PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005 Electrical System Ignition Report #10098030

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005 car safety problem was reported on Sept 10, 2004.PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION . FATAL FLAW. THE VEHICLE I AM SPEAKING OF IS A PONTIAC SUNFIRE POSSIBLY 2005 MODEL YEAR. I HAD RENTED IT FROM A RENTAL COMPANY AND USED IT FOR ABOUT A MONTH. DURING THE USE THERE WERE A COUPLE OF INCIDENTS WHERE I WOULD REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION THINKING THE CAR WAS OFF BUT COME BACK AN HOUR LATER TO FIND OUT THAT THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING. I DIDN'T REALLY CARE ABOUT THIS BUT I WAS WATCHING ON NEWS AND FOUND OUT THAT AN ENTIRE FAMILY OF 6 HAD DIED BECAUSE OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING. SO THIS SIMPLE POSSIBLE DEFECT OF THE PONTIAC COULD BE FATAL. I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS A DEFECT FOR ALL PONTIAC SUNFIRES BUT IT SHOULD BE CHECKED OUT BECAUSE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DEATH. *JB.Pontiac Sunfire 2005 problem was reported in MIAMI, FL.

PONTIAC SUNFIRE Vehicle Speed Control Cruise Control

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005 Vehicle Speed Control Cruise Control Report #10142378

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005 car safety problem was reported on Nov 04, 2005.PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:CRUISE CONTROL . WHILE DRIVING WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON IN A REMOTE AREA OF UTAH (BETWEEN MILFORD AND MINERSVILLE) I RAN OVER A CATTLE GUARD RUNNING ACROSS THE ROAD. IMMEDIATELY, MY GAS PEDAL DROPPED TO THE FLOOR AND ATTEMPTED TO GAIN MAXIMUM SPEED. SEVERAL STEPS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL FINALLY DISENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL. IF THIS HAD HAPPENED IN A HIGH VOLUME TRAFFIC AREA, OR IN THE NEARBY S-TURNS GOING THROUGH THE CANYON, THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR WORSE. FORTUNATELY THE EVENT ONLY LASTED A FEW SECONDS AND MANAGED TO SCARE THE CRAP OUT OF ME. I KNOW I HAD NO PART IN CAUSING THIS BECAUSE AT THE MOMENT I WAS RESTING MY FEET AND NEITHER FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKES OR GAS PEDAL. UNKNOWN IF THIS WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN BECAUSE I REFUSED TO USE THE CRUISE CONTROL ANY MORE DURING MY TRIP. THIS WAS A RENTAL CAR WITH APX 27,500 MILES ON IT. *NM.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 27300 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):3G2JB12F75S.

PONTIAC SUNFIRE Electrical System Instrument Panel

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005 Electrical System Instrument Panel Report #10219774

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005 car safety problem was reported on Feb 29, 2008.PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT PANEL . SPEEDOMETER FAILURE- ONE DAY, I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON A RESIDENTIAL ROAD ABOUT 35 MPH AND NOTICED THAT MY SPEEDOMETER WAS REGISTERING 80 MPH. THIS CAME TO A GREAT SHOCK TO ME. I ATTEMPTED TO SHUT OFF THE IGNITION TO SEE IF THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD RESET AND IT DIDN'T. ALSO, THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD NOT RETURN TO 0 MPH- IT ONLY DROPPED TO ABOUT 65MPH. I SEARCHED 2005 PONTIAC SUNFIRE SPEEDOMETER AND 2005 CHEVROLET CAVALIER SPEEDOMETER IN GOOGLE AND HAVE FOUND MANY BLOG POSTINGS ON AUTOMOTIVE WEBSITES ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE WITH AN INACCURATE SPEEDOMETER AND/OR GAUGE CLUSTER MALFUNCTION. THIS ISSUE ALSO SEEMS TO EXTEND BEYOND THE SUNFIRE/CAVALIER MODELS TO OTHER GM VEHICLES BACK TO 1993. MY CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000 MILES ON IT AND WHILE I HAVE BEEN OUT OF THE WARRANTY BASED ON THE MILEAGE FOR SOME TIME, IF I HAD NOT EXCEEDED THE MILEAGE RESTRICTION, I WOULD HAVE JUST PASSED THE 3 YEAR MARK ON DEC. 12, 2007. IT SEEMS THAT MANY OTHER SUNFIRE/CAVALIER AND GM PRODUCT OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE FIRST EXPERIENCED THE ISSUE JUST OUTSIDE OF THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY PERIOD. THERE ARE CURRENTLY LAW SUITS PENDING AGAINST GM TO PAY FOR SPEEDOMETER REPAIRS. ONE POSTER ON THE CAR BLOG SAID THAT WHEN HE SAW HIS SPEEDOMETER READ 65 MPH ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET HE QUICKLY HIT HIS BRAKES AND IF ANYONE HAD BEEN BEHIND HIM, IT WOULD HAVE CAUSED A CRASH. FOR THIS REASON, I BELIEVE THAT THIS DEFECTIVE SPEEDOMETER ISSUE COULD CAUSE A SAFETY HAZARD. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 55620 miles.

