PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 2005 car safety problem was reported on Apr 23, 2007.PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 2005, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with STEERING:ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM . DURING THE SECOND WEEK OF APRIL 2007, I NOTICED MY 2005 GRAND PRIX GT WAS MAKING A SORT OF "WHIZZING" NOISE WHEN I ACCELERATED. I NOTICED THIS NOISE WAS PARTICULARLY PRONOUNCED WHEN I TURNED. ON APRIL 13, 2007, I CHECKED THE POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL. I WAS ALARMED TO FIND THAT THERE WAS LITTLE TO NO FLUID! I ADDED FLUID TO THE RESERVOIR IMMEDIATELY AND DECIDED TO CHECK THE GAUGE AGAIN ,THE NEXT MORNING. UPON DOING SO THE NEXT DAY, I FOUND THE POWER STEERING FLUID TO BE ACCEPTABLE. I DECIDED TO CHECK THE FLUID LEVEL FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS TO TRACK THE RATE OF LEAKAGE --- AGAIN ON SUNDAY, APRIL 15, THE FLUID LEVEL SEEMED OK. I DROVE MY CAR TO THE AIRPORT THAT SAME DAY AND LEFT IT FOR THE ENTIRETY OF THE FOLLOWING WEEK WHILE I WAS ON BUSINESS. I PICKED IT UP ON SUNDAY NIGHT, APRIL 22 AND DROVE IT HOME (30 MILES) WITH NO TROUBLE. ON MY WAY TO WORK THE MORNING OF MONDAY, APRIL 23, SEVERAL LIGHTS CAME ON IN MY CAR -- SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM, SERVICE VARIABLE EFFORT STEERING, SERVICE ABS. AT THE MOMENT THESE LIGHTS APPEARED, STEERING BECAME *SEVERELY* DIMINISHED! IT WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO TURN AND DRIVE THE CAR. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO SHOP WHERE THE CAR WAS DIAGNOSED AS LEAKING POWER STEERING FLUID IN 2 PLACES. THE HOSES AND PUMP WERE REPLACED. THE CAR WAS RETURNED TO ME ON APRIL 24. ON MY WAY TO WORK ON APRIL 26, THE LIGHTS RETURNED AND AGAIN, I LOST THE ABILITY TO STEER. CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY, I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE SHOP WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS HAVING A FAULTY SENSOR (LINKED TO THE POWER STEERING) ON ONE OF THE REAR WHEELS. THAT SENSOR HAS SINCE BEEN REPLACED. TO HAVE THIS KIND OF EXTREME DEGRADATION AND FAILURE ON SUCH A NEW VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND CLEARLY A QUALITY DEFECT. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 62000 miles.

PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 2005 car safety problem was reported on Sept 10, 2008.PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 2005, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with STEERING . I HAVE A GENERAL MOTORS 2005 GRAND PRIX. IT HAS DEVELOPED A 'KNOCKING' SOUND WHEN DRIVING. THE SAME NOISE CORRESPONDS WITH BUMPS YOU CAN FEEL IN THE STEERING WHEEL. I TOOK THE CAR TO A GOODYEAR SERVICE CENTER. THEY PUT THE CAR ON THE LIFT, REMOVED THE FRONT TIRES AND DID A COMPLETE EXAMINATION OF THE "FRONT END". THEY REPORTED THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM IN THE STEERING COLUMN. I CALLED PONTIAC'S CUSTOMER HOT-LINE OUT OF THE BACK OF THE OWNERS MANUAL. THEY WOULD NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM. THEY DID STATE THAT THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIR TO THE STEERING COLUMN. I ASKED FOR THAT INFORMATION IN WRITING. THE PHONE OPERATOR SAID HE WOULD NOT PROVIDE THAT TO ME. I ASKED FOR HIS SUPERVISOR. HE PROMPTLY HUNG UP ON ME. I CALLED BACK. I OPENED A NEW CASE #71-663-678745. THE OPERATOR INFORMED ME THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO VERIFY THE INFORMATION VIA AN "AUTHORIZED DEALER". WE CONFERENCE CALLED WITH BOB BROWN CHEVY. THEY SAID THEY KNEW OF THIS PROBLEM, BUT WOULD CHARGE ME $89 TO DIAGNOSE IT...EVEN THOUGH IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. ACCORDING TO THE GOODYEAR SERVICE CENTER - THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES ARE AFFECTED..AND GM WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE IT. THEY DON'T WANT TO RECALL THE PRODUCT. BOB BROWN CHEVY GAVE AN 'OFF THE CUFF' ESTIMATE OF $300 TO REPLACE THE LOWER STEERING COLUMN EXTENSION. IF IT HAS A KNOCKING SOUND AND CAN BE FELT IN THE STEERING WHEEL, I FEEL THAT THE CAR IS NOW UNSAFE. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AND WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER GM CAR UNTIL I AM SATISFIED THAT THE STEERING COLUMN WON'T BECOME UNATTACHED AND ALLOW THE CAR TO VEER TO THE SIDE AT WILL. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY CARS ARE AFFECTED, OR IF ANY CRASHES HAVE BEEN ATTRIBUTED TO LOSS OF STEERING DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW IN THE STEERING COLUMN. IN 30 YEARS OF DRIVING, I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM IN DOZENS OF CARS FROM ALL TYPES OF MANUFACTURERS - EITHER OWNED OR RENTED. *TR THE REPAIR INCLUDES REPLACEMENT OF THE LOWER COLUMN EXTENSION ARM. UPDATED 11/07/08. *JB.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 66290 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2G2WS522151. Pontiac Grand Prix 2005 problem was reported in CLIVE, IA.

