2007 Pontiac G6 complaints

BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON WHILE ACCELERATING & GO OFF WHEN BRAKING.

SMELT GASOLINE AROUND BACK OF CAR. HAPPENED ANYTIME...PARKED OR RUNNING. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS LEAKING ON TOP OF GAS TANK. SAID IT WOULD BE AROUND $800 TO FIX IT CAUSE THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE TANK. MY CAR NOT UNDER THE RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE STALLED. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 31,437.

LEFT PASSENGER HEADLIGHT CONSTANTLY GOES OUT. I HAVE REPLACED BULB SEVERAL TIMES BUT WHEN I TOOK TO THE SHOP THE PLUG WAS MELTED. I HAD TO BUY A REPLACEMENT HEADLIGHT ENSEMBLE. SEVERAL CARS THIS MODEL IS DRIVING AROUND WITH ONE HEADLIGHT ON DIM AND TWO ON BRIGHT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WAS LOOSE UPON TURNING IN EITHER DIRECTION, AND AN ABNORMAL NOISE WAS HEARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED OR DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO INSPECTED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 15V064000 (STEERING) AND 14E044000 (STEERING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM GM STATING THE BODY CONTROL MODULE MAY NOT WORK PROPERLY AND CAUSE THE BRAKE LIGHTS TO NOT FUNCTION CORRECTLY. THE LIGHTS CAN EITHER STAY ON OR NOT COME ON WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED THE LETTER SAYS THEY WILL EXTEND WARRANTY COVERAGE BUT NOT REPAIR THE CAR UNLESS IT ACTUALLY FAILS. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND NOT ACCEPTABLE. GM SHOULD BE MADE TO CORRECT THE BODY CONTROL MODULE AND RECALL THE VEHICLES. I CANNOT SEE THE IF THE BRAKE LIGHTS ARE FUNCTIONING FROM THE DRIVERS SEAT.

PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSING SYSTEM. AIR BAG MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A RECALL FOR CERTAIN 2007 PONTIAC G6 VINS BUT MINE IS NOT COVERED. SHOULD THE RECALL COVER MORE VINS IF I'M HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AS OTHER SAME YEAR MODEL G6'S?

MY 2007 PONTIAC G6 WILL AT RANDOM TIMES LOSE THE POWER STEERING IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO GET PULLED OFF OF THE ROAD WITHOUT POWER STEERING. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON 2007 G6'S BUT I WAS TOLD BY PONTIAC THAT MY CAR IS NOT ONE OF THE CARS RECALLED. I EXPLAINED THAT MY CAR IS DOING EXACTLY WHAT THE RECALL STATES HAPPENS BUT THEY STILL SAID MY CAR IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. IT'A RISKY TO DRIVE THE CAR WHEN IT RANDOMLY DOES THIS. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON HIGHWAYS GOING 70 MPH AS WELL AS ON CITY STREETS. MY ONLY OPTION ACCORDING TO PONTIAC IS TO PAY TO FIX IT MYSELF.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V064000 (STEERING). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 187,000.

THE POWER STEERING WILL TURN OFF RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING. RESTARTING THE CAR REACTIVATED THE POWER STEERING, THEN RANDOMLY WILL SHUT OFF AGAIN WHILE DRIVING. HAPPENS AT ANY SPEED AND WHETHER TURNING OR GOING STRAIGHT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARDS, THE POWER STEERING SEIZED. LATER, THE VEHICLE STARTED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC OR DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

WE HAVE A 2007 PONTIAC G6, THE BASE 4 DOOR MODEL. THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING SUDDENLY EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V064000 THE BELT IS STILL THERE AND AFTER A COUPLE OF HOURS THE SENSOR STARTED WORKING AGAIN, BUT WHO KNOWS WHEN IT SWILL CUT OUT AGAIN. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS FOR 2007 PONTIAC G6 BUT OUR PARTICULAR VIN IS NOT LISTED. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE BUT FOR SOME REASON NHTSA HAS NOT EXPANDED THIS RECALL TO ALL 2007 G6 AND THE MANUFACTURER CAN CARE LESS. MY QUESTION IS AT WHAT POINT DOES NHTSA FORCE A MANUFACTURER TO RECALL SOMETHING THIS OBVIOUS? DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE AND THEIR FAMILY BE ON 20/20 BEFORE NHTSA MOVES THEIR BUREAUCRATIC ASSES? FROM ALL THE COMPLAINTS ITS OBVIOUS ALL 2007 G6 HAVE THIS POTENTIAL ISSUE. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, SOMEONE THERE PLEASE CONTACT THE MANUFACTURES ON THIS ISSUE AND HAVE THEM EXPAND THIS RECALL!!!!!!

