PONTIAC SUNFIRE 1998 car safety problem was reported on Apr 22, 1998.PONTIAC SUNFIRE 1998, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with AIR BAGS . vehicle was rented from enterprise. vehicle driven on interstate highway at night when it ran over some debris from prior accident on the road. debris struck undercarraige and the airbags on both sides deployed. injury caused to passenger who was looking in the glove box at the time of the incident. all occupants had seat belts on at the time. car velocity at time of air bag deployment was 70 mph. after bag deployment the vehicle was driven to the side of the road and stopped by driver whose vison was badly obstructed by the airbag. no damage except to undercarraige and interior of the car was done. believe this isn't the way an air bag is supposed to work. i reported this to you earlier on a non standard form and when i reviewed your complaint list i didn't see it so i am resubmitting it on your own form. i was a section head of system safety at nwc china lake for 5 years and my professional opinion is that a single point failure caused the airbags to deploy and that the cause is very closely associated with the accelerometer system. i have done some research into it and have found accelerometer problems not only on this model but others. matters of the accelerometer delaminating under environmental stress and the problem of stiction in the accelerometer elements are just two additional problems encountered with accelerometers put into automobiles by industry. compound that with an incomplete test/inspection and you have a disaster waiting to happen. i took the matter up with the current head of sytem safety at nwc, ken chirkis, and he agrees. in addition he suggested that we inform sato our travel people about the hazzard since the government rents this style of vehicle extensively and the 'fix' implemented for the 96 & 97 models apparent does't work for the 98. the navy has a requirement that for safety features a failure rate of 1x10e-6. this one failure alone would eliminate this vehicle. however it's also combined with another.1 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1G2JB5247W7.

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 1998 car safety problem was reported on Feb 28, 2002.PONTIAC SUNFIRE 1998, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK . my abs brake module went out, along with my regular brakes as well. if my car goes over 30 miles per hour, the car skids to a stop and my tires lock up. my car is just out of warranty and i know gm has a "code a" that covers repair if the vehicle is out of warranty, but the car doesn't yet have 60,000 miles on it. only a gm dealership can fix it, but they won't cover it under code a. i took it to another repair shop and they told me that something in my car's system caused the abs brake module go out, so there techinically is something wrong with my car, it isn't just that the part went out. i have talked to pontiac repeatedly for over the past month, and although they admit this shouldn't happen to my car with only 48,00 miles on it, they refuse to repair it for me under code a. obviously there is a defect in my car, however, they won't do anything about it. i don't want to give any more money to gm because they obviously are of no help, but i can't even get my car repaired by a regular mechanic because only the dealership can fix the abs brake module. i would like to report gm for not repairing a defect in my car, because i literally have no brakes left in my car, and they refuse to do anything about it. my car is just out of warranty, and i don't understand why they won't own up to the fact that my car is defective if it is my car's system causing the highly priced abs brake module to go out, it's not just "normal wear and tear." i think my car, as well as ohter pontiacs are defective, and i would like for something to be done about it. thank you.*ak.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1G2JB124XW7.

