Pontiac Gto Suspension Safety Report | Nov 22, 2007
Reported on Nov 22, 2007
| WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY THE INSIDE EDGE OF THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE WAS SLICED OFF BY THE STRUT WHICH RUBS AGAINST THE TIRE. ALMOST LOST CONTROL ON THE FREEWAY. THE TIRE WAS SLICED DOWN TO THE METAL CORDS. THE OTHER TIRES ALSO SHOW THE SAME UNUSUAL WEAR PATTERN. IT IS HARD TO NOTICE THIS UNIQUE TIRE WEAR BECAUSE IT IS ON THE HIDDEN INSIDE EDGE. I FOUND OUT AFTER THIS HAPPENED, IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE 2004-2006 PONTIAC GTO. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED BY THIS DEFECT SOMEDAY. *TR | |