"TAKATA RECALL" I HAVE CONTACTED YOU ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS REGARDING THIS MATTER. THE AIR BAGS AND BRAKES (FRONT/REAR) ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE AB LIGHT CONTINUOUSLY BLANKING THE WORDS "NEEDS TO BE SERVICED" AND I'VE HAD THE BRAKES REPAIRED AND STILL HEAR A NOISE UPON IMPACT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. WHILE DRIVING, THE POWER STEERING FAILED. THE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR DID NOT ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND WAS DIAGNOSED, BUT NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 155,000.

POWER STEERING HAS FAILED TWICE IN 24 MONTHS WHILE BEING DRIVEN. FIRST ON 02/24/2015 AND AGAIN ON 02/14/2017. THEY REPLACED A SENSOR KIT IN 2015 AT A COST OF $586 AND NOW THE WHOLE STEERING COLUMN HAS FAILED,

CAR SUFFERED A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER OR TURN THE CAR. CAR HAS EPS. THE POWER STEERING FUNCTIONALITY HAS NOT RETURNED.

POWER STEERING NOT WORKING, BRAKES SOMETIMES GOES TOO LOW TO THE FLOOR & PEDEL SENSOR HAS GONE OFF MAKING CAR ACCELERATE AT TIMES.

PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SEAT SENSOR FAILURE. COMMON PROBLEM, THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS REPORTED ONLINE. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT GM REFUSES TO FIX. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL, LIVES ARE AT RISK BECAUSE OF THIS EQUIPMENT FAILURE. "SERVICE AIRBAG" DISPLAYS ON RADIO AND DASH LIGHTS AFTER PASSENGER EXITS VEHICLE AND SOME TIMES WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.

INCREASINGLY OVER THE LAST MONTH THERE HAS BEEN A STRONG SMELL OF GAS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE CAR. IT'S STRONGER WHEN STATIONARY. ONE MORNING THE SMELL HAD ENTERED OUR HOME FROM THE GARAGE WHICH IS NEXT TO MY DAUGHTERS ROOM. THE CAR HESITATES OR MAY NOT TURN OVER AT ALL WHEN TURNING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AS OTHER VEHICLES OF THIS TYPE BUT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. IT WAS ALSO PURCHASED AND IS STILL REGISTERED IN FLORIDA. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD CREATED BY GM SPECIFICATIONS.

THE PASSENGER SIDE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT CONTINUOUSLY GOES OUT DUE TO THE WIRING SHORTING OUT. I DISCOVERED THE BURN AFTER REPLACING THE PASSENGER LOWBEAM BULB SEVERAL TIMES. THE HEADLIGHT SOCKET HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE. THE WIRING HAS BEEN REPLACED. THE LIGHT WILL WORK FOR ONE DAY AND GO RIGHT BACK OUT DUE TO SOMETHING BURNING OUT THE WIRE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND HAS BECOME A COMMON PROBLEM AMONGST THE G6 LINE. A RECALL AND FIX SHOULD BE PROVIDED.

