Re: 2009+ Vibe Oil Consumption?

Any idea if the 2010 2.4 liter Vibe has the issue? I am guessing no as the 2010 Matrix seems clear. Mine doesn't seem to at 85,000 miles, but I do have an possible oil related issue: I'm generally a pretty gentle driver. But when I rev high (floor it) for a spell (8 seconds) I smell something like o...

Powertrain Warranty Expires soon - Any issues to check?

Just realized that my 2010 Vibe 2.4l (5 speed auto) is almost 5 years old (72,000 miles) meaning that the powertrain warranty ends next week. As I don't know that much about car mechanics, I'm seeking the forum's advice for particular trouble spots I might want to check or have checked before the ex...

Re: Question about factory alarm/keyless

Anyone finally figure out how to make the horn honk or something "chirp" when the doors are locked yet?

Re: Mystery parts on Vibe 2010? Airbag sensors??

Unfortunately the forum cropped my photo differently than the original....

I am specifically talking about the black parts that the grommets are holding to the bumper reinforcement bar. Here's another photo of one of them.

Mystery parts on Vibe 2010? Airbag sensors??

Hi Does anyone know what these two parts are and what they do? (see attached photo) They can be seen when looking under hood at front interior metal bumper reinforcement and are located on the drivers side. Are they airbag sensors? As I bought the car used, and it has been in a crash from previous o...

Recommended center Armrest cushion
