I do not recall what first caused me to be interested in the Vibe/Matrix, but when the near by Pontiac dealer had some 2009 AWD models arrive, I decided to check them out. Here in the Rocky Mountains, all wheel drive is a very valuable asset. I compared the Vibe and Matrix AWD "twins", and analyzed the deal available on each in my vicinity. The Vibe simply had the upper hand when all factors of interest to me were considered. I bought a white one after a lot of negotiating involving trading in my 2004 Jeep GC. It all worked out, and the Pontiac dealer wanted my business more than did the Toyota dealer. Done deal.

I got my new vibe last July. I found lots rusting dots around the rim of the car. Did anyone have this problem before? Would the warranty cover it? Also, my vibe's brake is very heavy, I mean I need to push it very hard to make a rapid stop. I am satisfactory with this car other than these problems.

Replying to: chz939 (Jun 15, 2008 4:59 am) I am pretty sure the rusting is covered under warranty.As for the brakes take it to a brake shop and find out.If its the master cylinder,its probably covered.If its the pads,shoes or wear and tear items then probably not.

Replying to: renatel (Jun 15, 2008 6:05 am) Thanks! Actually they are stains like rusts. I already scratch most of the stains with my nails. The brake is fine now. I had it checked today. The technician suggested that it might be due to the extra pad.
