| 2009 | TIRES | I PURCHASED A 2009 PONTIAC G8 GT IN SEPTEMBER. I LIVE IN SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN. ACCORDING THE PONTIAC WEBSITE HTTP://WWW.PONTIAC.COM/G8-2009/SPECS-FEATURES MY VEHICLE WAS EQUIPPED (STANDARD EQUIPMENT) WITH ALL-SEASON TIRES. MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE HAS SUMMER ONLY TIRES, MAKING IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE IN THE WINTER MONTHS. THERE IS NO MENTION OF THIS DANGEROUS RESTRICTION ON MY VEHICLE OR WINDOW STICKER OR DEALER PAPERWORK. LUCKILY I REALIZED THIS BEFORE DRIVING IN WINTER CONDITIONS WHICH EASILY COULD HAVE LEAD TO A SERIOUS CRASH. *TR |
