1995 Pontiac Bonneville Electrical system Problems

“Airbag deployed while driving. Light came on and about 30 seconds later passenger bag went off and blew out the windshield. The insurance company fixed the window but are claiming that this is a mechanical defect and is not covered unless a rider is present on the policy. I feel this is a disclosure violation as I would have had that rider in tact. This vehicle still needs airbags and systems repaired. …”

“Front and rear windows joint welds break leak into the vehicle starts and the airbag module shorts out and can blow anytime this has not been recalled or looked into after I sent in compliant now some kid riding in rain had his blow out and caused an accident with injuries and they wanted to buy back the car for $600 ???? Are they crazy my white paint also peeled but they wont fix it. So I have a shorted out module leak in my front and rear windows and a two colored car they should go bankrupt.”

“I purchased this car used from a dealer in 2001 in michigan. (I don't think the air conditioning ever worked ). Within a few months the traction control went out. It would be on, when the car started, but within driving 300ft. Would go out and could not be turned back on from the button. A few months after that all of the dash lights went out when ever you turned on the head lights. This was due to a bad switch & a short. Then the cruse control went out. A few months after that we had to replace the head gaskets due to the engine over heating by an unknown cause. …”

“We have replaced one lighting switch. The wire harness was melted. We asked about a recall on this 2 years ago when it happened. When it goes out we have no tail lights and no dash board lights. By the looks of other complaints we are not alone. With this many complaints about an electrical wiring default where is melts down like ours did or the cause of a fire why is there not a recall on such a dangerous thing. Would they rather be sued and be liable for deaths if a person is caught in their vehicle when it catches on fire. This is definitely an item that needs to be on the recall list.”

“The wiring harness caught fire. The fire was due to a faulty wire harness behind the steering wheel from the light control switch. The entire switch was melted, especially the wire harness plug hat connected to the wiring harness directly to the switch.”
