Pontiac Gto Suspension Front Macpherson Strut Safety Report | May 21, 2007
Reported on May 21, 2007
| IN MY 2005 PONTIAC GTO THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT TIRES RUBBING THE STRUT ASSEMBLY. THE MARKS ON THE STRUTS ARE VERY VISIBLE AND THEY HAVE WORN DOWN TO THE BARE METAL. I NOTICED THE PROBLEM WHEN ROTATING MY TIRES. AN ALIGNMENT HAS BEEN DONE IN ORDER TO INCREASE THE CAMBER, HOWEVER, THE INITIAL SPECS WERE WELL WITHIN MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS. THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT PERFORM THE ALIGNMENT. THE PONTIAC DEALERSHIP HAD NO REAL SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM NOR WERE THEY VERY WILLING TO FINDING ONE. I AM NOT SURE THAT THE ALIGNMENT HAS FIXED THE ISSUE. *TR | |
