Consumer Description

TIRE/STRUT RUB - TOOK 2005 GTO WITH 24000 MILES TO THE LOCAL DEALER TO FIX A LEAK ON THE FRONT SEAL OF THE TRANSMISSION, AND WAS INFORMED WHEN I WENT TO PICK UP THE CAR THAT THE LEFT FRONT DRIVER'S TIRE WAS GETTING BALD ON THE INNER SIDE, AND THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER TIRE WAS DOWN TO THE BELT AND COULD BLOWOUT AT ANY TIME. DROVE IT STRAIGHT HOME AND LOOKED AT THE TIRES AND COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT I SAW. UPON AN INTERNET SEARCH FOUND NUMEROUS OTHER GTO OWNERS WITH THE SAME TIRE/STRUT RUB, ESPECIALLY WITH THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER TIRE. GM NEEDED TO ACKNOWLEDGE T AND FIX THIS PROBLEM NOW! THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS AND SERIOUS PROBLEM AND GM WAS LUCKY THAT THIS WAS CAUGHT BEFORE ANYONE WAS KILLED. THIS NEEDED TO BE TAKEN CARE OF NOW!! *AK
