TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G5. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL WAS LEAKING FROM THE FUEL TANK. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT FUEL FUMES EMITTING INTO THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY HAD FRACTURED AND THAT THE FUEL PUMP MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 12V459000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G5. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL LINES WERE CORRODED CAUSING FUEL TO LEAK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL RAIL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER FOR FUEL LEAKS AND THEY REPLACED THE RECALL ITEMS( FUEL PUMP) ON THE FUEL SYSTEM. I DROVE HOME AND FILLED IT UP TO FIND GALLONS OF GASOLINE POURING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY. DROPPED IT OFF AT THE DEALER AFTER HOURS SO THE COULD ENJOY THE GAS LEAK. CALLED THEM TO LEARN THAT THE TANK IS ALSO CRACKED NEAR THE FILL AREA. THEY DIDN'T FIND THIS DURING THE ORIGINAL FIX? VERY LUCK NOT TO HAVE HAD A MAJOR FIRE AND FROM RESEARCH THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE GAS TANK BEING CRACKED WHEN THE FUEL PUMP DELIVERY RECALL IS DONE. THE TANKS ARE CRACKED TOO. SHOULD HAVE BEEN PART OF THE RECALL. *TR

MY VEHICLE WAS ONE IN THE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL. HOWEVER, SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE EVER SO OFTEN AND MORE AND MORE THE GAUGES WILL GO CRAZY ALL LIGHTS (CHECK ENGINE, POWER STEERING, ANTITHEFT, ETC) WILL ALL GO ON AT ONCE! THIS HAPPENS AS I AM DRIVING IT AND WITHOUT WARNING (ON THE HIGHWAY, OR JUST DRIVING IN THE CITY). THE CAR ACTS AS IF I AM PRESSING THE GAS AND BRAKES AT THE SAME TIME AND I CAN'T STEER THE CAR! THIS NEEDS TO BECOME A RECALL AS I KNOW OF NUMEROUS OTHER CARS THIS IS HAPPENING TO. JUST LOOK ONLINE! THEY CAN NEVER FIND ANYTHING WHEN I TAKE IT IN AND SOMEONE WILL END UP DYING IF THIS DOESN'T GET RESOLVED. *TR

I NOTICED A STRONG GAS SMELL WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS OFF AND WHILE DRIVING. I TOOK IT TO A REPAIR SHOP AND THEY SAID I HAVE A GAS LEAK. I SEE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR GAS LEAKS IN WARM WEATHER STATES FOR A GAS LEAK ISSUE. I LIVE IN COLORADO AND WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. I THINK IT MAY BE RELATED TO THE RECALL. *TR

OWNING A PONTIAC G5, I WAS PART OF THE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL. AFTER RECEIVING SERVICE FOR THIS RECALL, STARTED EXPERIENCING 'SERVICE AIR BAG' LIGHT AND VERBIAGE ON ODOMETER INTERMITTENTLY. AS OF THIS DATE, 11/03/2014, THE LIGHT AND MESSAGE HAS BEEN COMING ON EACH TIME I START THE CAR, ALONG WITH THE DINGING ASSOCIATED WITH THE MESSAGE, AND STAYS ON THE ENTIRE TIME I DRIVE THE VEHICLE. I HAVE HEARD THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON AIR BAGS ON OVER 8,000,000 CARS, THAT THE AIR BAGS DEPLOY AND SHOOT SHRAPNEL INTO THE DRIVER'S FACES, AND AM WONDERING IF MY VEHICLE IS ONE OF THEM. *TR

AFTER 2 REPAIRS ON A RECALL FOR THE STEERING WHEEL POWER I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. GM IS NOT FIXING THE ISSUE BUT JUT PATCHING IT-SO THE SAME PROBLEM IS OCCURRING OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I CALLED MULTIPLE TIMES AND GM ADVISE ME THAT THEY FIXED THE RECALL ALREADY TWICE AND NOT GOING TO FIX IT AGAIN. PLEASE SEE LINK TO YOUTUBE OF WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPEN: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=Z7GLEN5VIK4. *TR

WHEN PEP BOYS FIRST REMOVED THE PASSENGER REAR ENGINE CRADLE BOLT BACK IN MARCH, THE FACTORY NUT BROKE OFF FROM BEING WELDED TO THE CAR BODY. WHEN A LOCAL MECHANIC RECENTLY REMOVED THE BOLT FOR RELATED SERVICE, HE SHOWED IT TO ME. THE THREADS ON THE MIDDLE OF THE BOLT SHAFT WERE ALL SEEMINGLY CHEWED UP. THE LOCAL MECHANICS BEST GUESS WAS THAT THE AIR CONDITIONER CONDENSER DRAINS ON TO THAT AREA, WHICH ORIGINALLY WEAKENED THE FACTORY WELDED NUT, AND CAUSING CORROSION ON THE ENGINE CRADLE BOLT. THE BOLT WON'T LAST LONG, AND I HAVE ORDERED A REPLACEMENT BOLT, AT MY EXPENSE, TO REPLACE THE PREMATURELY 'WORN' ORIGINAL BOLT. UNFORTUNATELY, NOT MUCH CAN BE DONE TO RESTORE HAVING A FACTORY WELDED NUT TO RECEIVE SAID BOLT. HAD I NOT COMMISSIONED THE ADDITIONAL WORK, I MAY HAVE HAD A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IN THE FUTURE, UNAWARE OF THE BOLT CORRODING AWAY! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G5. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED. THE LOW BEAMS FAILED TO WORK INTERMITTENTLY WHEN SWITCHED FROM HIGH BEAM TO LOW BEAM. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 152,102.

GM HAS SENT NUMEROUS RECALL LETTERS ABOUT THE FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH ON MY 2007 PONTIAC G5. I WENT TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO PUT IN A REQUEST FOR PARTS. SEEMED ODD THAT I HAD TO REQUEST PARTS FOR A WELL KNOWN SAFETY RECALL. THE DEALERSHIP IS JUPITER CHEVROLET AT 11611 LBJ FWY, GARLAND, TX 75041. I PUT IN THIS REQUEST ABOUT 7 WEEKS AGO. I HAVE NOT HEARD FROM GM OR JUPITER CHEVROLET ABOUT THE PARTS. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP OVER A WEEK AGO AND HAD TO LEAVE A MESSAGE BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT ANSWER THE PHONE. STILL NO RETURN CALL. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP YOU CAN PROVIDE TO GET MY CAR IN SAFE OPERATING CONDITION. THANKS *TR
