Consumer Description

I HAD THE TIRES OF MY PONTIAC G6 ROTATED AND DISCOVERED THAT I HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES. THE LEFT REAR OUTBOARD IS NEARLY METAL ON METAL. IT HAS WORN IN SUCH A PATTERN THAT CAN NOT BE EXPLAINED BY USE. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 22,000 MILES. THE MECHANIC FEELS IT IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT IN EITHER THE CALIBERS OR THE ROTOR. UPON DOING SOME RESEARCH, I HAVE DISCOVERED THOUSANDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS FOR G6 VEHICLES WITH LESS THAN 20,000 MILES. APPARENTLY, PONTIAC IS FIGHTING WARRANTY CLAIMS AND REFUSING TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM. *TR
