2006 Pontiac G6 complaints

MY 2006 PONTIAC G6 HAVE NOT HAD THE RECALLS OF N140152,14V224...BY SEARCH OF THE VIN ..NOW THE POWER STEERING LIGHT FLASHES ON RADIO SERVICE CENTER ON AND OFF...I AM WANTING TO KNOW HOW TO HAVE THIS FIXED BY RECALL BEFORE IT'S TO LATE..THIS HAPPENS ALL SPEEDS TURNING AND WHEN VEHICLE IS ON

ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS ON DASH CAME ON DURING A ROUTINE DRIVE, AND REMAIN ON. HAD MECHANIC INSPECT- CONCLUDED THAT BOTH SENSORS WORKING, MALFUNCTION DUE TO NO ELECTRICITY BEING DELIVERED. AS A RESULT, CRITICAL CRASH AVOIDANCE FEATURES (BOTH ANTI-LOCK BRAKE AND TRACTION CONTROL ARE CRITICAL) ARE DISABLED / FAILING. REPAIR WOULD REQUIRE TRACING WIRE BACK TO POINT OF ISSUE. BEFORE HAVING A PRIVATE MECHANIC ADDRESS, I LEARNED OF RECALL FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V252000) EFFECTIVE AUG 18, 2014, WHEREBY GM TO ADDRESS WIRING HARNESS WITH SPACERS AND DIELECTRICAL LUBRICANT. CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS ON THIS AND TOLD NO OPEN RECALL; TOLD THAT IT WAS ALREADY ADDRESSED BY SERVICE AT DEVAN CHEVROLET, WILTON CT ON AUG 13, 2015. I DO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I HAD THE CAR AT THAT DEALER / SERVICE CENTER ON THAT DATE FOR ANOTHER MATTER- I HAD NO ISSUES OR SYMPTOMS WITH ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL WHILE ITS POSSIBLE THAT DURING THAT VISIT THEY ACTIONED THE REMEDY DETAILED IN THE RECALL, HOWEVER, AS THERE WAS NO NOTED ISSUE AT THAT TIME, I AM NOT SURE THEY DID ANYTHING THAT MADE A DIFFERENCE. NOW THAT THE SYMPTOMS ARE PERSISTENT, GM APPEARS TO DECLARE NO REPAIR IS REQUIRED UNDER THE RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL - MY SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND IS STAYING LIT WITH A MESSAGE ALSO DISPLAYING ON MY RADIO "SERVICE AIRBAG". THIS MALFUNCTION WARNS ME AS SOON AS I TURN THE CAR ON, WHILE DRIVING, AND REMAINS IN EFFECT. MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD!

GOT IN MY CAR AND HAD NO POWER STEERING. LOOKED UP MY CARS RECALLS BY VIN AND THEY SAY 0 RECALLS BUT IT SAYS ON ALL OTHER WEBSITES THERE IS. SO I WAS JUST WONDERING IF MAYBE IT WAS A MISTAKE.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: ON NOVEMBER 03, 2017, MY 2006 PONTIAC G6 GTP, AUTOMOBILE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT THAT FLIPPED AND CRASHED AND CAUSING SERIOUS INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS GOING STRAIGHT ON THE HWY AND THE CAR LOST STEERING POWER AND THE CAR WENT TO THE RIGHT OF THE HWY. I WAS SURPRISED TO LEARN AT THAT TIME THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL RECALLS ISSUED ON THIS VEHICLE. SINCE PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE IN 2013, I HAVE ONLY RECEIVED ONE RECALL NOTICE IN 2015 AND I TOOK MY PONTIAC 06 G6 GTP TO OAKS GMC DEALER TO BE FIXED BY GM, AND I WAS NOT AWARE OF ANY OTHER RECALLS ABOUT THE POWER STEERING UNTIL I FOUND RESEARCH THROUGH NHTSA AFTER THE ACCIDENT, NHTSA RECALL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER 15V064000,

I'VE GOT A 2006 PONTIAC G6 2.4 AN THE TRANSMISSION WILL SHIFT HARD SOMETIMES FROM PARK TO REVERSE NOT IN NEUTRAL BUT FROM NEUTRAL TO DRIVE AN IT WILL SHIFT HARD WHEN I'M DRIVING NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS

POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND CAR BECAME UNSTABLE CAUSING MY CAR TO WOBBLE AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE COULDN'T GET IT REPAIRED WAS TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL ON CAR AND PARTS. ALMOST WREAKED MY CAR WHEN POWER STEERING WENT OUT ON THE INTERSTATE AND WAS ALMOST HIT BY 18 WHEELER HAD TO CALL FOR SOMEONE TO ASSIST TO GET CAR HOME. UNABLE TO DRIVE SAFELY.

