2007 Pontiac G6 complaints

WHILE DRIVING THROUGH A TUNNEL WHICH COMES UP TO A SHARP BEND A LITTLE AFTER EXITING AT ABOUT 45 MILES PER HOUR I FELT LIKE I WAS NOT IN CONTROL OF MY CAR AS IT FELT AS IF IT WAS LOCKING UP AND MOVING IN ITS OWN DIRECTION. SO I HIT THE BRAKES (JUST GOT BRAKES DONE) TO SLOW DOWN A BIT BUT IT DIDN'T SEEM TO BRAKE QUICK ENOUGH FOR ME TO FEEL SAFE. SO BEFORE COMING TO THE BEND THERE IS ANOTHER EXIT TO GO INTO TOWN THAT I TOOK TO DRIVE AT A SLOWER SPEED. WHILE TAKING THAT WAY HOME I HAD LIGHTS TO STOP AT AND AS I ACCELERATE IT WAS HESITANT AT TIMES TO PICK UP. LASTLY EVERY TIME I START UP THE CAR THERE IS A TICKING NOISE THAT IS CONSISTENT WHICH I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS FROM. THE BRAKES MAY BE AN ISSUE WITH WHO DID MY BRAKES BUT THE POWER STEERING IS AN ISSUE AND WHEN I WAITED UNTIL TODAY TO CHECK THE FLUID I COULD NOT LOCATE SO I WENT ONLINE TO FIND OUT WHERE IT WAS AND COME TO FIND OUT I MAY HAVE AN ELECTRICAL ONE AND FOUND NUMEROUS REPORTS REGARDING POWER STEERING ISSUES. MY CAR DOES NOT FEEL SAFE TO ME AND IT IS NOW MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION TO WORK. *TR

BRAKE LIGHTS GO ON WHEN PEDAL IS NOT PRESSED, GOES OFF WHEN YOU STEP ON THE BRAKE. ALSO, CRUISE CONTROL SHUTS OFF AUTOMATICALLY WHILE DRIVING OR WILL NOT ENGAGE AT ALL. *TR

WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN ROAD WHICH I HAD MY CRUISE CONTROL, CRUISE CONTROL TURNED OFF BY ITSELF. FOUND OUT THAT MY BRAKES ARE STAYING ON AND NOT TURNING OFF. THEY HAVE BEEN STAYING ON OR THEY TURN ON WHEN I HIT GAS AND TURN OFF WHEN I HIT THE BRAKE. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR MONTHS!!!!!!!!!!! *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY COMING TO WORK, I WAS DRIVING AROUND 55 MPH AND MY CRUISE CONTROL AUTOMATICALLY CAME ON AND WAS STUCK. EVEN WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO HIT THE BRAKE MY CRUISE CONTROL WAS STUCK AT 55 MPH. I KEPT STOMPING THE BRAKES TILL IT FINALLY SHUT OFF! *TR

POWER STEERING INTERMITTENTLY STOPS WORKING. STEERING WHEEL MOVES ITSELF AT LOW SPEEDS. *TR

I HAD REAR ENDED SOMEBODY ON THE FREEWAY DOING APPROX 35 MPH. THE DAMAGE TO MY CAR INCLUDED FOLDED UP HOOD, PUNCTURED RADIATOR, BUSTED UP BUMPER AND BOTH HEADLIGHTS. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THERE LOOKED TO BE SUFFICIENT DAMAGE AND SPEED TO CAUSE THEM TO POP. NOT SURE WHY THEY DIDN'T. I HAD MY SEAT BELT ON BUT AM STILL VERY SORE FROM THE ACCIDENT AND IT JUST HAPPENED TODAY. *TR

I WAS DRIVING AND NOTICED THAT MY AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT WAS COMING ON. IT OCCASIONALLY COMES ON AND IT GOES OFF. I'M HAVING A ISSUE WITH SOMETHING UNDERNEATH MY CAR. I REPLACED TIEROD AND GOT TWO FRONT END ALIGNMENTS. SINCE PURCHASING THIS CAR IN OCTOBER 2013 I COMPLAINED TO DEALERSHIP MY CONCERNS FOR MY CAR NOT FEELING SAFE. IT SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING IN STEERING OR UNDERNEATH VEHICLE. MY THERMOSTAT GAUGE FLUCTUATES FROM ZERO DEGREES TO 220 DEGREES WHILE DRIVING. WATER PUMP WAS REPLACED AND IT STILL OCCURS. *TR

THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 126,000.

