Pontiac Grand Prix Visibility Power Window Devices And Controls Safety Report | May 15, 2000
Reported on May 15, 2000
| I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE FAILURES OF THE WINDOWS BEING STUCK DOWN(BOTH AT DIFF. TIMES) THIS IS NOT AN ISSOLATED INCIDENT. IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR BETWEEN 1997 AND 1999. ALTHOUGH IT MAY NOT SEEM TO BE DIRECTLY A HAZARDOUS PROBLEM, IT CAN BE IF IN AN ACCIDENT(ROLL OVER)AS AN ARM, OR ENTIRE BODY MAY BE THROWN FROM THE CAR IF THE WINDOWS WERE DOWN. AS SMALL OF A FRACTION OF A POSSIBILITY THAT THAT MAY BE, IT IS STILL A POSSIBLE PROBLEM THAT COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THE DRIVER HAD THE OPTION TO ROLL THE WINDOWS UP. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM BY PONTIAC AND WILL NOT BE ADDRESSED. EVEN THE REPLACEMENT MOTORS FAIL, THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE MAILFUNCTIONING MOTORS UNLESS THEY FAIL WHILE AT THE SERVICE SHOP.(IT IS AN INTERMITENT PROBLEM). PLEASE HELP TO GET THIS RESOLVED! THANK YOU VERY MUCH. | |