TAKATA RECALL MY CAR SMELLS A LOT LIKE GASOLINE. EVERY TIME I TURN IT ON IT STARTS SMELLING LIKE A STRONG ODOR OF GAS.IT SMELLS MORE WHEN I'M DRIVING ON THE STREET.

POWER STEERING IS GOING OUT AT TIMES, THEN AT TIMES ITS FINE

OWNER OF A 2006 PONTIAC G6. STRONG SMELL OF GAS COMING FROM THE CAR. IT TAKES A 2ND ATTEMPT TO START THE CAR AS WELL. I'VE SEEN THERE ARE MANY OTHERS OVER THE YEARS WITH THE EXACT SAME EXPERIENCE BUT NO RECALL EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS A RECALL ON OTHER YEARS FOR THE SAME ISSUE BUT NOT THE 2006. SINCE WE'RE LONG PAST ANY WARRANTY, I HAD HOPES OF A RECALL BUT SINCE THERE ISN'T, I'M LOOKING AT OVER $1000 FOR PARTS AND LABOR TO FIX THE FUEL PUMP LINE NOW RIGHT BEFORE THE HOLIDAYS. MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER HAS BEEN DRIVING THIS CAR AND IT'S SCARY TO THINK WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED.

I HAVE HAD HIS PROBLEM LOOKED AT A FIXED EVERY SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW. THE BRAKE LIGHTS BLINK OFF AND ON WHEN YOU GO TO BRAKE YOU HAVE NO LIGHTS AT ALL. THE WHOLE TIME YOUR DRIVING THEY BLINK OFF AND ON. CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN ON THE INTERSTATE . SEMI KEPT HONKING AND POINTING TO THE BACK LOOKED OUT REAR VIEW MIRROR AND BOULDER SEE THEM FLASHING.

RECALL 13036 INCLUDING SPECIAL COVERAGE 16188 DID NOT FIX MY VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE HAS THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS... -SERVICE BRAKE LAMPS ILLUMINATE WHEN THE SERVICE BRAKES ARE NOT BEING APPLIED -SERVICE BRAKE LAMPS WILL NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN THE SERVICE BRAKES ARE APPLIED -CRUISE CONTROL WILL NOT ENGAGE (THE ABOVE CONDITIONS HAVE HAPPENED WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION, STATIONARY, ON STREETS, HIGHWAYS, TURNING AND BRAKING.) -VEHICLE WILL SHIFT OUT OF PARK WITHOUT THE SERVICE BRAKES BEING APPLIED THESE ABOVE CONDITIONS ARE THE EXACT CONDITIONS THAT RECALL 13036 WAS TO HAVE FIXED. THE DEALERSHIP ADDRESSED THIS RECALL EARLIER THIS YEAR, AND THE VEHICLE IS STILL HAVING PROBLEMS. I CANNOT GET MY VEHICLE BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT IS A VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW TO DELIVER THE VEHICLE TO ME UNTIL THE DEFECT IS REMEDIED. SERVICE TECHNICIAN SAYS THE BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE) NEEDS REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WENT IN FOR RECALL, THE RECALL DIDNT FIX THE PROBLEM. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK AND AM TOLD THAT 1) THE PROBLEM IS THE BCM AND 2) I CANT HAVE THE VEHICLE BACK UNTIL THE PROBLEM IS FIXED. I AM NOT SATISFIED. THE VEHICLE PROBLEM IS NOT REMEDIED. I AM HAVING TO PAY TO GET THE VEHICLE REMEDIED. PONTIAC CUSTOMER SERVICE REFERS ME TO THE NHTSA. THE VEHICLE IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO THE DRIVER AND ANY PASSENGERS, AS WELL AS FELLOW MOTORISTS AROUND THE VEHICLE. I AM UPSET THAT A LARGE CORPORATION WOULD NOT TAKE THE TIME TO MAKE SURE MY VEHICLE IS SAFE, AFTER NOT FIXING A RECALL. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NU

