Pontiac Montana Power Train Automatic Transmission Safety Report | May 15, 2003
Reported on May 15, 2003
| I PURCHASED A PONTAIC MONTANA FROM ROGERS PONTAIC IN CHICAGO IN MARCH 2002. IN MAY OF 2003 I BEGIN TO EXPERIENCE TROUBLE WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THE FRIST OCCASION OCCURED IN MAY OF 2003.(REPAIRED,BUT THE VECHICLE DID NOT OPERATE THE WAY I THOUGHT IT SHOULD) I TOOK IT BACK TO THE PONTAIC DEALER - GROSSINGER IN LINCOLNWOOD, IL. BUT, THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS OK) THE SECOND BEING NOVEMBER OF 2003. ( THE REPAIR WORK DONE WAS GREAT! THE VECHICLE WORKED AS GOOD AS WHEN IT WAS FIRST PURCHASED) BUT, I HAVE BEGUN TO EXPERIENCE THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS BEFORE HERE IN AUGUST 2004. THIS HAS LED ME TO BELIEVE THAT A DEFECT IS IN THE TRANSMISSION OF THIS VECHICLE. MY ONLY SOLUTION WOULD BE FOR THE MANUFACTURER (PONTAIC - GMC) TO REPLACE THE VECHICLE WITH A NEW ONE. I DO NOT WANT TO CONTINUALLY HAVE THE TRANSMISSION REPAIRED. AFTER THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED, I WILL HAVE TO PAY THE COST OF A DEFECT THAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE THE VECHICLE WAS PURCHASE. | |
