Pontiac Montana Service Brakes, Hydraulic Foundation Components Disc Safety Report | Dec 26, 2001
Reported on Dec 26, 2001
I WRITING TO EXPRESS DISSATISFACTION 2 MAJOR COMPONENT FAILURES OCCURRED ON A VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 50,000 MILES. THE INTAKE LEAK APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN PROBLEM - BUYER BEWARE. I CAN UNDERSTAND DISC PAD WEAR, BUT NOT MAJOR BRAKE SYSTEM REPLACEMENT/REPAIR. THE MECHANIC ALSO NOTED EXCESSIVE LIFTER NOISE; I FEAR THIS OBSERVATION WILL LEAD TO MORE MAJOR REPAIR WORK. THE DEALER HAS BEEN RESPONSIVE. MY COMPLAINT IS INTENDED FOR THE MANUFACTURERE AND OTHER CONSUMERS. I WILL NOT BE A GOOD REFERRAL FOR PROSPECTIVE MINIVAN OWNERS - ESSENTIALLY MY ENTIRE SOCIAL BASE FITS THE DEMOGRAPHIC FOR MINIVAN BUYERS. *AK | |
