problem #2

GTO 8-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 53,000 miles
My vehicle has had the front brakes replaced twice in the 30,000 miles that I have put on the car. Under hard breaking the vibration and pulsating is so unnerving that I wonder if the car is going to fly off the chasis. I know numerous people on the GTO websites that have had similar problems.

problem #1

GTO 8-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 15,589 miles
My car has had numerous electrical problems which have been reported to the manufacturer. My main concern is an issue with the traction control/ABS that causes the car to show an error light and disable both the traction and ABS systems. The car has been to 2 Pontiac dealerships regarding the issue, it has been looked at 4 or 5 times, and there still has been no resolution. The manufacturer is refusing to buy the car back despite the failure of a touted safety system. The error occurs nearly every time I drive the vehicle, so the "number of failures" count is an estimate.