THE "SERVICE AIRBAG" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON YESTERDAY FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THERE HAVE BEEN NO LIQUID SPILLS ON EITHER DRIVER OR PASSENGER SEATS, EVER. "DEEP DIVE" RESEARCHING THIS TOPIC ONLINE SUGGESTS GM DID A FAILURE ANALYSIS AND KNOWS THE MYSTERIOUS WARNING LIGHT PROBLEM AND IT'S ROOT CAUSE. GM RECALLED JUST 359 INDIVIDUAL CARS OF MY TYPE AND VINTAGE. IRONICALLY, THE SAME RECALL COVERS MANY OTHER GM VEHICLE TYPES OF MULTIPLE YEAR MODELS. THERE ARE APPARENTLY AS MANY COMPLAINTS FROM OWNERS OUTSIDE THOSE OTHERWISE APPROVED FOR RECALL REPAIR. GM APPEARS TO BE FOLLOWING THE FIAT/CHRYSLER PLAYBOOK RELATED TO THE JEEP ZJ FUEL TANK RECALL IN THE LATER CASE. READING THE ACCIDENT EVENTS REPORTED AND INJURY RELATED TO WHAT APPEARS TO BE UNWARRANTED AND/OR ILLEGITIMATE G6 AIRBAG SERVICE AIRBAG / NON-DEPLOYMENT EVENTS, IT SOUND LIKE THERE MAY BE MORE THAN 359 EACH 2007 PONTIAC G6'S WITH SIMILAR BAD AIR BAG SENSORS THAT GM SHOULD OTHERWISE WANT TO AND UNILATERALLY WITH "ARMS WIDE OPEN" INVITE CUSTOMERS TO HAVE THEM MAKE THE SAFETY REPAIR UNDER THE SAME RECALL, OR JUST AS A CUSTOMER "GOOD WILL" GESTURE. OTHERS WHO HAVE CONTACTED GM CLAIM THE CUSTOMER NO SERVICE FEEDBACK ATTAINED IS REGRET THAT THERE IS NOTHING GM CUSTOMER CARE CAN DO, SINCE THEIR VINS ARE OUTSIDE THE "359". REPAIR ESTIMATES I'VE READ ABOUT ARE UPWARDS OF $850 - $900. MEANWHILE, THERE ARE WEBSITES THAT WILL TAKE AND RESET THE AIRBAG SENSING MODULE FOR $45. CUSTOMERS APPARENTLY FOUND THE $45 RESET FIXES THE ISSUE SATISF

AS I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY POWER STEERING LOCKS UP AND I AM HARDLY ABLE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL!! DANGEROUS CALLED GM SAID MY CAR ISN'T IN THE RECALL AS SOME OF THE OTHERS! WELL WHEN I DIE OR SOME ONE ELSE DOES GM WILL SE MY FACE IN COURT! $900 TO FIX THE PROBLEM DON'T HAVE IT! WE OWN A AUTO REPAIR SHOP CANT FIX IT NEED TO HAVE IT PROGRAMMED! THIS HAS STARTED EARLIER BUT THEN WENT AWAY SO I CANCELED MY APPOINTMENT AT DEALER NOW THE WONT FIX IT . WELL SINCE I OWN A AUTO SHOP I KNOW BRINGING MY CAR IN WHEN THE PROBLEM ISN'T PRESENT DOES NO GOOD. HOW YOU GOING TO FIND A PROBLEM WHEN IT IS INTERMITTENT. I SOMETIMES NEED TO PULL OVER SHUT MY CAR OFF AND RESTART IT AND IT USUALLY TAKES CARE OF IT FOR A FEW DAYS. HAPPENS MORE AND MORE THE LONGER AND MORE MILES I PUT ON THE CAR! *TR

THE POWER STEERING LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON IN MY 2007 PONTIAC G6 AFTER A MINUTE OF BEING ON THE ROAD IN MOTION MAKING THE STEERING ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. IT'S HAPPENED ON BOTH THE HIGHWAY AND CITY STREETS REGARDLESS OF THE SPEED. IT CAUSED ME TO ALMOST HAVE TWO ACCIDENTS ALREADY! BUT THERE IS NO WHERE TO ADD THE STEERING FLUID. I TOOK IT TO MULTIPLE MECHANICS AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NO RESERVOIR FOR POWER STEERING FLUID IN THE CAR & THAT ITS A STEERING COLUMN ISSUE THAT'S OVER $1000 TO REPAIR. THE DEALERS SAY IT'S A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM. THEY TOLD ME TO CONTACT GM DEALER TO CHECK FOR A RECALL. I CALL VARIOUS GM DEALERS AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THAT. THIS IS REDICULOUS. IT IS NOT SAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE THIS CAR THE WAY IT IS & IT IS THEIR FAULT THAT THIS IS HAPPENING! I'VE ALWAYS PREFERRED TO BUY AMERICAN CARS BUT THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FROM THE AMERICAN COMPANIES!! I CAN NO LONGER DRIVE MY CAR BECAUSE IT'S NOT SAFE. THIS IS THE ONLY CAR I HAVE MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR ME TO GET TO WORK.

I WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY PROBABLY AROUND 50 MPH AND THE POWER STEERING QUIT WORKING. I TURNED IT OFF AND ON IT STARTED WORKING AGAIN. I WAS OUT ON THE INTERSTATE DOING 75 AND IT DID IT AGAIN. I T HAS BEEN INTERMITTENT EVER SENSE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE SWITCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 125,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

"SERVICE AIR BAG" COMES ACROSS THE DIC INDICATING IT NEEDS SERVICE DONE TO IT. TURN VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON AND THE LIGHT GOES AWAY. IF THE CAR IS TURNED ON (TRIED MANY TIMES) AND SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, THE SERVICE MESSAGE COMES ON AFTER A FEW TRIES. ALL CONNECTORS HAVE BEEN CHECKED AND LIQUIDS HAVE NOT BEEN SPILLED ON THE SEATS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TO BE TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR AN APPOINTMENT TO INSPECT AND DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 15V064000 (STEERING) AND 14E044000 (STEERING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. VERY NOTICEABLE WHEN DRIVING AND AFTER EXITING THE CAR. FUEL LEAK TRACED TO A CRACKED PLASTIC ELBOW ON TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY. HAD A DEALERSHIP INSTALL A NEW FUEL PUMP. *TR

"SERVICE AIR BAG" LIGHTS UP ON THE DASH. IT CODES AS A B0081 SYMPTOM 71 PASSENGER AIR BAG

REPLACEMENT PART (CABLE KIT # 23238001) UNDER RECALL 14152 HAS SUBSEQUENTLY FAILED AND AS A RESULT HAS NOT REMEDIED THE ORIGINAL SAFETY CONCERN WHICH STATES, "IF THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT CABLE FRACTURES WHILE THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN, THE TRANSMISSION GEAR SELECTION MAY NOT MATCH THE INDICATED GEAR AND THE VEHICLE MAY MOVE IN AN UNINTENDED OR UNEXPECTED DIRECTION, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. FURTHERMORE, WHEN THE DRIVER GOES TO STOP AND PARK THE VEHICLE, DESPITE SELECTING THE 'PARK' POSITION, THE TRANSMISSION MAY NOT BE IN 'PARK.' IF THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN THE "PARK" POSITION THERE IS A RISK THE VEHICLE WILL ROLL AWAY AS THE DRIVER AND OTHER OCCUPANTS EXIT THE VEHICLE OR ANYTIME THEREAFTER. A VEHICLE ROLLAWAY INCREASES THE RISK OF INJURY TO EXITING OCCUPANTS AND BYSTANDERS." THE ISSUE IS RELATED TO A FAILURE OF A RETAINING RING AT THE ENGINE END OF THE CABLE LINKAGE THAT IS TO SECURELY ATTACH TO A POST ON THE TRANSMISSION. VEHICLE FORTUNATELY WAS ON LEVEL GROUND AND STATIONARY AT THE TIME OF DISCOVERY. VEHICLE WOULD START NORMALLY BUT COULD NOT BE PUT IN GEAR DUE TO THE ISSUE. REQUESTED DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE UNDER THE RECALL BUT DEALERSHIP WILL NOT REPLACE SINCE IT WAS ALREADY REPLACED ONCE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT NOTICED STRONG FUMES OF FUEL INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A CRACK ON THE FUEL PUMP ABOVE THE FUEL LINES. THE MANUFACTURER INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED FROM A MANUFACTURER RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. UPDATED 02/22/2017*CT *TR

THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V153000 (STEERING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

TAKATA RECALL THE AIR BAGS FOR BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER TAKE 3 TO 4 MILES OF DRIVING BEFORE THEY COME ON. THE LIGHT SAYS THEY ARE OFF. *TR

MY DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT KEEPS GOING OUT WHEN I WENT TO CHANGE IT THE HARNESS WAS MELTED AND ALMOST CAUGHT FIRE...WE CHANGED THE HARNESS OUT AND IT STILL WILL NOT WORK I AM SICK OF GETTING PULLED OVER FOR MY LIGHT BEING OUT..I ALSO HAVE PICTURE OF THE OLD HARNESS THAT WAS ON THE CAR FROM WHERE I GOT IT FROM..

