| 1998 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK | REAR BRAKES LOCK UP AFTER GETTING WET. WE HAVE HAD THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THE FIRST TWO TIMES THEY SAID IT WAS BRAKE DUST, CLEANED AND ADJUSTED BRAKES. THE THIRD INCIDENT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM SO AS FAR AS THEY ARE CONCERNED IT DOES NOT EXIST. *AK |
| 2004 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT PANEL | THE SPEEDOMETER ON MY 2004 PONTIAC SUNFIRE STICKS AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND DOES NOT RETURN TO 0MPH WHEN I STOP. AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IT WILL BE PEGGED ALL THE WAY TO MAX. THIS CONDITION SEEMS TO BE WORSE WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS COLD. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT THE TACHOMETER WILL DO THE SAME THING BUT IS NOT AS BAD AS THE SPEEDOMETER. WHEN THE ENGINE IS SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED THE TACH WILL RESET BACK TO 0. *TR |