THE CAR CHIMES AND THE INFORMATION SCREEN ON THE RADIO WOULD DISPLAY *POWER STEERING*. THE STEERING WOULD LOCK UP COMPLETELY AND THE ONLY WAY TO CORRECT IT, IS TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN. THE STEERING ALSO TWITCHES AND SHAKES WHILE AT A STAND STILL. TWICE THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING. THREE DAYS BEFORE IT WAS SCHEDULED TO BE FIXED, THE STEERING WENT COMPLETELY OUT ON MY WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT GM NEEDS TO ADDRESS. *TR

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK, AND WHILE MERGING, THE POWER STEERING ALARM CAME ON AND THE POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING. I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITHOUT CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I TURNED THE CAR OFF, AND BACK ON. EVERYTHING SEEMED TO BE WORKING AGAIN AT THAT POINT. LESS THAN ONE MILE LATER, THE SAME ISSUE OCCURRED. THERE WAS NOT REALLY A SHOULDER TO PULL OVER TO AND I ENDED UP IN SOMEONE'S DRIVEWAY TO AVOID AND ACCIDENT, AS THIS WAS A VERY WELL TRAVELED ROUTE. LUCKILY, THERE WERE NO ACCIDENTS INVOLVED AND THAT MY DAUGHTER WAS NOT IN THE CAR WITH ME. THEY ENDED UP REPLACING THE WHOLE STEERING ASSEMBLY. IT HAD BEEN GIVING ME THE WARNINGS IN THE MORNING, WHICH WE THOUGHT WAS DUE TO THE COLD. WE DIDN'T REALIZE AT THE TIME THAT THE POWER STEERING WAS ELECTRICALLY CONTROLLED. I COULD NOT IMAGINE WHAT WOULD OF HAPPENED IF I WAS IN THE CITY AND DIDN'T HAVE THE ROOM TO PULL OVER, NOR THE SPEED TO DO IT. *TR

THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP WHILE IN USE AND SOMETIMES WHEN THE CAR SITS IDLE. THE STEERING IS ELECTRICAL SO THERE ISN'T A PLACE TO PUT POWER STEERING FLUID WHICH MAKES FOR A VERY DIFFICULT TIME TRYING TO TURN. I'VE HAD THE OUTER TIRE RODS REPLACED AS WELL AS THE RACK AND PINIONS AND NOW I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT THE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN HAS TO BE REPLACED. WHERE IS THE RECALL ON THIS CAR!!!! *TR

THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF WHEN THE STEERING COLUMN WAS TURNED COMPLETELY. THIS OF WHICH PUT MYSELF, AS WELL AS OTHER DRIVERS, IN JEOPARDY. LUCKILY, THIS OCCURRED IN A PARKING LOT WITH NO OTHER CARS AROUND. IF THIS OCCURRED ON A HIGHWAY TURN-AROUND OR UNDER DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES, MANY PEOPLE COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING WITH MY SON IN THE CAR AND THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING. THERE WAS A DINGING AND THE WORDS POWER STEERING CAM UP ON MY SCREEN. THIS HAPPEN TWICE IN A 1 MILE. THE WEEK PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING I WOULD START THE CAR AND A DINGING WOULD HAPPEN. IT SAID POWER STEERING ON THE SCREEN AND I COULD NOT MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. THESE CARS NEED TO BE RECALLED THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!!! *TR

BRAKE LIGHTS WERE COMING ON WITH OUT HITTING THE BRAKES. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND PEOPLE WERE YELLING AT ME THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS WERE CONSTANTLY ON. I PULLED IT INTO THE SHOP AND THEY WERE ON WHEN THEY SHOULDN'T BE AND WENT OFF WHEN I HIT THE BRAKES. THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL NOT ENGAGE. I HAVE HAD THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH REPLACED AND IT IS STILL DOING THE SAME THING. *TR

WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON THE INTERSTATE MY BRAKE LIGHTS CAME ON WITHOUT ANY APPLICATION TO THE BRAKES AND MY CRUISE CONTROL DIS-ENGAGED. MY BRAKE LIGHTS REMAINED ON ALL THE WAY HOME AND MY CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT WORK. THE NEXT DAY THEY WERE WORKING NORMAL AT FIRST AND THEN THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. *TR

