Pontiac Grand Prix Steering Rack And Pinion Safety Report | June 24, 2004



Reported on June 24, 2004


APRIL 18, 2003 RECALL 02049 WAS PERFORMED ON MY CAR AT GOLDEN PONITAC IN READING, PA - 61,518 MILES. FEBUARY 2004 NOTICED STEERING TO THE LEFT WAS BECOMING MORE DIFFICULT. APRIL 2004 I TOOK CAR BACK TO GOLDEN PONTIAC AND COMPLAINED ABOUT THE STEERING. THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS. STEERING CONTINUED TO GET WORSE AND I TOOK CAR TO JOHN BAILEY PONTIAC IN BUFORD, GA - 73,135 MILES. THEY REPLACED THE STEERING PUMP, STEERING GEAR AND OUTER TIE RODS - $ 1139.58. I THINK WHEN THE RECALL WAS DONE THEY SHOULD HAVE REPLACED THE GEAR ASSEMBLY PER THE RECALL NOTICE. SEE OTHER ODI # 10057963 AND 10083428. I THINK I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED THE ABOVE AMOUNT DUE TO THE RECALL NOT BEING PERFORMED IN IT'S ENTIRETY. I HAVE SPENT A TOTAL OF $1606.69 ON THE CAR THIS SUMMER!!!! *JB
