Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Front left bearing & hub assembly replacement at 31,277 miles. front right bearing & hub assembly replacement at 49,482 miles. replace leaking head gasket at 39,931 miles. *ak this car is also on it's 3rd set of tires i'm not getting any reasons why on this either - the dealership where i bought the car told me "tires are like brakes-some just wear out faster than others." i don't know if the hub problems added to the tire wear or not - the wheel actually wobbled on the car before it was repaired. 1st set replaced at about 20,000 miles. 2nd set replaced at about 28,000 miles. i have called pontiac several times over the last 2 years about car repaires & tire wear. i was told these things are just maintenance! i considered the brake job at 39,931 miles maintenance but not hubs & a head gasket. also, i have had the car in for heating problems. in very cold weather, you need the blower on high & the heat setting on high - even then, you are still cold. there is alot of outside air coming in the front of the car (not sealed very well)
