hello i really appreciate being able to join and i just want to tell you why i joined. I purchased my vibe about 4 months ago from an individual in the air force all i know is that within 5 hrs of purchasing my Vibe was no longer running. I have no vehicle spent a good amount of money to either get it running or wat is causing it not to run. I don't know what to do next. I was really looking forward to being able to do alot of things with my vibe. Beach being able to work on projects etc. Im in need of some guidance about my vibe which direction should i go in right now i cant find anyone who knows anything about the vehicle its all alot of run around. I thought who better to help me sort this out than other vibe owners or enthusiasts What should i do?
First - update your profile with your location. There might be a member close enough to help you out directly.
Second - spacing out your panicked paragraph would have been easier to read. Write out what symptoms you have. Just saying it isn't running doesn't help much. Do it like this:
I have a <whatever year> Pontiac Vibe <version> (AWD, GT, Base), with a <type of transmission>, and <x numbers of miles>.
When I try to start the car, it clicks/does nothing/turns over without starting/explodes.
My radio does/does not work, the headlights do/do not work, etc.
Welcome to GenVibe. Also do you have records of what/where it's prior life was at? Why was it available for sale? Flooded car, wrecked, stolen, badly abused ???? Lots of unknowns that could help us help you. Location is very important especially if it spent most of its life in cold winter driving conditions (salt ,brine, etc.). More info soon so we can help you bet this Vibe back on the road.

Yes, because two drunks _always_ make car work go faster.

So far my car is still in one piece, and I even lightened it by removing some unneeded bolts.