CAR STARTED SMELLING LIKE GASOLINE AROUND HALOWEEN TIME. SMELL JUST KEPT GETTING STRONGER AS TIME WENT BY. I WOULD HAVE TROUBLE STARTING THE VEHICLE AND NOW THERE IS GASOLINE DRIPPING FROM THE TANK WHILE THE CAR IS PARKED. *TR

2007 PONTIAC G6 I'VE HAD SINCE 2009. WITHIN THE LAST YEAR OR TWO, THE BRAKE LIGHTS APPEAR TO BE ON WHILE THE BRAKE IS NOT BEING PRESSED. ONCE THE BRAKE PEDAL IS PRESSED, LIGHTS GO OFF THEN TAKE A COUPLE SECONDS AND TURN BACK ON. DANGEROUS FOR DRIVERS BEHIND SINCE THEY CAN'T TELL WHEN I AM ACTUALLY BRAKING OR NOT. IT BASICALLY JUST SEEMS LIKE I AM RIDING THE BRAKES CONSTANTLY! *TR

2007 PONTIAC G6 (VALUE LEADER 4 CYL,) BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON WHILE DRIVING AND GO OFF WHEN STEPPING ON THE BRAKE. SHIFTING FROM PARK DIFFICULT AT TIMES WHILE STEPPING ON THE BRAKE. BRAKE LIGHTS SPORADICALLY WORK PROPERLY. *TR

THE CAR'S BRAKE LIGHT DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY. THE BRAKE LIGHT MAY BE ON WHEN I'M NOT PRESSING THE BRAKE, BUT IT MAY OR MAY NOT GOES OFF WHEN I PRESS IT. MY FRIENDS DROVE BEHIND US AND HE CAN'T JUDGE IF I'M BRAKING OR NOT ACCORDING TO THE BRAKE LIGHT. IT WOULD BE DANGEROUS WHEN I DRIVE ON HIGHWAY. *TR

THE DEALER REPLACED AND CODED THE IGNITION SWITCH CYLINDER AS A REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,716 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 61,020. UPDATED 04/29/14 MA THE CONSUMER NOTICED THE IGNITION WAS NOT IN THE OFF POSITION, WHEN HE RETURNED TO THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER FOUND THE IGNITION CYLINDER AND SWITCH NOT READING PROPERLY WHEN THE CAR WAS IN GEAR. UPDATED 04/29/14

A COUPLE OF TIMES THIS PAST YEAR AFTER MY VEHICLE HIT 75K MILES, MY STEERING HAS LOCKED UP CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO PULL ON THE WHEEL VERY HARD JUST TO MAKE THE TURN WHICH A BIT OF A CONCERN. THANKFULLY NO ACCIDENT RESULTING FROM THIS. I HAVE NOT HAD THIS PROBLEM IN THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS. HOWEVER I HAVE ALSO HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE BRAKE LIGHTS. A FRIEND WHO WAS FOLLOWING ME ADVISED THAT MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE TURNING ON EVEN WHEN I WASN'T BRAKING. ADDITIONALLY, IN JULY OF 2013 (MY VEHICLE WAS AT ABOUT 70K MILES) WE BEGAN SMELLING GASOLINE COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. WE TOOK IT TO GET THE CAR REPAIRED AND THE MECHANIC IDENTIFIED THAT MY FUEL PUMP WAS LEAKING GASOLINE AND HAD TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACED WHICH COST ABOUT $1000. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS NOW COME ON AGAIN AND I AM TAKING IT THIS WEEK TO GET IT INSPECTED. THE CAR JERKS WHEN MOVING IT FROM PARK INTO GEAR, AND WHEN DRIVING THE TIMING SEEMS TO BE OFF WHEN ACCELERATING. *TR

MY POWER STEERING FROZE WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES SINCE THIS INCIDENT. *TR

EVERY SO OFTEN, EITHER WHEN I FIRST START MY G6 OR AFTER ITS BEEN DRIVING FOR AWHILE, THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL COME ON EVEN WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS NOT BEING PRESSED. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, IT PULLS ME OUT OF CRUISE CONTROL, BECAUSE IT THINKS I'M BRAKING, AND CARS BEHIND ME WILL HONK AND FLASH THEIR LIGHTS. I READ THAT THIS WAS A RECALL ON 2005 AND 2006 PONTIAC G6S BUT I BELIEVE THIS PROBLEM WENT INTO THE 2007 MODEL YEAR ALSO. THIS HAPPENS SEVERAL TIMES A YEAR AT RANDOM, ALTHOUGH IF THERE'S BEEN RAIN OR SNOW, IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE FREQUENTLY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD INDEPENDENTLY STALL WITHOUT WARNING.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,000.