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005 Electrical System Instrument Panel Report #10264748

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005 car safety problem was reported on Mar 31, 2005.PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT PANEL . ONLY ROUTINE DRIVING PRECEDED THIS INCIDENT. THE TACHOMETER AND SPEEDOMETER ON MY 2005 PONTIAC SUNFIRE BEGAN TO ACT ERRATIC PRIOR TO 33,000 MILES. AT ~34,500 MILES THE TACHOMETER COMPLETELY FAILED IN A POSITION WHICH PREVENTED THE SPEEDOMETER FROM FUNCTIONING (THE SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE WAS HELD DOWN BY THE TACHOMETER NEEDLE). THIS WAS A TREMENDOUS SAFETY CONCERN ESPECIALLY SINCE MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THIS APPEARS TO BE AN ALL TOO COMMON PROBLEM FOR SEVERAL LATE MODEL GM VEHICLES AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY CONCERN SINCE IT PREVENTS THE PROPER OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE AND CAN DISTRACT THE DRIVER. I CAN¿T IMAGINE THAT A SPEEDOMETER FAILURE WOULD NOT REPRESENT A SAFETY DEFECT AND WARRANT ACTION. I HAVE HAD THE INSTRUMENT PANEL REPLACED AT THE DEALER. I CONTACTED PONTIAC CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY APPEAR TO ONLY LOG COMPLAINTS. I WAS INFORMED THAT RECALLS OF THIS NATURE WERE BASED ON CONSUMER COMPLAINTS REGARDLESS OF HOW MANY OF THE SPECIFIC PART THEY KNOW THEY HAVE REPLACED. THAT IS CRAZY ¿ IF THEY KNOW THAT A LARGE NUMBER OF A CERTAIN PART IS FAILING THEY SHOULD REPLACE IT WITHOUT WAITING FOR THE ISSUE TO MANIFEST ITSELF IN AN ACCIDENT. IN ADDITION, THE DRIVER SIDE ELECTRIC WINDOW IS ALSO NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY - WHICH ALSO APPEARS TO BE OCCURRING IN SEVERAL GM MODELS. THIS IS ALSO A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE IT COULD PREVENT THE OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE FROM EXITING IT IN AN EMERGENCY. GM IS AWARE THAT THIS IS A WORKMANSHIP/MATERIAL QUALITY ISSUE. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 34500 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):3G2JB12F25S.

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005 car safety problem was reported on Mar 18, 2010.PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . MY HUSBAND AND I PURCHASED A 2005 PONTIAC SUNFIRE IN 2006. IT HAD 13,000 MILES AT THAT TIME AND HAD BEEN A REALLY RELIABLE CAR. MY HUSBAND HAS CHANGED THE OIL AND FILTER ON A REGULAR SCHEDULE AS WELL AS THE AIR FILTER. IT STILL GETS 33 MPG ON THE FREEWAY AND THE MILEAGE WAS ABOUT 68,000 WHEN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER STARTED TO GO BAD. IF THE GAUGES HADN'T STARTED TO MALFUNCTION ABOUT 6-8 MONTHS AGO I WOULD HAVE NO COMPLAINTS. THE VEHICLE'S TEMPERATURE GAUGE STARTED CLIMBING OFF THE CHARTS ONE DAY WHEN WE WERE ABOUT FORTY MILES FROM HOME. WE WE DRIVING 65 MPH. ON THE FREEWAY WHEN IT STARTED. WE PULLED OFF AS SOON AS WE COULD TO CHECK THE MOTOR AND FOUND THAT IT WAS NOT OVERHEATED AT ALL AND WE HAD NO LEAKS IN SIGHT. I FEEL VERY BLESSES THAT NO ONE WAS INJURED. WITH IN A MONTH THE GAUGE EVENTUALLY SPUN ALL THE WAY AROUND AND STARTED EFFECTING THE TACHOMETER. NOW THE SPEEDOMETER IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY BECAUSE OF THE TACHOMETER. IF THE CLUSTER HAD BEEN DESIGNED WITH A BUMPER PIN TO STOP THE GAUGES FROM MAKING A COMPLETE 360 ROTATION, IT MIGHT HAVE NOT BURNED OUT SO SOON. OUR TEMPERATURE GAUGE HAS MADE ABOUT 3 OR 4 REVOLUTIONS SO FAR MAKING THE OTHER GAUGES EVEN MORE INACCURATE. THE TACHOMETER IS ON IT'S SECOND TRIP AROUND THE GAUGE SO WE KNOW THE SPEEDOMETER IS NOT FAR BEHIND. WE ARE VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH OUR CHOICE AT THIS TIME AND ARE CONSIDERING A DIFFERENT MANUFACTURE FOR OUR NEXT VEHICLE. MY FATHER WAS A DIESEL MECHANIC FOR FIFTY YEARS AND HE ALWAYS INSTILLED ON ME TO BUY AMERICAN WHEN IT CAME TO MY CARS. I ALWAYS HAVE AND DON'T PLAN TO CHANGE THAT BUT, I WILL DO MORE RESEARCH NEXT TIME. THIS PROBLEM WAS POSTED ON EVERY WEB SIGHT I FOUND AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR YEARS. IT'S TIME TO BE MORE CAUTIOUS..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 67800 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):3G2JB12F55S.

