2003 PONTIAC VIBE Pontiac Had an Idea for a Car. Then They Presented 2003 PONTIAC VIBE Pontiac had an idea for a car. Then they presented their concept to Toyota, asking them to build the Vibe at the Fremont, California factory where General Motors and Toyota have assembled cars together for many moons. Thus, the Vibe was born, using the Corolla platform and mechanical parts. Toyota so liked the concept that it asked GM if they could produce their own model—the Matrix—with different lines, to which the American automotive giant agreed. The Vibe is available in the Base, All-Wheel Drive, and GT models. The latter is characterized by its 180 h.p. engine and six-speed manual transmission. Interior and trunk Easily accessed, the Vibe invites front occupants to sit back into very comfortable seats equipped with height adjustment, good lateral supports, and with fabric that appears to be quite sturdy. Unfortunately, there is no adjustable lumbar support, and the driving position is far from perfect. A telescoping steering wheel would be necessary to allow arms and legs to be, simultaneously, a good distance from the pedals and the steering wheel. Additionally, with the belt line being quite high, some people may feel claustrophobic. The rear bench comfortably seats two adults, who will also enjoy the very good head and leg clearance. The fold-down seatback is split 60/40, and both sections have a track in the back with an adjustable tie-down. This is good since the plastic on the seatback and floor makes for a slippery surface. Note that once folded down, the seatback becomes a flat surface level with the trunk floor. Easily accessed thanks to a liftgate that opens wide, loading space is limited when the seatbacks are upright. Once the seatbacks are folded down, space options become more worthwhile, especially since the front passenger seat is also equipped with the fold-down feature, giving that much more loading space—up to 8 ft. (or 2.44 m) on the right-hand side. Convenience and safety Though very well-finished, the cabin has some soundproofing gaps when it comes to engine noise at mid-speeds, and even more so when it comes to road noise from the rear, especially when the rear seatbacks are folded down. The cheap cargo-cover found in one of the compartments won’t help much in this matter! Storage spaces are plentiful, but the cup-holder should be able to fit more container sizes, especially in a car that wants to attract people who are on the move. Instruments and controls are well laid out and the heating system produces enough heat, but it is poorly distributed in the “Heat/Defrost” position, with which the majority of the air blows at the windshield. The Vibe features a new 115-volt household-type power outlet into which you can plug a computer. From a safety standpoint, the Vibe features two front airbags, two side airbags (available as an option in the Base model), large mirrors, ABS brakes (optional or standard depending on the model), and four head restraints. Unfortunately they don’t raise high enough for tall people, particularly the ones in the rear. Visibility is good in all directions except toward the back due to the rear head restraints. The headlights lack power in low beam position. Engine and transmission The four cylinder 1.8L engine has 130 h.p. and 125 lb.-ft. of torque. Note that for the All- Wheel Drive model, those numbers change to 123 and 118 respectively. At 130 horses, accelerations are sufficient, though passing requires a little planning because the power doesn’t go very far. At medium speed and higher, the engine is noisy, and between 2,500 and 3,000 rpm there is a distinct vibration perceptible through the accelerator. The engine meets ULEV (Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle) standards. The automatic gearbox works with a great degree of smoothness the vast majority of the time. The well-geared manual gearbox is smooth, precise and easy to handle, but emits a cheap sound when changing gears. On the road The fully independent suspension is firm enough to bounce fairly briskly over some bumps. In other situations, it provides genuine comfort and good road handling with little lean. When carrying a load, the stiff brisk bounce is somewhat tempered. The Vibe requires frequent steering wheel correction in windy conditions. The power steering is nicely weighted and proves stable, precise, and fairly quick. While the turning circle is normal, few sensations are transmitted to the driver. The brakes prove to be very good overall. At the CAA-Quebec Technical Inspection Center, the Vibe appeared to us to be well- built, with the exception of a few elements. For instance, there were small holes in the front inner fender liners, the gas tank filler pipe could be better protected, and some joints beneath the car were not sealed. Conclusion The Vibe is a modern, and successful, twist on the station wagon. The eminently practical side of this type of car, paired with unwavering contemporary styling, ensure that the Vibe won’t have any trouble finding takers. In addition to versatility, this car can rely on comfortable seating and pleasant road handling. One must, however, make sure that the driving position is well-suited to the driver.

  • Recall Bulletin Date: February 2010
    File In Section: Product Recalls Bulletin No.: 10018 Recall Bulletin Date: February 2010 PRODUCT SAFETY RECALL SUBJECT: Accelerator Pedal Sticking MODELS: 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe CONDITION Toyota has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in all 2009 and 2010 model year Pontiac Vibe vehicles. The Pontiac Vibe was manufactured by New United Motor Manufacturing, Inc. (NUMMI), a joint venture between Toyota and GM. In these vehicles, there is a possibility that certain accelerator pedal mechanisms may mechanically stick in a partially depressed position or return slowly to the idle position. Over time, the internal mechanisms in the accelerator pedal may become worn. As a result of this wear, combined with certain operating and environmental conditions, friction in the mechanism may increase and intermittently result in the accelerator pedal being hard to depress and/or slow to return or, in the worst case, stick in a partially open position, increasing the risk of a crash, serious injury, or death. CORRECTION Dealers are to install a precision-cut steel reinforcement bar into the accelerator pedal assembly, which will increase the clearance between the internal mechanisms in the accelerator pedal assembly. This increased clearance will reduce the friction caused by wear and environmental conditions, and allow the pedal to operate smoothly for the life of the vehicle. VEHICLES INVOLVED Involved are all 2009 and 2010 model year Pontiac Vibe vehicles built within these VIN breakpoints: Year Division Model From Through 2009 Pontiac Vibe 9Z400001 9Z478598 2010 Pontiac Vibe AZ400001 AZ420785 Important: Dealers are to confirm vehicle eligibility prior to beginning repairs by using GMVIS (dealers using WINS) or the Investigate Vehicle History link (dealers using GWM).

  • Q&A for Toyota Safety Recalls Including 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe
    GM SERVICE AND PARTS OPERATIONS DCS2366 URGENT - DISTRIBUTE IMMEDIATELY February 4, 2010 Date: Subject: Toyota Safety Recalls – Updated Questions and Answers Models: 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe To: All General Motors Dealers (Excluding Saab, Saturn, HUMMER) Attention: General Manager, New Vehicle Sales Manager, Used Vehicle Sales Manager, Service Manager, and Parts Manager Below are updated questions and answers that may be helpful in any discussions with 2009- 2010 Vibe owners. Additional information regarding parts availability and the repair procedure will be provided early next week. Q&A for Toyota Safety Recalls including 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe (Revises A1, A2 and A6) Q1. Is it safe to drive the Pontiac Vibe? A1. The field experience for the 2009 – 2010 Pontiac Vibe has been excellent. While we initially had no complaints regarding unintended acceleration, since the Vibe was included in two Toyota recalls, we have received several complaints of alleged sticking accelerator pedals and some possible property damage. We are investigating each of the claims. None of the claims we have received involved any reported injuries or fatalities. Q2. What are the specifics of the recalls? A2. On Jan. 27, the Vibe was added to the Toyota recall population from October 2009 for possible floor mat entrapment population. According to a National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) consumer advisory, when an accelerator pedal is depressed to or almost to the floor, as is done during attempts to merge onto a freeway or pass another vehicle at highway speeds, it can become trapped in the fully open position by an out of position or unsecured floor mat.
