PONTIAC TRANS AM 1995 Tires Sidewall Report #10080852
PONTIAC TRANS AM 1995 car safety problem was reported on June 19, 2004.PONTIAC TRANS AM 1995, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with TIRES:SIDEWALL . THE PURPOSE TO THIS LETTER IS TO ADVISE YOU OF AN INCIDENT THAT OCCURRED SATURDAY JUNE 19, 2004. WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 80 AT 65 MPH, I EXPERIENCED A FRIGHTENING ENCOUNTER. I HEARD A LOUD POP AND IMMEDIATELY THE REAR RIGHT OF MY CAR BEGAN TO SWAY AND I ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OFF THE ROAD ONTO THE EMERGENCY LANE, TO FIND A VERY SURPRISINGLY STRANGE TIRE BLOW OUT. THE ENTIRE SIDEWALL OF MY 285/35/18 NITTO NT555 COLLAPSED, AND WAS PUSHED IN TOWARD THE REAR SIDEWALL CAUSING MAJOR DAMAGES TO MY 18 Z06 WHEEL. I HAVE NEVER SEEN A SIDEWALL COMPLETELY BLOW OUT AND DETACH ITSELF FROM THE TIRE, LET ALONE FROM NORMAL USE. THIS TIRE APPEARED AS IF A KNIFE WAS TAKEN TO IT AND SEVERED OFF. DAMAGES SUFFERED TO THE RIM, AS A RESULT OF THIS INCIDENT ARE SO EXTENSIVE THAT REPAIRS ARE NOT AN OPTION. A REPLACEMENT RIM WILL NEED TO BE PURCHASED, AS WELL AS THE NEW NITTO TIRE. THE DEFECTIVE TIRE CURRENTLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 90-95% TREAD WEAR LEFT, WHICH IS THE REASON WHY I AM ASKING FOR NITTO CORP. TO COMPENSATE MY LOSSES. ENCLOSED PLEASE REVIEW THE PHOTOGRAPHS THAT WERE TAKEN ON SITE, AND PROCESS THIS REQUEST FOR REIMBURSEMENT. I AM FORTUNATE ENOUGH THAT THIS MISHAP CAUSED BY YOUR DEFECTIVE TIRE DID NOT RESULT IN DAMAGES EXCEEDING THE ONES THAT OCCURRED. I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR PROMPT RESPONSE. ENCLOSED IS ALSO A PRICE QUOTE ON A REPLACEMENT RIM. THE RIM PRICE IS $315, FROM AAA RIMS. THIS QUOTE WAS OBTAINED THROUGH JASON, AN AAA RIM REPRESENTATIVE THE MORNING OF 7/21/2004. THE TIRE HAS BEEN SHIPPED OFF TO TOYO TIRES INC. I ALSO FILED A CLAIM WITH TM CLAIM SERVICE, WHICH IS TOYO TIRES INSURANCE COMPANY. THE TIRE WAS SHIPPED OFF FOR INSPECTION, AND TWO WEEKS LATER I AM STILL WAITING FOR A RESPONSE. I ALSO HAVE PICTURES THAT WERE TAKEN ONSITE, AND VARIOUS OTHERS. THANK YOU P.S OLD PARTS ARE STILL AVAILABLE. *LA.Mileage was 43600 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2G2FV22P6S2. Pontiac Trans Am 1995 problem was reported in SAN FRANCISCO, CA.

PONTIAC TRANS AM 1995 Electrical System Wiring Report #10112096
PONTIAC TRANS AM 1995 car safety problem was reported on Jan 01, 2003.PONTIAC TRANS AM 1995, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING . OUR PROBLEM CONCERNS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. WHEN WE PURCHASED THE CAR ALMOST 4 YEARS AGO WE NOTICED THE TAILLIGHTS WERE LEAKING. THEY HAD CORRODED THE TAIL LIGHTS AND THEY SHORTED OUT. THIS CAR WAS BARELY 7 YEARS OLD AND HAD NO WORKING TAIL LIGHTS. WE BROUGHT THIS UP TO GM AS IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND A DEFAULT OF A FAULTY TAIL LIGHT AND THEY TOLD US THEY HAVE A SPECIAL GLUE MAN THAT WORKS THROUGH GM AND HE WILL COME OUT AND GLUE THE SEAL BUT REFUSED TO REPAIR THE LIGHTS. WE WERE ANGRY ABOUT THIS BUT HAD THEM SEND THE MAN OUT TO DO THE REPAIR. IT DID NOT WORK AND WE TOLD GM THIS AND THEY TOLD US THEY WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR NEW TAILLIGHTS AND HAVE THE ELECTRICAL FIXED THERE AND THE COST WOULD BE OVER 1,000 DOLLARS. WE WERE VERY ANGRY AND HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET HELP WITH THIS SAFETY ISSUE. WE PURCHASED ANOTHER VEHICLE MEANWHILE A TOYOTA CRESSIDA AND THERE IS NO PROBLEMS WITH THOSE TAILLIGHTS EVEN WITH THE AGE OF THE BEING OVER DOUBLE THAN THE TRANSAM. THE TAILLIGHTS DO NOT WORK. THE SIGNALS DON'T WORK AS THEY CANNOT BECAUSE OF THE ELECTRICAL SHORT. WE ARE NOT GOING TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT IS OBVIOUSLY A FAULT IN GMS WORK. WE WANT TO KNOW WHAT WE CAN DO. *NM.Mileage was 17000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2G2FV22P1S2. Pontiac Trans Am 1995 problem was reported in ABBOTSFORD, 00.

Pontiac Trans Am 1995 Reviews
1992 Pontiac Bonneville had Battery stolen& all cables cut. Have My 1992 Pontiac Bonneville had (the week before Xmas) the Battery stolen& the thieves cut all the cables to it. I have since re-installed the needed cable terminals & new Battery. When turning the key in the ignition, all light HELP.....my 2006 G6 sometimes it doesnt want to turn on if i hit the gas it"ll start but not without a problem I have a Pontiac Grand Prix, 2006 model. I recently hit a deer that was dead in the road. My car just quit. It turns over but won't start. It seems as if it isn't getting any gas. Someone told me it might have a safety feature that keeps the gas f my 2007 vibe drivers seat height will not stay in the highest position. After a day or two I have to crank it up again. Why won't it stay up? GM replaced the seat and it is doing the same thing... Anyone else have this frustrating issue? HOW IMPORTANT IS IT FOR 1985 GTV6 FIERO TO HAVE CRUISE CONTROL. DOES THIS AFFECT PRICE AND IMPORTANT FEATURE IN SELLING THIS VEHICLE? Started sputtering & check engine light flashed for a bit then went off. Still sputters but the warning light hasn't reappeared. ALL EXTERIOR LIGHTS WORK, EXCEPT FOR HEAD LIGHTS. ALSO, HORN DOES NOT WORK Check brake fluid level & all the brake lights. Especially the one in the back window. what would cause my 2006 g6 not to shift into overdrive I bought my '03 Vibe almost three years ago. When I purchased it from a private owner it was gorgeous but within the first six months of ownership a bubble developed in the clear coat of the paint on the back left next to the rear window. It qui my 2004 pontica vibe steering wheel vibrates or shakes when going 70 mph or above. It's not the tires or wheels, and suggestions? I think it may have to do with the brakes.
re-installed cable terminals & new Battery since. All lights turn on
(incl radio); turning key in ignition does not engage the Starter&
fails to start vehicle
also when i hit the gas it makes a weird kinda grinding noise....anyone have any ideas?
