Pontiac Gto Suspension Front Macpherson Strut Safety Report | Jan 19, 2006



Reported on Jan 19, 2006


I LEASED A 2004 PONTIAC GTO. THE AUTOMOBILE HAD PREMATURE TIRE WEAR ON THE INSIDES OF THE TIRE. THE CAR HAS LOTS OF VIBRATIONS WHILE TRAVELING AT ALL SPEEDS. I REPLACED THE TIRES FOR THE THIRD TIME THROUGH GOODYEAR AND IT STILL HAS VIBRATIONS. I TOOK TO DEALER TODAY AND CAR HAS A SERVICE BULLETIN FOR VIBRATIONS THE STRUTS ARE CAUSING PROBLEMS. THE STRUTS ARE ALSO RUBBING ON THE TIRES CAUSING THE PREMATURE WEAR HOWEVER THE PONTIAC DOES NOT WISH TO RECOGNIZE THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS ALSO A SAFETY CONCERN WHICH COULD LEAD TO A BLOW OUT. BUYER BEWARE! *NM
