What owners report
I AM BOTH COMPLAINING AND REQUESTING HELP. I HAVE A 1987 PONTIAC FIERO V6 WHICH WAS NEVER TAKEN IN FOR RECALL WORK AND AS A RESULT HAS SEVERE OVERHEATING ISSUES AND WILL OCCASIONALLY HAVE AN ISSUE WITH SMALL AMOUNTS OF OIL HITTING THE EXHAUST HEADERS. SAW THE RECALL ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE SO I TRIED TO CALL GENERAL MOTORS BUT THEY SAID THAT THEIR COMPUTERS NO LONGER HAVE RECORDS OF CARS AS OLD AS MINE AND THEREFORE THEY COULDN'T HELP ME. I CONTACTED A DEALERSHIP WHICH LOOKED UP THE NHTSA RECALL BULLETINS 88-C-23 AND 88-C-24 WHICH AFFECTS THE 1987 FIERO V6 REGARDING ENGINE FIRES BUT SAID THAT SINCE THE FIERO IS TOO OLD THE VIN DATA IS NO LONGER IN THE GM DATABASE THEY DON'T HAVE TO DO THE RECAL
I CALLED PONTIAC TODAY ABOUT A RECALL THEY ISSUED THESE CARS. ACCORDING TO THE DOCUMENT THEY SENT THERE DEALERSHIP CARS MY CAR FALLS IN THIS RECALL AND THEY ARE STATING THEY HAVE NO RECALLS ON THIS CAR. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE, I KNOW THIS IS A OLDER CAR BUT THIS CAN STILL LEAD TO A SERIOUS MATTER OF WHY THEY DID THE RECALL AN ENGINE FIRE!! I TAKE THIS VERY SERIOUS AND I WANT TO GET THIS RESOLVED. THE CAR SHOWS NO SIGNS OF ANY RECALL BEING COMPLETED. WHAT CAN I DO TO GET THIS RESOLVED?? *TR
I'D LIKE TO KNOW IF PONTIAC WILL STILL HONOR THE PONTIAC FIERO RECALL, PARTICULIARLY THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS.*AK
I WOULD LIKE A LIST OF ALL RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE SO THAT I CAN GET IT FIXED. THIS MAKES THE SECOND TIME THAT THE TEMP GAUGE HAS WENT OUT OF THIS CAR. I HAVE BEEN TOLD MY PROFESSIONAL THAT IT IS THE WAY IT HAS BEEN WIRED FROM THE MANAFACTUOR. THANK YOU
WHILE ATTEMPTING TO DO SOME WORK ON SAID VEHICLE I BEGAN TO JACK IT UP WITH THE SCISSOR TYPE JACK PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER. AFTER RAISING THE VEHICLE BODY ABOUT 3 INCHES THE SCREW THREAD ON THE JACK STRIPPED OUT OF FITTING IN THE JACK DROPPING THE VEHICLE. WHILE NO ONE WAS HURT OR DAMAGE DONE I FEEL THIS A DANGEROUS SITUATION. HAD THE VEHICLE BEEN HIGHER OR ONE OF THE TIRES REMOVED WHEN THE JACK COLLAPSED INJURY COULD HAVE OCCURRED.
