OTHER DEFECTS INCLUDE RADIO DISPLAY LIGHTS FAIL ON 2 RADIOS, SEATBELTS AND STEERING WHEEL BECOME TOO HOT IN SUMMER BRAKE PADS WEAR UNEVENLY,,,, FUEL PUMPS GO OUT OFTEN. *TR

I HAD THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED ON THIS VEHICLE IN DECEMBER 2006. I HAVE BEEN GIVEN INFORMATION INDICATING THIS PUMP IS IN THE SUSPECT GROUP OF PUMPS COVERED BY THE DELPHI RECALL NUMBER 07E-015. I CONTACTED THE NUMBER LISTED, AND WAS TOLD THAT SINCE SOMEONE ELSE HAD ENTERED INFORMATION ON THE VIN THAT THEY WILL NOT TELL ME ANYTHING. THEY REFUSED TO TELL ME HOW TO HAVE THE INSPECTION OR REIMBURSEMENT DONE. THIS VEHICLE WAS WRECKED BY MY DAUGHTER IN MARCH 2006, AND THERE IS AN ONGOING INVESTIGATION OF THE ABS SYSTEM ALSO.*AK

NOT ONLY DID MY AIR BAGS CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. MY FUEL SYSTEM IS HAS MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH IT. I HAVE SPENT SO MUCH MONEY TRYING TO GET THESE RECALLS FIXED. I HAVE LOST MY JOB OVER MY CAR AND IS ABOUT TO LOSE EVERY THING ELSE IF I CAN NOT GET BACK TO WORK. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER OF 3 GIRLS AND IS UNABLE TO SPEND ALL THIS MONEY ON A VEHICLE WITH PROBLEMS. THAT ARE THE FACTORY'S FAULT NOT MINE. DT

THE AIRBAGS HAVE FAILED TO DEPLOY ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS AND I HAVE STATEMENTS PROVING THEY SHOULD OF. THE FUEL INJECTORS DAMAGED IN THE ACCIDENT WERE FIXED BY NEWBY AUTO 2 WEEKS LATER THEY WERE BROKEN AGAIN THEY REFUSED TO REDO THEM SAYING IT WASN'T THE SAME ONE THEY FIXED. THEY ALSO REFUSED TO ADD AN AIRBAG CHECK ONTO THE ESTIMATE SAYING THERE WASNT ENOUGH DAMAGE TO DEPLOY THEM I HAVE TWO OTHER ESTIMATES TOTALLING MY CAR THEY REFUSED TO LOOK AT THEM AND INSISTED IT WAS OK AND THEY WOULD FIX IT UNFORTUALLY THEY DID NOT AND IT HAS HAD MANY PROBLEMS SINCE. NEWBY AUTO A PONTIAC DEALERSHIP WAS LOCATED IN RICHFIELD UTAH AT THE TIME THEY HAD MY CAR THEY ARE NO LONGER IN BUSINESS IN RICHFIELD.

VEHICLE HAD A GAS ODOR. FOR PAST WEEK ODOR BECAME VERY STRONG. CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP, WHO FOUND THAT THE FUEL INJECTOR IN THE #2 CYLINDER WAS LEAKING. SPARK FROM CYLINDER COULD HAVE STARTED A FIRE. AS PER DEALER, THIS WAS A "FIRE HAZARD, " AND WOULD NOT START ENGINE. MANFACTURER HAS ADVISED CONSUMER THAT REPAIRS WILL NOT BE COVERED. *AK

THE CAR HAS HAD MULIPLE PROBLEMS BEGINNING WITH THE REPLACEMENT OF THE HORN IN 1997. MANY OF THE SENSORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES, THE PARKING BRAKE STILL DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY, AND I HAVE REPLACED MANY MAJOR PARTS ON THE CAR. PONTIAC FLATLY REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT MY PROBLEMS, THEY HAVE ONLY OFFERED COURTESY TRANSPORTATION AFTER ENGAGING IN A SHOUTING MATCH & ALL THEY KNOW HOW TO SAY IS "SORRY, YOUR OUT OF YOUR MANUFACTURES WARRANTY & WE DO NOT PROVIDE THAT INFORMATION" I HAVE RECEIVED THE WORST SERVICE YOU CAN POSSIBLY IMAGINE. IT HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP AT LEAST 9 TIMES IN UNDER TWO YEARS!
