That's scary! My vibe hasn't had that problem yet (only 8k miles on it now and its 9 months old)... Maybe it'll come up soon. *knock on wood*

common problem?

I just had my car washed and came home, its very nice outside and my car didn't get dirty again like during the winter... I noticed something odd. The front grille's silver lining had a crack.. From far apart, it looks like Pontiac used some cheap foil around the grill, but up close, it looks like t...

:(

My vibe got trapped in the middle of a bumper to bumper in a car wash because their belt to pull the cars got screwed up.. So I have nicks and stratches all over my front and back. Does anyone know where I could get the most expensive/best and the cheapest job done to fix these in Western NY area?

Two-Way Remote Starters

Are they really worth it? I really want one so badly but a few places have been trying to con me into thinking I need bypasses and extra crap for the two-way remote starters, after telling them that I know I don't need them- they reduce the price but it's still expensive... Ranges are from $275 - $4...

I got pulled over for the first time in my Vibey on Monday night when I was driving thru Ohio but the cop let me go (still extremely shocked about that, considering those cops are typically *******s)... So far, no ticket! ^_^

what I did was tint my rear windows for added security (17%) and used my soft cover whenever necessary.. I'd recommend that.

this is the vibey that survived the snow storm last night

I started out at 1pm from Rochester, New York (I go to school at RIT) with a friend who lived near me in Michigan. The first hour was a breeze to Buffalo, there we got some really nasty ice storm. I got a text message saying they might shut down the highway in Buffalo (don't know if that was true),...

Didn't really have a choice, my old '95 dodge intrepid was falling apart and my parental unit offered to help me get either the vibe or honda civic. They both had the same MPG so I thought I'd get the vibe for the extra space. I could also get more options on the vibe than on a civic because of the ...

New Member! ^_^

Hey guys! I just purchased my 2005 vibe back in August before I left to New York for school. I'm lovin' every single minute that I spend in my vibe. I had a '95 dodge intrepid before the vibe and what I dig the most is the moonroof and how the seats fold down to make space! Cheers!

Removing Swirl?

My neptune blue vibe has a little swirl on the front hood, it's been there since day one I bought it from the dealer- it's sooooo annoying! How do I get rid of it? Also I wash my vibe almost every week- how often should I do detailing and how do i do it? many thanks

I have custom pinstriping that was done on my car at the dealership before I bought it- I had originally thought it was ugly but it's grown on me. Has the western kinda look to it, pink & blue paint looks good on my neptune blue vibe.
