Dealers will inspect the front frame assembly and replace it if necessary. The recall began on august 16, 2004. Owners should contact pontiac at 1-800-620-7668.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