ON SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 2011, I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WHEN I LOST CONTROL OF MY 2007 PONTIAC G6. THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED IN THE AFTERNOON, THE WEATHER WAS CLEAR AND THERE WAS NO PRECIPITATION. I WAS TRAVELING SOUTHBOUND, IN THE LEFT LANE, PASSING A VEHICLE, WHEN SUDDENLY I LOST CONTROL OF MY 2007 PONTIAC G6. THE CAR FELT LIKE IT STARTED TO SWERVE TO THE RIGHT. I TRIED TO CORRECT IT AND THE STEERING WAS HARD, I COULDN'T MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AND HAD NO CONTROL OF THE CAR. IT WAS VERY SCARY, AS I SWERVED BACK AND FORTH AND FINALLY CROSSED THROUGH THE RIGHT LANE. LUCKILY MY CAR WAS STOPPED BY A GUARD RAIL AND WAS FACING NORTHBOUND. THE DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE WITH A FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH AND REPLACED IT. THIS WAS THE SCARIEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE. I SAW MY LIFE FLASH IN FRONT OF ME, THERE WERE SEVERAL VEHICLES TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AND I ENVISIONED A PILE UP. LUCKILY, THE OTHER DRIVERS WERE ABLE TO AVOID HITTING MY VEHICLE. PLEASE CONSIDER ADDING THE 2007 PONTIAC G6 TO THE RECALL THAT WAS RECENTLY ANNOUNCED, WHICH INCLUDED THE 2007 PONTIAC G5. THIS ALMOST COST ME MY LIFE. *TR

I CANNOT REMOVE MY KEY FROM THE IGNITION IN THE MORNING BEFORE MY CAR WARMS UP. IF I STOP TO GET GAS IN THE MORNING, I HAVE TO LEAVE THE KEY IN THE IGNITION BECAUSE IT GETS STUCK IN THE KEY IGNITION. ONLY AFTER MY CAR WARMS UP WILL I BE ABLE TO REMOVE MY KEY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AROUND CURVE TO THE LEFT POWER STEERING LOCKED UP AND I CRASHED INTO A MAILBOX CAUSING $800 DOLLARS DAMAGE TO MY CAR. *TR

NOTICED GASOLINE SMELL BEHIND THE CAR AND FOUND GAS LEAKING FROM UNDER THE GAS TANK. THIS IS INTERESTING BECAUSE I TOOK THE CAR TO LOCAL GM DEALERSHIP THIS WEEKEND ON 2/22/14 FOR SERVICE AND THEY INDICATED THAT THEY HAD FOUND A SHORTED FUEL TANK PRESSURE SENSOR. HOW IS IT THAT THEY DIDN'T NOTICED THE GAS LEAKING. IN REVIEWING OTHER COMPLAINTS WITH THE G6, THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS CAR WHERE THERE IS A PLASTIC LINE ON THE FUEL PUMP WHICH DEVELOPS THE LEAK. NOT SURE HOW LONG THIS CAR HAS BEEN LEAKING GASOLINE AND WE HAD NOT NOTICED IT BEFORE. *TR