JUST RECENTLY I HAD MY PONTIAC, 2006, G-6 REPAIRED AT THE CHEVY DEALER. THEY COULDN'T FIND ANY FUEL LEAK UNTIL THE WERE GOING TO DROP THE FUEL TANK. THERE THEY FOUND THE FUEL LEAK. THEY REMOVED THE FUEL PUMP AND REPLACED A NEW FUEL PUMP. I HAD CALLED GM PONTIAC TO CHECK ON THE PONTIAC, 2006 G-6 RECALL. THEY SAID THERE ARE NO PONTIAC G-6 RECALLS. I TOLD THEM THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS FOR THE 2006 PONTIAC STATING THAT THE FUEL PUMP LEAKS. ACCORDING TO AIRTEC THEY DID A RECALL ON THEIR FUEL PUMPS MODEL NO. E3591M. THIS PUMP LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE THE PUMP THEY TOOK OUT. THEY STATED THE FUEL PUMP SEAL WILL LEAK GAS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT NOTICED A FUEL LEAK UNDERNEATH THE REAR CENTER END OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE, THE VEHICLE WOULD "KICK" BEFORE ACCELERATING FORWARD AND STALL WHEN INITIALLY ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO TURN THE IGNITION KEY A FEW TIMES BEFORE THE VEHICLE WOULD SUCCESSFULLY START. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT FUEL WAS LEAKING INTO THE EXHAUST DUE TO A FAULTY FUEL PUMP AND FRACTURE ON THE SEAL TO THE FUEL TANK. THE MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE SEAL AND/OR THE FUEL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 134,000.

DRIVING ON WAY HOME FROM WORK, WHOLE TRIP NOTHING OVER 45 MPH, THE TRACTION CONTROL OFF LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. ITS THE LIGHT WITH TC AND A SLASH TROUGH IT. THE LIGHT TURNS OFF WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK OR NEUTRAL BUT COMES ON WHEN SHIFTER IS IN REVERSE OR DRIVE. AFTER THE LIGHT CAME ON I NOTICED EXTREMELY SLUGGISH ENGINE PERFORMANCE, EXTREMELY HARD SHIFTING ALL THE WAY THROUGH 4TH GEAR WITH BAD SLAMS COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION. AFTER ABOUT 30 MINS OF DRIVING WITH THE LIGHT STILL ON, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND I CAN BARELY GET GOING FROM A STOP LIGHT. I PARKED IT FOR THE NIGHT TO WORK ON IT THE NEXT DAY, AND TO MY SURPRISE THE NEXT MORNING THE TC OFF LIGHT WAS GONE AND AFTER ABOUT 10 MINS OF DRIVING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES OUT AND THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES LIKE NORMAL. THE NEXT DAY IT ALL HAPPENED OVER AGAIN WITH ALL THE SAME ISSUES AND THEN THE WARNING LIGHTS WENT OUT AGAIN AND THE CAR RAN FINE. THEN FOR A THIRD DAY IT ALL HAPPENED AGAIN AND NOW THE ENGINE SEEMS TO HAVE NO POWER, I MIGHT AS WELL BE PUSHING THE CAR DOWN THE STREET. THIS HAPPENED IN THE MIDDLE OF MY DRIVES ON A NORMAL NO WET WEATHER DAY. THE DEALERSHIP AND A PRIVATE GARAGE TRIED READING THE CODES THROUGH THE CONNECTOR UNDER MY STEARING WHEEL AND NO BODIES READER CAN CONNECT TO THE ECU. I CHECKED ALL THE FUSES AND RELAYS AND NONE ARE BLOWN OR DAMAGED. I KNOW THE G6 HAD RECALLS FOR THIS ISSUE A FEW YEARS AGO AND MY CAR WASN'T INCLUDED IN THIS BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE THE SAME ISSUE. I CAN GET UNDER THE

