Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Driver side rear wheel bearing malfunction causing me to wreak my car into a mailbox. State farm insurance would not fix wheel bearing said that it was a defect from Pontiac. Contacted Pontiac they would not help pay for the repair since I took it to a state farm service first location which was a dodge dealership. I have had bad dealings with the wiese (GM) dealership. But this was a place that the state farm case was delt with so they had to investigate and Pontiac would not help. Second time Pontiac would not help me out. I will trade my car if this is not solved.”
