Pontiac Bonneville Electrical System Safety Report | Jan 16, 2004
Reported on Jan 16, 2004
| LAST WEEKEND WHEN I WAS DRIVING MY PONTIAC BONNEVILLE REGISTRATION TAG [XXX], NJ LICENSE PLATE HAS A [XXX] BACK DOOR POPS OPEN ACCIDENTALLY. SURPRISINGLY I CALL THE GM DEALER AND FOUND THIS VEHICLE IS NOT EQUIPPED WITH DOOR OPEN WARNING. THIS FEATURE IS VERY COMMON IN VERY CHEAP BASIC CARS, WHERE AS LARGE BIG CAR IS MISSING. BEING A FULL SIZE FAMILY SEDAN, I WAS EXPECTING TO SEE THIS TYPE OF BASIC SAFETY WARNING SYSTEM WHEN THIS CAR HAS SUNROOF, ANTILOCK BRAKES, LEATHER SEATS, TRACTION CONTROL AND CLIMATE CONTROL ETC. IT WAS GOOD THAT MY ELEVEN-YEAR KID HAD A SAFETY BELT ON AT TIME IT HAD OCCURRED. I DO NOT WANT TO SAME THING HAPPEN TO OTHER DRIVERS AND LIVE IN FEAR WEATHER OR NOT CAR IS REALLY LOCKED OR NOT. I AM REALLY NOT FEELING COMFORTABLE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE WITH WHOLE FAMILY. I APPRECIATE YOUR IMMEDIATE HELP. THANKS, [XXX] UPDATED 07/27/2012 *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) | |