WARNING APPEARS EVERY TIME YOUR START THE VEHICLE INDICATING A PROBLEM WITH THE POWER STEERING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN AT A PARKING LOT OF A SCHOOL, THE CONTACT DROVE VERY SLOWLY AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE BRAKE PEDAL FAILED TO RESPOND WHEN DEPRESSED AND IN ADDITION THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED TO AN UNKNOWN SPEED. THE POWER STEERING FAILED TO TURN LEFT OR RIGHT. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE CAUSED THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE TO CRASH INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE, WHICH MADE THE VEHICLE COME TO A STOP. ONLY THE AIR BAG ON THE POWER STEERING WHEEL DEPLOYED. THE OTHER AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED A BACK INJURY THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 14V252000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL), 14V153000 (STEERING) AND 14V224000 (POWER TRAIN) HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED AND WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED ON ANY TYPE OF SURFACE, TRYING TO MAINTAIN A STRAIGHT DIRECTION, THE STEERING WHEEL MAKES SMALL JERKS IN ONE DIRECTION, THEN RELEASES JUST AS YOU HAVE COMPENSATED FOR THE INITIAL JERK CAUSING YOU TO MOVE ABRUPTLY TO THE OTHER DIRECTION. THIS CONTINUES CAUSING YOU TO MAKE ONGOING SMALL CORRECTIONS AND YOUR OVERALL PATH TO ZIG-ZAG. THIS ALONE HAS NEARLY CAUSED ME TO COLLIDE WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC WHILE DRIVING ON NARROW ROADS. OCCASIONALLY, THE POWER STEERING ASSIST STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY, REQUIRING ADDITIONAL EFFORT TO STEER THE VEHICLE. THERE ARE RECALLS FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM (TORQUE SENSOR ASSEMBLY) IN THE SAME MAKE/MODEL/YEAR JUST NOT FOR MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE (GM TELLS ME, MY VEHICLE'S MANUFACTURED DATE DOES NOT FALL INTO THE RECALL, EVEN THOUGH IT IS THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM).

POWER STEERING LIGHT ON. GM PONTIAC CUSTOMER SERVICE BEING UNPROFESSIONAL. RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED ON SIMILAR AUTOS.

FIRST THERE IS A MESSAGE THAT POPS UP ON MY DASHBOARD SAYING ABOUT MY AIRBAG WARNING. IT POPS UP THROUGHTOUT MY DRIVE. ITS BEEN DOING THIS SINCE I BOUGHT MY CAR IN 2008. BUT I MEVER GOT A RECALL PAPER IN THE MAIL AND WHEN I PUT MY VIN NUMBER IN, IT HAS NO RECALLS FOR THE AIRBAG. ITS ALARMING AND SCARY HEARING ABOUT OTHER PEOPLES COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME ISSUES. SECONDLY I GOT A LETTER IN THE MAIL FROM GMC OR SOMETHING ABOUT A RECALL ON MY CAR. IT HAD TO DO WITH MY BREAK LIGHTS COMING ON AUTOMATICALLY WHILE I HAD MY CAR IN THE PARK POSITION. I WAS EXCITED TO FINALLY GET IT FIXED BUT WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE GMC MECHANICS IN ALBANY OREGON THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. HOWEVER TILL THIS DAY I CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS ISSUE. THE BRAKE LIGHTS TURN ON AND STAY ON WHILE IM DRIVING. IVE HAD SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO WERE DRIVING BEHIND ME TELL ME THE SAME THING. I JUST GOT BACK FROM VACATION AND WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY FOR A LONG TIME, I STOPPED AT THE REST AREA AND AN OLDER GENTLEMAN CAME UP TO ME AND TOLD ME MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ON THE WHOLE TIME FOR THE LAST 30 MILES HE WAS BEHIND ME. IF I GOT A LETTER CONCERNING MY BRAKES THEN WHY ARENT THEY WILLING TO FIX MY PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL. MY DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND WILL NOT GO OFF. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE SHOP WHO SAYS THAT IT IS A SENSOR. I REPLACED THE SENSOR AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT STILL WILL NOT GO OFF. THE AIRBAGS HAVE BEEN RECALLED BUT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT ON THE LIST.

