Pontiac Vibe Visibility Power Window Devices And Controls Safety Report | Aug 15, 2009
Reported on Aug 15, 2009
| FOR THE SECOND TIME NOW, THE FRONT DRIVER & PASSENGER SIDE WINDOWS OF MY 2005 PONTIAC VIBE FAIL TO GO UP AND DOWN (HOLDING CLIP FAILED). THE WINDOWS GET COCKED WHEN TRYING TO LOWER/RAISE. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED IT (NEW) AND HAD IT REPAIRED AT THE DEALER (UNDER WARRANTY). IT HAS HAPPENED A SECOND TIME, APPROXIMATELY 4 YEARS LATER. I NOTICED THERE WERE RECALLS ISSUED FOR THIS VERY SAME ISSUE ON 2003 & 2004 PONTIAC VIBES, BUT NOTHING FOR 2005 VIBES (EVEN THOUGH I BELIEVE THE ISSUE IS THE SAME FOR 2005 VIBES AS IT WAS FOR 2003 & 2004 MODEL YEARS - THE SOLUTION WAS REPLACEMENT WITH A STRONGER CLIP). *TR | |
