2008 Pontiac Grand Prix

TL* THE CONTACTS OWNS A 2008 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MOLDING FOR THREE PASSENGER DOORS WARPED. THE FAILURE PERSISTED FOR THREE YEARS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE MOLDING FOR ALL PASSENGERS DOORS NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I HAVE HAD MY CAR 2YRS NOW AND MY PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT STILL DOESN'T COME ON ALL TIME WHEN MY FIANCEE SITS ON MY FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF MY CAR. MY FIANCEE IS LITTLE AND ONLY WEIGH ABOUT 125LBS BUT I AM GETTING FRUSTRATED WITH CONSTANTLY TURNING THE CAR ON AND OFF AND MAKING HER GET IN AND OUT OFF THE CAR UNTIL THE SENSOR READS THAT SHE IS IN THE SEAT. WHEN MY BOTHER AND I SIT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE THE AIRBAG IS LIGHT COMES ON FIRST TRY. MY BROTHER AND I BOTH WEIGH 250+ AND I'M STARTING TO THINK IT MAY HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE AMOUNT OF WEIGHT IN THE SEAT FOR THE SENSOR TO PICK UP. PLEASE HELP TO RESOLVE THIS BECAUSE I AM AFRAID THAT IF I EVER HAVE A WRECK AND MY FIANCEE IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THE AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY. *TR

I DRIVE A 2008 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX. I HAVE DRIVEN IT FOR SEVEN OR EIGHT YEARS. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE BUT I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE ONE NOTICE OF A RECALL. IN JUNE 2014, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHUT DOWN ON MY CAR WITHOUT WARNING AT ONE OF THE BUSIEST INTERSECTIONS IN GREENVILLE, MS. AS A RESULT OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHUTTING DOWN I WAS LEFT WITHOUT AIR, OPERATIVE WINDOW AND DOORS, NEITHER AN OPERATIVE HORN NOR EMERGENCY FLASHERS. IT HAPPENED DURING THE HOTTEST PART OF THE DAY AND MY CAR WAS FACING THE SUN. I WAS TRAPPED IN THE CAR FOR ABOUT THIRTY MINUTES AND I CAME VERY CLOSE TO SUFFOCATING! IT WAS A VERY TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCE FOR ME THOUGH I SUSTAINED NO PHYSICAL INJURIES. MY WINDOW HAD TO BE BROKEN IN ORDER FOR ME TO BE REMOVED FROM THE CAR. I AM NO LONGER COMFORTABLE DRIVING MY CAR AS I NEVER CAN TELL WHEN THIS MIGHT OCCUR AGAIN. *TR
