Reported on June 01, 2005
| I PURCHUSED MY 2004 PONTIAC GTO IN NOVEMBER OF 2004 I WAS ONE OF THE FIRST TO OWEN THIS CAR IN 2004. HOWEVER ABOUT 9,000 MILES OF ME DRIVING MY CAR I HAD REAR TIRE PROBLEMS THE CAMBER AND TOE WAS NOT STRAIGH. I TOOK MY CAR BACK TO THE DEALER SHIP AND THEY TOLD ME NOT THERE PROBLEM. I TOOK MY CAR TO A NUMBER OF DIFFRENT ALINMENT PLACES AND THEY ALL CHECKED ALINMENT AND SAID IT WAS OFF A LITTLE BUT NOT ENOUGH TO WERE ONLY ON THE INSIDE OF THE REAR TIERS. I REPLACE THE TIRES MY SELF. ABOUT 1,000 MILES LATER MY STEERING WAS SHAKING AND FRONT END, THE FIRST THING I THOUGHT IT WAS MY ROTOERS I WENT TO REPLACE AND RELIZE IT WAS MY FRONT TIRES. AGAIN I TOOK TO DEALER AND AGAIN THEY TURN ME AWAY. I CONTACTED PONTIAC AND GM THEY SAID THE WILL SENT AN INSPECTOR TO LOOK AT CAR THAT NEVER HAPPEN> THE DEALER SHIP DID NOT WANT TO SET UP WITH ME. PONTIAC TOLD ME THEY DO NOT GO TO PEOPLE HOUSES FOR THAT IT HAS TO BE DONE IN DEALERSHIP. I WENT TO ANOTHER DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THEY NEVER HEARD OF ANYTHING LIKE THAT. I REPLACE MY TIRES MORE THEN 3 TIMES IN FRONT AND 2 TIMES IN BACK AND EVERYTIME HAD AN ALINMENT DONE. THE FIRST TIME I HAD FRONTS REPLACED THEY TOLD ME THAT THE FRONT TIRES ARE RUBBING AGENST THE STRUTS. I DID NOT GO TO DEALER TO BE TURNED AWAY. I CANT KEEP AFFORDING NEW TIRES EVERYTIME 6,000 COMES. I PURCHUSED A NEW CAR TO HAVE NO HEADACHS BUT INSTEAD I HAVE MORE AND SPEND A LOT OF MONEY. ALSO THE GAS CAP GETS STUCK ON WHEN I GET GAS. | |
