NHTSA Complaint #10651346 — 2006 PONTIAC G6

TOOK MY CAR TO DEALER FOR RECALL 141152--AFTER I WAITED ALONG TIME FOR PARTS. RECALL-13036--COMPLETED THEY CLAIM RECALL--14116---CLAIMS AT FIRST--PARTS NOT AVAILABLE--OOPS THEN LATER HE CLAIMS HE FOUND SOME IN THE BACK! RECALL--14152---COMPLETED THEY CLAIM WHEN WE DROVE THE CAR OFF THE LOT IT STILL HAD SHIFT PROBLEM----LATER FOUND OUT THE TRANSMISSION PAN WAS LEAKING, TOOK CAR AND HAD FLUIDS RE-DONE AT JIFFY LUBE. AS THE DAYS WENT ON THE CAR WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR--IT WAS UNDRIVEABLE IN 10 DAYS. CAR SITS IN DRIVEWAY NOW AND WON,T GO INTO ANY GEAR. CALLED PONTIAC TALKED TO SENIOR ADVISOR WHO SAID THE SAME AS THE DEALER----WELL WE ONLY FIX RECALL STUFF WE DO NOT LOOK OR CHECK OTHER THINGS. SO I RECALLED DEALER WHO SAID " WELL BRING IN THE CAR AND WE CAN CHECK IT OUT FOR $80 AND IF IT TRANSMISSION IT WILL BE $3000/4000 EXTRA. SO I DID THE RECALL ITEMS AS TOLD--AND A CAR THAT WAS RUNNING GOOD BEFORE I TOOK IT IN , NOW IS IN DRIVEWAY WITH POWER STEERING PROBLEMS AND WON'T GO INTO ANY GEAR.AS BOTH THE DEALER AND PONTIAC SAID " WELL NOW IT BECOMES THE CONSUMER PROBLEM NOT OURS-WE DID THE RECALLS". WELL I GUESS THEY FIXED THE SAFETY ISSUES---IF YOU CAN'T DRIVE YOUR CAR YOU HAVE NO CHANCE OF HAVING PROBLEMS, SO YOUR SAFE! I WILL FILE A COMPLAINT TO OTHER AGENCIES ETC. I AM DISABLED AND ON A FIXED INCOME AND THIS BEING MY ONLY CAR, CANNOT FIX THE CAR AT THAT PRICE! *TR
