NHTSA Complaint #10496130 — 2005 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX

MY 2005 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX GXP WOULD OFTEN LOSE SPEED IN CURVES, CLIMBING HILLS, OR AT HIGH RATES OF SPEED. I TOOK IT TO A GM DEALER AND WAS DIAGNOSED WITH TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. I WAS QUOTED ONE PRICE FOR TRANSMISSION, LABOR, AND RADIATOR REPLACEMENTS, BUT ENDED UP PAYING OVER $4000. GWATNEY IN NORTH LITTLE ROCK, AR HAS A HORRIBLE SERVICE STAFF. THEY WERE NOT WILLING TO WORK OUT A DEAL EVEN AFTER INFORMING THEM I WAS QUOTED A DIFFERENT PRICE. THEY THREATENED TO CHARGE ME ADDITIONAL STORAGE FEES IF I DIDN'T PICK UP MY CAR. I EVENTUALLY PAID, BUT I WROTE IN DISPUTE OF PRICE ON THE RECEIPT. HERE I AM 9 MONTHS LATER WITH THE SAME PROBLEM! GO FIGURE. *TR
