Pontiac Grand Prix Engine And Engine Cooling Safety Report | Feb 02, 2003
Reported on Feb 02, 2003
| I OWN A 2000 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX, IT SUFFERED A COOLANT LEAK IN THE UPPER MANIFOLD SECTION. AFTER SOME RESEARCH LOCALLY AND FROM PERSONAL FAMILY EXPERIENCE. I BELIEVE SOME PONTIAC V6 SUFFERS FROM EITHER DEFECTIVE GASKETS AND OR FAULTY ASSEMBLY THAT CAUSE A LEAK TO DEVELOP AFTER 2-3 YEARS OF USEAGE WHICH IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR A NEW CAR PURCHASE AND PONTIAC OFFERING NO SERVICE BULLETINS/RECALLS ON THIS ISSUE. OUR FAMILY HAS SUFFERED 4 SUCH FAILURES INCLUDING 2- GRANDPRIX'S (1999 & 2000 MODELS) , GRAND AM (1997), SUNFIRE (1997) AMONG NUMEROUS OTHER FAILURES IN MY GENERAL LOCATION. I WOULD ASK YOUR AGENCY TO LOOK FURTHER INTO THIS POTENTIAL PROBLEM AND RECKIFY THE SITUATION | |