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 1998 car safety problem was reported on Mar 24, 2003.PONTIAC SUNFIRE 1998, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . march 24, 2003 dear sirs, i recently had a water pump failure on my 1998 sunfire convertible. the car has had a noise from the front of the engine for about a year, i thought it was an alternator bearing. the car has been in a gm dealer twice in that time for oil changes and of all the things the dealer has tried to sell me they never said anything was wrong with the water pump. on the night of friday, march 14th the car began leaking antifreeze and the noise increased. i live in south lyon, mi and the closest pontiac dealer is waldecker in brighton. i attempted to telephone waldecker several times on saturday, march 15th, but did not connect, because of a dead phone line at waldecker. i thought waldecker went out of business, since it is an oldsmobile dealer also. i later found, from the waldecker service manager (larry) and the receptionist, that they were in fact having phone problems for several days. with no other pontiac dealers in the area, i refilled the radiator and took the car to walkers garage, the closest auto repair. the bill came to $700 parts and labor, i asked waldecker and they said it was a fair price. having to take the exhaust manifold off, access through the front cover of the engine, gear drive off the timing chain and the location above the cv joint is a poor design for a serviceable part. vehicle description, 1998 sunfire convertible, currently: 42,000 miles vin# 4g2jb32t5wb206051, 2.4 liter dohc engine. i called the pontiac 1-800 number and a representative told me the warranty was 3 years / 36,000 miles and the work was not performed by a pontiac dealer, so i had no recourse. i explain to no avail why the work was not done at a pontiac dealer. i am hoping you will reconsider this. enclosed is the bill. please contact me even if this claim is rejected. i expect better from the number 1 automate company in the world. sincerely, gordon culver, 28654 danvers ct., south lyon, mi. 48178 phone: 248-437-5582. *nlm .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 42000 miles.

Pontiac Sunfire 1998 Fuel System, Other Review #10058231

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 1998 car safety problem was reported on Dec 29, 2003.PONTIAC SUNFIRE 1998, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER . this concerns the fuel system on '98 (and similar year) pontiac sunfires. on december 29, 2003 this vehicle was taken in for replacement of the in-line fuel filter. the vehicle had been losing acceleration and has 78,000 miles on it. it was taken to a pontiac dealer for the service. the filter is connected to the fuel line with a 'snap' fitting. upon trying to service the filter, either the dealer broke the snap fitting or the previous owner had damaged it (vehicle was purchased with 45,000 miles on it, and there were no leaks so i suspect that it wasn't damaged). also, there was a fair amount of corrosion on and in the fitting. in the end, the filter could not be replaced without correcting the 'snap' fitting. to my surprise the fuel line could not be replaced as a separate piece, you have to purchase the entire fuel delivery module. this cost (with the technician time) was $ 425 vs. $50 for a filter replacement. it would seem to me that since the filter is a critical part of the system (a clogged filter could result in vehicle stalls and/or no starts, emission issues etc.) that it should have some sort of reasonable way to replace it without paying for an entire module that was not needed. the filter is a recommended service item. *ak .Mileage was 78150 miles.

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 1998 car safety problem was reported on Aug 12, 2004.PONTIAC SUNFIRE 1998, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with STEERING:RACK AND PINION:PINION SHAFT . my car makes a clunking noise whenever i turn to the right or left. the first time i had the repair was in 2002 at a pontiac dealership and was covered by warranty. however the problem has returned and i contacted the dealership. they have told me that they only guarantee work done for a year, which leaves me to pay for the repair. i have also contacted gmc and they will not help cover any charges, even though this is the second time i will need this same problem fixed. it seems to me that this "shaft" problem should be taken care of either by the dealership or gmc. by reading the other reports here, it's obvious to me that there are others who are complaining about the same problem. so why hasn't there been a recall? why am i responsible for the payment when it's a manufacturer issue?.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):3G2JB1242WS.

(in otherwords, no change in the beams...) but then when i ever so slightly pull the lever back to go to flash my headlights, the daytime running lights indicator disappears and my headlights brighten to "normal, nighttime brightness, then if i pull lever back towards me even farther, the highbeams come on)... but the problem is... the lever won't stay on either nighttime or high beam modes at all. once i let go of the lever it returns to daytime runninglights, even with the lever twisted all the way to have the headlights on.... i still only get the daytime running lights (drl)... . on occasion the headlights work ok to begin with, but as i am driving the "normal" lights click back off and its only the drl that are on. its very dangerous because the nightime tail lights are not on when the drl are only on. i also have a friend with a 97 pontiac sunfire and she is having the same problem with her drl/ and headlights. i have not yet corrected the problem, and i have researched it on the internet and others seem to be having the same problem. .Pontiac Sunfire 1998 problem was reported in CLINTON, IA.
