Consumer Description

I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW 2006 SPICE RED METALLIC PONTIAC GTO ON JUNE 30, 2006. TWO DAYS LATER WHILE BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY I NOTICED TWO SMALL PUDDLES OF OIL LOCATED NEXT TO EACH FRONT TIRE WHILE IT WAS PARKED. I NOTIFIED MY DEALER AND IT WAS CHECKED AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT BOTH FRONT STRUTS WERE DAMAGED EITHER THROUGH SHIPPING OR JUST BAD EQUIPMENT FROM THE FACTORY. THE DEALER ORDERED NEW STRUTS BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED THEM AS OF YET. *NM
