Consumer Description
2006 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 34,200 MILES ON IT. BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHT ON, ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) LIGHT ON. TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ON, SERVICE BRAKE/ABS/TRACTION/STABILITY MESSAGE DISPLAYED. THIS HAPPENED ALL AT ONCE THIS MORNING, CAR FELT LIKE IT DIDN'T WANT TO STOP. NO WARNING! I ONLY COMMUTE 10 MILES TO WORK EACH DAY WITH THIS VEHICLE. THIS SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING WITH A FAIRLY NEW CAR RIGHT? TRADED MY CAMRY FOR THIS CAR. TRIED TO STAY AMERICAN!!! I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO STATE THAT I HAD TROUBLE STOPPING, WHEN TRYING TO TURN A CORNER AND APPLY BRAKE. (JUST TWO DAYS AGO) FELT LIKE A KNOCKING UNDER BRAKE PEDAL. LOOKING BACK I WONDER IF THIS COULD BE RELATED. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW, FROM IN YORK, PA. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR, AND I DON'T SEE HOW THIS PROBLEM IS RELATED TO EVERYDAY USE. I FEEL CHEATED AND UNSAFE. *TR
