2001 burgundy Pontiac Firebird for sale. Asking $2250, but price is negotiable! Excellent shape, very well maintained. Would make a great first car for someone! 196,000 miles, & still runs great. If you pull out in front of someone, you'll definitely stay out in front of them. V6, new exhaust from the manifold back, new shocks, struts, tires in excellent condition, heat, AC working very well. Clean interior, taken good care of, and not driven hard. The mass of the miles are having being driven across country 9 times. 2nd owner, but does have a salvage title only because the last accident cost $100 more than the value of the car at the time, hence the salvage title in order to keep possession of the car at the time. The check engine light is on because of a 420 code which is an O2 sensor that monitors the engine performance. The engine runs great, have all the receipts for the work that has been done since 2009 as far as maintenance & repairs. So with the check engine light on, it will not pass NY inspection, but can easily be registered in another state, and should be good for at least another 40,000 to 50,000 miles. I would be keeping the car & registering it in another state, but I'm in the market for a new car. I've owned this firebird for 11 years, and bought it with 20,000 miles on it in 2002. If you have any questions, please feel freee to contact me about it. Thanx for looking!

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.

GM doing fine at retaining Pontiac owners

Fri, 28 Oct 2011

This isn't the first time we've reported positive news about General Motors retaining former Pontiac owners. Get a few more stories like this latest report from Edmund's Auto Observer, and it will mark an ongoing positive trend for GM. Edmunds.com crunched the numbers to see how well the General is hanging on to customers after shutting out the lights at Pontiac, and it found that nearly 40 percent of Pontiac owners stayed with a vehicle from a General Motors brand.
The numbers are a little lower than an earlier R.L. Polk & Company study, but Edmunds says General Motors is keeping more former Pontiac buyers than it has since 2007. Most are turning to vehicles from Chevrolet, especially during January and February of 2011, when GM incentivized Pontiac owners to stay under the umbrella. Those moves seem to have worked, and 28.1 percent of Pontiac owners trading up made the jump into a Bowtie.
Buyers that have gone elsewhere have largely stayed loyal to Domestic automakers, with Ford picking up the most conquests from Pontiac, with 9.4 percent switching. Toyota and Honda picked up 7.4 percent of the pool of former Pontiac drivers. The numbers are defying any predictions that Pontiac buyers would completely exit the General Motors fold, and have climbed up closer to parity with the retention figures of other GM brands from a 2009 low of only 16 percent retention.