PONTIAC SUNFIRE Vehicle Speed Control

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005 Vehicle Speed Control Report #10397708

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005 car safety problem was reported on Jan 20, 2011.PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . I PURCHASED MY 2005 PONTIAC SUNFIRE IN SEPTEMBER OF 2005. I BOUGHT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WHICH EXPIRED AT 75000 MILES. MY SPEEDOMETER GOES DOWN TO ZERO WHEN DRIVING. THE SPEEDOMETER WILL START WORKING AGAIN AFTER THE CAR SITS FOR A FEW HOURS; HOWEVER, NOW THE SPEEDOMETER WILL NOT WORK AT ALL IF THE CAR HAS BEEN SITTING OUTSIDE IN THE HEAT. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO BE DRIVING AND NOT KNOW WHAT SPEED YOU ARE GOING. FOR THE LAST THREE DAYS AFTER WORKING ALL DAY, I GO OUT AND START MY CAR AND THE SPEEDOMETER IS STUCK BELOW ZERO SO I HAVE TO DRIVE HOME ON THE FREEWAY NOT KNOWING WHAT SPEED I AM DRIVING. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND GM SHOULD BE MADE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. AFTER RESEARCHING ON THE INTERNET I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR SEVERAL YEARS. I TRADED IN A FOREIGN CAR TO BUY MY SUNFIRE AND NOW I AM REGRETTING THAT DECISION. I NO LONGER HAVE FAITH IN GM VEHICLES. I HAVE NOT TAKEN THE CAR INTO A DEALER BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN OFF WORK FOR 3 MONTHS DUE TO BACK SURGERY SO I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO PAY FOR REPAIRS THAT GM SHOULD BE TAKING CARE OF ANYWAY..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 93000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):3G2JB12F35S. Pontiac Sunfire 2005 problem was reported in INDIANAPOLIS, IN. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 50 mph.

OWN A 2005 PONTIAC SUNFIRE AND THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IS FAILING. IT STARTED A MONTH AFTER MY VEHICLE WENT OUT OF WARRANTY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID, "OH YOUR CAR IS NOT REALLY OVERHEATING AND IT WILL COST TOO MUCH TO FIX IT, ESTIMATING OVER $800"--THERE SUGGESTION WAS TO JUST LEAVE IT BECAUSE I SHOULD KNOW WHEN MY CAR IS REALLY OVERHEATING. SINCE THEN BOTH THE GAS GAUGE AND TEMPERATURE GAUGE WILL GET STUCK IN EXTREMELY HOT WEATHER OR ERRATICALLY GO AROUND IN CIRCLES LIKE THE HANDS ON A CLOCK. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD AND GM SHOULD REALLY CONSIDER FIXING IT CONSIDERING ALL THE TESTIMONIES THAT ARE LISTED ON THE INTERNET OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005 car safety problem was reported on Mar 24, 2014.PONTIAC SUNFIRE 2005, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . ALL GAUGES IN THE VEHICLE HAVE STOPPED WORKING (I.E. SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER, FUEL, AND TEMP GAUGES). TOLD THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH PONTIAC SUNFIRE MODELS FROM YEARS 2003-2005. ALSO, WITH THE CHEVROLET CAVALIER 2003-2005, WHICH IS BASICALLY THE SAME CAR. GM CHANGED SUPPLIERS FOR THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FOR THESE YEARS. INSTRUMENT FAILURE IS CAUSED BY THE INFERIOR PARTS USED BY GM, AND IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. ONE CAN NOT BLAME INSTRUMENT FAILURE ON A LACK OF MAINTENANCE OF THE VEHICLE ON THE OWNER. ESPECIALLY ON A VEHICLE THAT TRAVELS ROUGHLY 5,000 MILES A YEAR. SUCH AN ISSUE IS THE FAULT OF THE MANUFACTURER, AND THEIR USE OF SUB-PAR MATERIALS. HAVE CHECKED FUSES, AND HAD THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CHECKED (I.E. IT'S NOT A SHORT TO GROUND PROBLEM). THESE ARE NOT THE RESULT OF THE GAUGES FAILING. TOLD THE COST WOULD BE OVER $500 FOR A NEW INSTRUMENT GAUGE CLUSTER. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL BY GM FOR THIS KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 41312 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):3G2JB12F75S. Pontiac Sunfire 2005 problem was reported in ALLISON PARK, PA. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 0 mph.
