACED. THE SERVICE TECH NOTICED THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON AND ASKED IF I HAD SEEN IT ON. I SAID YES IT HAD BEEN ON BEFORE AND GONE OFF FROM TIME TO TIME. HE THEN SAID IT WAS A PROBLEM IN THE WIRING HARNESS THAT THEY HAD REPAIRED ON OTHER GRAND PRIXS AND IT WOULD COST AROUND $200.00 TO FIX IT. HE ALSO SAID WITH THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE SYSTEM WOULD NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A ACCIDENT. BUT MY QUESTION WAS WHY SHOULD I PAY FOR FIXING THE PROBLEM THAT THEY DESIGNED. THERE IS A SBN # 98839010 ON RECORD SEQ 228, DATED 9806 NHTSA SB602269 FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM. WHAT RECOURSE DO I HAVE? THANK YOU | |
