I purchased a 2006 Pontiac GTO and its been in the shop ever since. I now have replaced the tires twice and the car only has 38K miles, im a lady driver never abusing the car. The inside tires in the front are chewed down to the wire after a 600 mile trip noticed a sound, thank god they both didn't go out, my family would have been killed in such a wreck! something needs to be done, this car has been faulty from day one, and the manufacturer has to be threatened with a lawsuit every time I take it in and they still wont fix the simplest problems. I think they don't want to admit there is a problem.

GTO 8-cyl

The front struts on my car broke, and leaked fluid all over. The dealer said I was responsible however, and made me repair them even though I did not break them. Looking into this issue, I found out that this car has horrendous issues with their struts, which are defective. Even though the struts are defective, however they have not issued a recall, and the dealer has made me pay to fix them twice. The struts failed on two separate occasions. This could be a seriously dangerous problem, in regards to handling of the car, and car dealers across the country I have found out are telling people it is safe to drive the vehicle while replacement parts are available, which has been taking months.