I PURCHASED A 2005 GRAND PRIX GT, ON APRIL 28, 2009. IT WAS A USED VEHICLE AND HAD 28,000 WHEN PURCHASED FROM USED CAR DEALER. WHEN I TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE I NOTICED A KNOCK WITH THE STEERING SYSTEM. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A PROBLEM AND THE DEALERS WERE AWARE OF. THEY SAID THEY WOULD FIX IT ONCE THE KNOCK OR THE SYSTEM GOT WORST. I AM GOING TO THE DEALER THAT I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM AS THE STEERING SYSTEM IS GETTING MORE PRONOUNCED. I CALLED OUR LOCAL PONTIAC DEALER THAT WAS STILL IN BUSINESS AND HE SAID THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE POWER STEERING SET UP. I HAVE FOUND INFORMATION ON THE WEB SITE THAT STATES THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING.

THERE WERE ODI COMPLAINTS FILLED CONCERNING THE PROBLEM. I CAN REFERENCE THE NUMBERS IF YOU NEED THEM. I HAVE TALKED TO ANOTHER PONTIAC DEALER WHO HAS LOST HIS FRANCHISE BUT STATED TO ME THAT IT WAS A PROBLEM AND THAT HE WOULD FIX IT FOR ME. I TOLD HIM THAT WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR THEY WOULD FIX IT. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. I AM SURE YOU HAVE RECEIVED COMPLAINTS ON THIS SUBJECT. THE SYSTEM HAS NOT FAILED BUT UNTIL I GET THIS CORRECTED I WILL NOT LET ANYONE DRIVE THE VEHICLE BUT ME. CAN YOU HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM, CAN WE GET A RECALL ON THIS. GM HAS TAKEN STIMULUS DOLLARS AND THEY WILL NOT STAND BY THERE PRODUCT. THANKS FOR ANY THING THAT YOU CAN PROVIDE ME IN THIS SAFETY ISSUE.

EVERY TIME I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN OUT OF WARRANTY, AND EVEN WHILE IT WAS IN WARRANTY, THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. I KNOW THE 4T65E-HD TRANSMISSION IN THIS CAR IS SUBJECT TO FAILURE AS I AM A MEMBER OF MANY ONLINE FORUMS THAT HAVE CARS WITH THE LS4 V8 AND 4T65E-HD AND THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE IS THE NUMBER ONE TOPIC OF DISCUSSION. IT WILL LEAVE YOU STRANDED WITHOUT WARNING, AND MAY BREAK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC CAUSING A DANGEROUS SITUATION TO BE IN.

