I have a 2009 Pontiac G8 I have had it for a year and 2 months its got a little over 50,000 miles on it and the ball joints have gone bad. Which makes it an unsafe car to drive. The one year warranty from the dealership has run out and now I am stuck with a car that is unsafe to drive and a costly fix to repair.

After reading on the internet I am not the only one GM has made another car with crappie parts and the owners have to make the payments and fix GMs problems, until people start to get hurt or even die why are car manufactures allowed to do this and get away with it. They should be held accountable.

The car first started with a little clunk noise over small bumps in the road and a wobble around turns like exits and progressively got worse over the next week to the point that the car is totally not safe to drive when you get your car inspected by a State inspector one the first thinks he checks is the ball joints because it is huge safety concern when driving a vehicle such as brakes and tires.

I too agree with other complaints that people have made I understand why GM is going under because they make vehicles with Cheesy parts. I like to buy American made cars just not GM I will stick to Ford from now on. My 2001 Ford Explorer Still running STRONG 200k mile and just basic maintenance. Thanks you Ford quality parts are important.
