problem #2

Jan 082005

Montana 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 88,852 miles
The door comes unlatched from the Pontiac Montana mini vans w/O power slider also. Subsequently my van door passanger side came open slamming off half on the road and then remained attached to the top but the track wheel snapped off, making it inpossible to put on with out tools and the muscles to even lift it.

problem #1

Jun 182004

Montana 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 63,000 miles
SRS bag light steadily on and seat belt light man on dash chimes for no reason and blinks on/off. Took in to Pontiac 6/18/04, they fixed wiring harness that day (unclear on invoice) we just bought the vehicle in May 2004. A few weeks later we had the same problem and took it back in, just to hear that it was a cluster this time, they claim they're were toys under the seat and a plug was broken but the only toys in there were little hot wheels. So, they put in a new cluster and here we are three weeks later and I am still having the same problem with the seat belt man light and the SRS bag light on the dash. Pontiac will look at it again, they say, but I cannot see that one part after another needing to be replaced every two weeks and the outcome is always the same with the same item defaulting(seat belt guy light/SRS air bag light on dash stays on).
