problem #2

Jan 072007

Sunfire 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 121,010 miles
Received 02V286000) for defective steering. I could not safely drive car. Pontiac told me if the part they replacedwas also defective they were not obligated to fix it past 3 months or 3,000 miles. That did not seem right. If they replaced the original defective part with another defective part shouldn't they have to fix it?