THERE ARE 3 DIFFERENT AREAS THAT I ASSUME ARE THE CAUSE OF MY CAR'S PROBLEMS. FIRST THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG IS HAS STAYED OFF, REGARDLESS OF PASSENGERS BEING PRESENT SINCE 2014, I BELIEVE. USING THE KEY DOES NOT CHANGE THE AIR BAG STATUS. ALSO THIS MAY BE PART OF THE ELECTRICAL AREA, BUT AT AROUND THE SAME TIME MY CRUISE CONTROL ALSO MALFUNCTIONED. THE CAR WAS IN MOTION WHEN I REALIZED BOTH THINGS. ALSO I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH TRACTION CONTROL COMING ON OUT OF NO WHERE, AND INSTEAD OF THE ENGINE SPEED BEING REDUCED, THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE AT ALL. SOMETIMES IT WILL LIKE RESET AFTER I PULL OVER AND WAIT FOR OVER 10 MINUTES, BUT IT WILL COME BACK ON REPEATEDLY. I HAVE TO PULL OVER WAIT RESTART, PULL OVER WAIT RESTART SEVERAL TIMES WITHIN A USUAL 20 MINUTE DRIVE AT TIMES. ALSO I'M HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE AIR COMPRESSOR STAYING ENGAGED. MY CAR KIND OF BOGS DOWN WHEN THE COMPRESSOR DOES KICK IN, AND IT REPEATEDLY KICKS ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING ANY DISTANCE AT ALL. ALSO THE INTERIOR LIGHTS FLICKER CONSTANTLY. THE MESSAGE CENTER ON THE RADIO CONSTANTLY SAYS THAT I HAVE LOW COOLANT, BUT THAT IS AN ERROR MESSAGE. IN THE SUSPENSION AREA MY WHOLE FRONT END(STRUTS, BALL BEARINGS, ETC) SEEM TO BE BAD. WHEN I DRIVE OVER A SMALL BUMP THE WHOLE CAR SHUTTERS AND PULLS WILDLY TO ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER. IT FEELS LIKE MY TIRES HIT INTO THE RIM ITSELF OVER SPEED BUMPS WHEN I AM DRIVING MERELY 10 MILES PER HOUR.

ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY. DRIVER UNSURE IF CAR IS OK OR NOT. BOTH LITES AT THE SAME TIME. ALSO, SEATBELT WARNING LITE/CHIME DO NOT GO AWAY EVEN WHEN BUCKLED.

ELCTRONIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM FAILING HIGH WINDING SOUNDS WHEN THE STEWRONG WHEEL IS TURNED AND FAILING ELECTRONIC SYSTEM VEHICLE SAYS VENT VALVE SELENOID IS BAD, CHANGED IT OUT AND CLEARED THE CODE AND ERROR STILL COMES BACK, ALSO. RIGHT PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHTS ARE DIMLY LIT AND THERE IS SOME SORT OF VOLTAGE PROBLEM GOING ON?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SHIFTER DID NOT MOVE OUT OF PARK GEAR UNLESS THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED SEVERAL TIMES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED EVERY DAY FOR APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC OR A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT THE VIN WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 109,197.

MY VEHICLE HAS HAD AT LEAST POWER STEERING ASSIST FAILURES SINCE NEW. IT WAS REPAIRED UNDER RECALL THE LAST TIME IT WAS WORKED ON AND PERFORMED AS EXPECTED UNTIL MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING IT HOME FROM WORK ONE EVENING AND ONCE AGAIN THE STEERING WENT OUT. THIS HAPPENED WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING AT BETWEEN 55 AND 60 MPH, AND COULD NOT STEER THE VEHICLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD. SINCE THEN I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A DEALER AND TALKED TO GM AND PONTIAC ABOUT THE ISSUE. THEY ALL CLAIM SINCE IT WAS REPAIRED UNDER RECALL AND ALMOST 2 YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE THE REPAIR WAS MADE THAT I AM ON MY OWN. THEY REFUSE TO HELP OR MAKE GOOD ON THEIR REPAIR CLAIMING THAT THEY APPARENTLY ARE ALRIGHT WITH A NEW PART FAILING AT ABOUT 24 MONTHS AND ABOUT 50,000 MILES AS THEY STATE SINCE THE RECALL REPAIR. GIVEN THE HISTORY OF THE PROBLEM, I FEEL I AM BEING UNFAIRLY IGNORED IN MY REQUEST FOR REPAIRS TO BE MADE AGAIN UNDER THE RECALL SINCE APPARENTLY THE INSTALLED PARTS WERE DEFECTIVE.