SMALL STREAM OF WHITE SMOKE BEGAN TO EMIT FROM THE STEERING COLUMN, SUDDENLY THE CHIME WENT ON AND THE POWER STEERING FAILED. DROVE VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP WHO ADVISED ME THE ISSUE IS A COMMON ELECTRICAL FAILURE IN G6 MODELS AND THAT SEVERAL OTHER YEARS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUE, BUT NOT 2007. DEALER ADVISED ME TO HOLD ON TO THE RECEIPT FOR REIMBURSEMENT IN THE EVENT THAT GM DOES RECALL THE 2007 MODEL. AFTER WAITING NEARLY TWO YEARS, I DECIDED TO ISSUE A LETTER TO GM REQUESTING REIMBURSEMENT. ON 2/6/14 I WAS CONTACTED BY GM CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES WHO EXPLAINED A RECALL WAS NOT IN PLACE AND THEREFORE THEY WOULD NOT REIMBURSE. I WAS FURTHER ADVISED BY GM REPRESENTATIVE 'JOSEPH' THAT GM IS "NOT A CHARITY" AND THAT I WOULD JUST HAVE TO "DEAL WITH IT." IN A FINAL EFFORT TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE I REQUESTED A VOUCHER TOWARD A NEW GM PURCHASE INSTEAD OF REIMBURSEMENT AS SIGN OF GOOD-FAITH THAT GM WOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS; THIS REQUEST WAS ALSO DENIED. GM REPRESENTATIVES ALSO REFUSED TO ISSUE ME A WRITTEN EXPLANATION OF DENIAL. I AM ABLE TO PROVIDE A COPY OF THE SERVICE INVOICE AND PROOF OF OWNERSHIP AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. *TR

I JUST HIT MY 80K MILES. GENERAL MOTORS EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR EMISSIONS TO 100K ON 2.3 ENGINE'S. I HAVE 3.5 ENGINE. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON; TEST SHOWED CADILLAC CONVERTER. I TELEPHONED #1 COCHRAN IN MONROEVILLE 5X AND NEVER RECEIVED A RETURN CALL TO DO EMISSIONS TEST ON MACHINE. THIS IS WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR NEW. THEN I TELEPHONED BOWSER PONTIAC AND THEY COULDN'T GET ME AN APPT TILL WEEKS BECAUSE THEY WERE BUSY AND HAD EMPLOYEES THAT KEPT CALLING OFF. I HAD MY MECHANIC DO THE EMISSION'S TEST, HE MADE A REPORT SHOWING THIS ISSUE. I CALLED GM AND EXPLAINED IF THEY CAN DO THE CUSTOMER GOOD WILL CLAIM BASED ON THE REPORT FROM MY MECHANIC BECAUSE THE DEALER'S COULD NOT GET ME AN APPOINTMENT. THEY SAID NO. THEY DEAL WITH ONLY GM DEALER'S NOT MECHANICS. SO BEING JUST MISSED THE MILEAGE WARRANTY GM IS NOT WILLING TO WORK WITH ME TO ACCEPT MY MECHANIC'S REPORT TO SHOW THEY SHOULD HAVE EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO THE 3.5 ENGINE'S TOO. DUE TO THE INABILITY AND NON-WILLING TO WORK WITH THEIR GMAC CUSTOMER'S I AM LOOKING TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH GENERAL MOTORS AS THEY COULD NOT ACCOMMODATE ME AND I HAD TO HAVE MY MECHANIC DIAGNOSE AND PAY FOR THIS REPAIR OUT OF POCKET BECAUSE THEY WOULD NOT DO A GOOD WILL CLAIM WITH MY MECHANIC BECAUSE THE DEALER'S COULD NOT GET ME IN TO GET A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. I HAVE DOCUMENTS TO SHOW THIS ISSUE WITH THE GM DEALER AND THEY REUSED TO ACCOMMODATE ME WITH THE ISSUE THAT THEIR PARTS WERE INEFFECTIVE AND THEY DID NOT ABIDE THEIR WARRANTY BY A FEW MILES

THE DRIVERS SEAT WELDS BROKE... THE SEAT MOVES ON THE TRACK... VERY UNSAFE IF A CRASH HAPPENS! *TR

MY POWER STEERING SIGNAL COMES ON ACROSS THE RADIO DASH AND THEN THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP, SO THEN I HAVE TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART IT. *TR

WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED MY 2007 PONTIAC G6 I HAD TO HAVE THE STEERING SHAFT REPLACED, NOW JUST AFTER 6 MONTHS MY POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON AND MADE IT DIFFICULT FOR ME TO TURN. WHEN I STOP AT THE RED LIGHT WHILE WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO CHANGE MY STEERING WHEEL MOVES FROM LEFT TO RIGHT ON ITS ON AND ONCE I PRESS THE GAS TO MOVE FORWARD IT GETS DIFFICULT. I'M HAVING SUCH A HARD TIME TRYING TO DRIVE, I REALLY HATE TO DRIVE JUST KNOWING THE PROBLEM I HAVE AND AT ANY MOMENT THE STEERING WHEEL WILL EVENTUALLY GIVE OUT.