MY CAR AT ONLY 54K MILES, TRANSMISSION FAILED, CAUSING TO LOOSE POWER IN TRAFFIC. I HAD THE TRANSMISSION REBUILT ($2400), 8 MONTHS LATER IT FAILED AGAIN ($1200), 2 MONTHS LATER, FAILED AGAIN ($0-WARRANTY). MECHANIC FINALLY FIGURED OUT IT WAS SOME PRESSURE RELIEVE VALVE ON THE TRANSMISSION, CAUSING PRESSURE TO BUILD UP, CAUSING THE TORQUE CONVERTER TO EXPLODE, SENDING DEBRIS THROUGHOUT THE TRANSMISSION. I DID NOT GO TO DEALER AS CAR FOR THAT MODEL YEAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, BUT WENT TO TRANSMISSION SHOP WHO HAS BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR ABOUT 30 YEARS. I WROTE TO GM, BUT GOT NO MONETARY SATISFACTION. MANY PEOPLE I'VE READ ABOUT ONLINE WITH THIS TYPE OF TRANSMISSION HAVE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS. I'VE NEVER HAD TRANSMISSION TROUBLE IN ALL THE CARS I'VE EVER OWNED. IT WOULD SEEM THERE IS A DEFECT IN THIS MODEL, AND WOULD LIKE TO RECOUP THE MONEY SPENT ON THIS ISSUE. IT SEEMS IT'S ON GM MODELS WITH A V8 FRONT WHEEL DRIVE TRANSMISSION.

PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 2005 car safety problem was reported on Apr 21, 2011.PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 2005, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . TRANSMISSION ON MY 2005 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX GXP FAILED ON 11/23/09 AT 94,622 MILES. CAR WAS BROUGHT TO DAVE SINCLAIR BUICK/PONTIAC/GMC AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. THE SECOND TRANSMISSION STARTED BUCKING WHILE GOING UP HILLS AT 120,000 MILES. TOOK THE CAR IN AT 120,703 TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID NO PROBLEM WAS FOUND WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND IT WAS IN GOOD CONDITION. THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AGAIN AT 124190 WITH LESS THAN 30,000 MILES ON IT. DAVE SINCLAIR REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION FOR $2979.19. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO GM DISTRICT MANAGERS ABOUT THIS NOT BEING AN ISOLATED INCIDENT WITH THESE TRANSMISSIONS AND THAT I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS REPLACEMENT. THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE 4T65E-HD TRANSMISSIONS WHERE THERE IS NOT ENOUGH LINE PRESSURE GETTING TO THE TRANSMISSION DUE TO A FAULTY TRANSMISSION PAN MAGNET UNDER TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN NUMBER 08-07-30-040B FROM MAY 2009. SINCE MY TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED WELL AFTER THAT, MY TRANSMISSION SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED AS THE SYMPTOMS WERE EXACTLY THE SAME AS WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN WITH THIS ISSUE. FURTHERMORE, THIS NEW TRANSMISSION IS DOING ALL THE SAME THINGS THE OLD ONE STARTED TO DO BEFORE IT DIED. GM HAS DENIED MY REIMBURSEMENT CLAIM 2 TIMES AND I HAVE NOT STOPPED COMPLAINING. I AM ABOUT TO DROP OFF MY CAR FOR THE THIRD TIME IN LESS THAN A MONTH BECAUSE DAVE SINCLAIR HAS NOT RESOLVED THE ISSUES WITH THIS NEW TRANSMISSION. GM SHOULD RECALL THIS TRANSMISSION AND REIMBURSE ALL PEOPLE THAT HAVE PAID FOR REPLACEMENTS. *TR.Mileage was 120703 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2G2WC52C351.

PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 2005 Power Train Report #10534646

PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 2005 car safety problem was reported on Aug 09, 2013.PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 2005, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with POWER TRAIN . THE CAR WAS ABOUT TO ENTER THE MASS PIKE WHEN ALL FORWARD MOTION STOPPED. THE TRANSMISSION WAS IN 'DRIVE' BUT IT ACTED AS THOUGH IT HAD SLIPPED INTO NEUTRAL. THE CAR WAS DEAD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND THERE WERE A NUMBER A NEAR MISS COLLISIONS BEFORE THE EMERGENCY VEHICLE ARRIVED. THE CAR IS NOW AT A GM DEALERSHIP AWAITING A TRANSMISSION REBUILD. WE BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW AND HAVE HAD A NUMBER OF TRANSMISSION ISSUES STARTING AT 12,456 MILES. WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR OF OWNERSHIP WE REPORTED A 'CLUNKING' NOISE TO THE DEALERSHIP - THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM. WE HAD ADDITIONAL ISSUES WHERE THE CAR WOULD 1) NOT MOVE WHEN STARTING FROM A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR 2) WOULD ACT AS THOUGH IT WAS IN NEUTRAL WHEN COASTING AND THEN 'BANG' INTO GEAR SEVERAL SECONDS AFTER STEPPING ON THE GAS PEDAL. THESE ISSUES WERE REPORTED TO THE DEALER AT 33657, 45381, 51284, 56446, 61543 AND 72552 MILES. IN EACH CASE, EXCEPT FOR THE ONE AT 56446 MILES THE DEALER SAID THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE - BUT THEY CHARGED FOR THE TIME. AT 56446 MILES WE TRIED ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND THEY SPENT OVER AN HOUR TESTING THE CAR. FINALLY, THEY DID EXPERIENCE THE PROBLEM. THEY REPLACED SEVERAL TRANSMISSION PARTS BUT WE EXPERIENCED A SHUDDERING PROBLEM LESS THAN A YEAR LATER. THEY DETECTED A POSSIBLE TORQUE CONVERTER PROBLEM AT THAT POINT BUT SAID IT THE COULD BE DRIVEN AND NO OTHER PARTS OF THE TRANSMISSION WOULD BE AFFECTED. THERE IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSION IN GM V8 CARS - THERE ARE MANY REPORTS OF FAILURES AND EXPENSIVE REPAIRS. IT APPEARS TO BE A DESIGN ISSUE. THE SYMPTOMS STARTED EARLY ON, AND DESPITE OUR MULTIPLE REPORTS OF PROBLEMS AND EXACT ADHERENCE TO THE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE THERE WAS ALMOST A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 78600 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2G2WC54C551. Pontiac Grand Prix 2005 problem was reported in SALEM, NH. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 2005 car safety problem was reported on Sept 22, 2011.PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 2005, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . GM RECENT ADMISSION AND THE NHTSA CONFIRMATION OF ACCIDENTS AND DEATHS CAUSE BY IGNITION SWITCH TURNING OFF IN GENERAL MOTOR VEHICLES IS ALSO APPLICABLE TO PONTIACS TOO WHICH WAS NOT MENTIONED. I HAVE A 2005 PONTIAC GRAN PRIX IN WHICH I HAD THIS HAPPENED TWICE TO ME. THE SECOND TIME ALMOST CAUSING ME TO ALMOST GET SIDE SWIPE BY A LARGE TRUCK WHILE GOING AROUND A BEND ON A BRIGHT SUNNY DAY IN FLORIDA. AS DESCRIBE BY THE INCIDENT OF THESE EVENTS. I WAS DRIVING AND OPERATING MY PONTIAC NORMALLY, AND WHEN I ENTERED THE CORNER THE CAR LOST ALL POWER AS IT KEPT ON GOING. EVERYTHING SHUT DOWN. AND BECAUSE OF THE LOST OF POWER TO THE STEERING AND POWER BRAKES I HAD TO LITERALLY MANHANDLE THE VEHICLE FROM GOING DIRECTLY INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND GETTING SMASHED. AN EVEN THAT WAS VERY SCARE AND NOW I KNOW THE CAUSE. I DO NOT KNOW WHY GM MODEL FROM SATURN, OLDMOBILE AND PONTIAC ARE NOT MENTIONED IN THE RECALL. BUT OBVIOUSLY THEY ALL USE AND INCORPORATE THE SAME IGNITION SYSTEMS, PARTS AND COMPONENTS. BECAUSE OF NEGLECT OF GENERAL MOTOR I ALMOST LOST MY LIFE DRIVING ONE OF THEIR VEHICLE. I STILL HAVE THE VEHICLE AND I HAVE HAD ONE OTHER INSIDE OF LOST OF POWER THAT COULD BE RELATED. BY I BELIEVE THAT PONTIACS ARE ALSO SUSCEPTIBLE TO THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH AS THE CARS THAT ARE ALL BEING RECALLED AND INVOLVED IN DEADLY ACCIDENTS. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 93000 miles.

THEN, MY DASH LIGHTS BECAME I UNCHARACTERISTICALLY DIM FOLLOWED BY INTERMITTENT STOPPING OF MY AIR BLOWER. AFTER MANY TRIPS TO THE CAR MECHANIC, NO SOLUTIONS HAVE REMEDIED MY PROBLEM.