I RECEIVED A LETTER IN MARCH OF 2017 ADVISING ME OF A POSSIBLE PROBLEM WITH A BCM COULD CAUSE A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE LIGHTS OF MY VEHICLE. THE LETTER STATES THAT I SHOULD NOT TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER FOR REPAIRS UNLESS I WAS CERTAIN THE PROBLEM EXISTED. THE LETTER WENT ON TO EXPLAIN THAT GM WOULD EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON THIS VEHICLE TO COVER THE NEEDED REPAIRS IF THE PROBLEM WERE TO SHOW AS LONG AS IT WAS LESS THAN 15 YEARS, OR 150,000 MILES FROM THE DATE THE VEHICLE WAS ORIGINALLY PUT IN TO SERVICE. THE THING THAT INSULTS ME IS THAT I HAD THE VEHICLE IN A DEALER SHOP A COUPLE OF MONTHS PRIOR TO GETTING THIS LETTER TO HAVE A POWER STEERING PROBLEM DIAGNOSED. ANYTIME A VEHICLE IS TAKEN TO A DEALER THE MILEAGE IS RECORDED AND THEREFORE GM KNEW, OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BEFORE SENDING THE LETTER THAT MY VEHICLE WAS ALREADY BEYOND THE MILEAGE THEY WERE ALLOWING IN THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. IF THIS WAS SUCH A PROBLEM I WOULD THING GM SHOULD COVER IT NO MATTER THE AMOUNT OF TIME ON THE ROAD OR THE NUMBER OF MILES. ATTACHED ARE BOTH THE DEALER SHOP TICKET SHOWING THE VIN, DATE AND MILEAGE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED FOR A STEERING ISSUE, AND THE EXTENDED WARRANTY LETTER LIMITING THE MILEAGE TO LESS THAN WHAT GM SHOULD HAVE KNOWN WAS ON THE VEHICLE WHEN THE LETTER WAS MAILED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 PONTIAC G6. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE POWER STEERING FAILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME STIFF WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 163,000.

TAKATA RECALL. BUT NOT ONLY THE AIR BAGS. THERE IS A CLICKING NOISE WHEN I STEERING, SOMETIMES CAUSING THE AIR BAG LIGHT TO COME ON. THERE IS A VIBRATING COMING FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT WHEN AT SPEED THAT SHAKES THE STEERING WHEEL EVEN AFTER THE TIRES ARE BALANCED AND THE STRUTS AND TIE RODS WERE REPLACED. IF I GRAB THE STEERING WHEEL WITH BOTH HANDS, IT MOVES UP AND DOWN. WHEN PARALLEL PARKING, THE POWER STEERING FAILS MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN THE WHEEL WITHOUT HITTING THE GAS AND PUTTING THE CAR IN MOTION. I'VE NOTICED IN MY RESEARCH THAT OTHER G6 MODELS OF THIS YEAR AND SURROUNDING YEARS WERE RECALLED FOR ALL OF THE PROBLEMS I AM HAVING. WHEN I ASKED THE PERSON AT CHEVY DEALER ABOUT IT, SHE TOLD ME I WAS OUT OF LUCK UNTIL THE VIN POPS UP IN THEIR SYSTEM. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPING SINCE MY WIFE GOT THE CAR IN 2007 APPARENTLY, AND SINCE WE JUST HAD A BABY, WE ARE LOOKING INTO IT MORE. I'VE BEEN WAITING ON THE RECALLS TO BE EXPANDED TO HER VIN, BUT NOTHING. IS THERE ANYTHING WE CAN DO, OTHER THAN PAYING TO REBUILD THE WHOLE STEERING SYSTEM OF WHICH OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS WERE COVERED? THANKS FOR ANY HELP.

VEHICLE HAS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WHERE IT LOSES POWER AND STALLS WHILE DRIVING. AFTER A FEW MINUTES WE ARE ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR
