Pontiac Vibe Vehicle Speed Control Safety Report | Apr 22, 2010
Reported on Apr 22, 2010
| TODAY I HAD THE GAS-PEDAL RECALL PERFORMED ON MY 2009 PONTIAC VIBE. I IMMEDIATELY NOTICED IT REQUIRES MUCH LESS EFFORT TO DEPRESS THE PEDAL - SO MUCH LESS, IN FACT, THAT I CONSIDER IT DANGEROUS. I GOT OUT OF MY CAR AND COMPLAINED TO A SERVICE MANAGER ABOUT THIS. HE SAID THEY HAD DONE THE REPAIR EXACTLY AS THE INSTRUCTIONS CALLED FOR AND THERE WAS NOTHING MORE THEY COULD DO. I FEEL THAT PONTIAC DEALERSHIPS SHOULD REPLACE THE ENTIRE PEDAL ASSEMBLY FOR THOSE OF US COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS, JUST AS IS BEING DONE BY TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS WITH THE MATRIX. AFTER ALL, IT'S ESSENTIALLY THE SAME CAR. *TR | |
