| 2007 | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES | TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC SOLSTICE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE AN INTERIOR UNLOCK BUTTON FOR THE POWER DOOR LOCKS. THE CONTACT MUST PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK OR PUSH THE DOOR LOCK BUTTON MANUALLY IN ORDER TO UNLOCK THE DOORS. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS HOW THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 820. |
| 2009 | SEAT BELTS | PURCHASED USED 2009 SOLSTICE ON 9/30/13. PREVIOUS PROBLEM WITH PREVIOUS OWNER BUT MOSSY MOTORS, NEW ORLEANS,LA SAID MOST LIKELY MINOR PROBLEM. ANY TIME BRAKES ARE APPLIED OR MOVING 0 TO 70 MILES PER HOUR THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON MANY TIMES INTERMITTENTLY, ALONG WITH THE RED WARNING SEATBELT LIGHT. I DO NOT KNOW IF IT IS DRIVER OR PASSENGER. I DO KNOW THAT PREVIOUS OWNER HAD SAME PROBLEM AS PER CAR FAX. I AM UNSURE IF MOSSY MOTORS IN NEW ORLEANS WILL FIX IT. SMALL CAR WITHOUT AIRBAG PROTECTION AND SEATBELT DEFAULT SPELLS FATALITY IN SERIOUS ACCIDENT. GM SHOULD HAVE TO RECALL THIS CAR AS THEY HAVE RECALLED SOME 300,000 FOR LIKE AIR BAG/SEATBELT DEFAULTS. THE INTERNET DISCUSSIONS FOR LIKE SOLSTICE PROBLEMS IS INCREDIBLY HIGH WITH REPAIR COSTS THAT ARE NOT AFFORDABLE. PLEASE DO AS YOUR WEB PAGE STATES AND INVESTIGATE THIS SAFETY HAZARD. *TR |