STRONG FUEL/GAS ODOR COMING FROM CAR WHEN DRIVING AND MORE SO WHEN IT IS TURNED OFF AND PARKED IN A GARAGE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD, IN THAT A FIRE COULD DEVELOP. I HAVE NOTED THAT THERE HAVE BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE. I FEEL GM SHOULD PROVIDE A FREE REPAIR. THE CAR HAS 58000 MILES. INCLUDED DOCUMENT DOES NOT INCLUDE MY 2007 PONTIAC G6 AND IT SHOULD. *TR

FUEL SMELL OVERWHELMING IN GARAGE

MY POWER STEERING PUMP HAS BROKE 3 TIMES NOW IN A YEAR. MY TRANCTION CONTROL AND ELECTRIC SYSTEMS WORK WHEN THEY WANT TO

STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE, CAN NOT PARK IN GARAGE IT IS SO STRONG

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE POWER STEERING FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 09E005000 (STEERING), BUT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 134,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILED. THE BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS ENGAGED. ON SOME OCCASIONS, THE BRAKE LIGHTS REMAINED ILLUMINATED WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT ENGAGED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V252000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, EXTERIOR LIGHTING, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL); HOWEVER, THE REPAIR DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 77,400.

THE STEERING HOSE IT TOO CLOSE TO THE EXHAUST.....IT BUST MY STEERING HOSE 2 TIMES WHICH CAUSE MY CAR TO SMOKE AND CATCH FIRE DUE TO THE FLUID LEAKING ON EXHAUST....I WAS ABLE TO GET IT OUT AND REPLACE THE HOSE AGAIN AND THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPEN AGAIN....

MY HEADLIGHT BURNED OUT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE CAR. I REPLACED IT AND IT LASTED ABOUT TWO WEEKS AND THEN BURNED OUT AGAIN. FOUND THE SOCKET MELTED AND BURNED UP REAL BAD. I REPLACED THE HEADLIGHT SOCKET ASSEMBLY AND IT WORKED FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND THEN WOULD COME ON ONLY WHEN I SLAMMED THE HOOD (SOMETIMES.) AND THEN STOPPED WORKING FOR GOOD. THE BRIGHT LIGHT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE CAR WORKED FINE UP UNTIL THEN, BUT SOON AFTER WENT OUT SO I REPLACED THAT BULB AND SOCKET ASSEMBLY WITH NO RESULT. NEITHER BRIGHT NOR DIM LIGHT WORKS ON DRIVER'S SIDE. I CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT. NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHY IT'S DOING IT, AND NONE OF THE MECHANICS I'VE BEEN TO HAVE ANY IDEA WHY THE HEADLIGHTS AREN'T FUNCTIONING PROPERLY (AT ALL.) IT'S FRUSTRATING. IT'S DANGEROUS. AND IT HAS COST ME MORE MONEY THAN LIGHTS SHOULD EVER COST A PERSON. I HAVEN'T DRIVEN THE CAR IN MONTHS BECAUSE I'M TIRED OF GETTING PULLED OVER. IT SUCKS AND I STILL AM PAYING ON THIS CAR AND CAN'T EVEN USE IT. I HATE PONTIAC. GM NEEDS TO SHUTDOWN. NEVER BEEN SATISFIED WITH A GM VEHICLE.

WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKES IN THE CAR THE BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD GO OFF. NOT NOTIFYING THE VEHICLES BEHIND ME THAT I AM STOPPING. WHEN BRAKES IS RELEASED THE BRAKE LIGHTS IN THE BACK OF THE CAR WOULD THEN COME ON.

STRONG FUEL SMELL COMING FROM REAR OF VEHICLE. THIS APPEARS TO BE RELATED TO THE PLASTIC ELBOW GM USED IN THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD. RESEARCH SHOWS THIS IS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH 2007 G5 MODELS AND OTHER GM VEHICLES AND HAVE ACTIVE RECALLS IN PLACE. THERE ARE SEVERAL NHTSA COMPLAINTS FOR THIS PROBLEM AND SAME MODEL/YEAR VEHICLE AS MINE. CONTACTED GM AND THEY REFUSE TO TAKE ANY ACTION AT THIS TIME. THE DEALER COST TO REPAIR THIS MANUFACTURER DEFECT IS APPROXIMATELY $800.00. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE THAT GM IS NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THIS ISSUE AND IS REFUSING TO TAKE ACTION. IS THIS GOING TO REMAIN OPEN UNTIL THERE IS A FATALITY CAUSED BY THIS KNOWN ISSUE?

I'VE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS (4) TO WHERE MY POWER STEERING WILL GO OUT. I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO TURN MY STEERING WHEEL PROPERLY. I'VE HAD TO GET THIS FIX MULTIPLE OF TIMES AND DECIDED TO CHECK AND SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE FOR IT. I DON'T SEE IT SO I DECIDED TO RIGHT A REVIEW ABOUT IT. I HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEONE ELSE NOT JUST ME THAT FEARS FOR THIS TO HAPPEN TO THEM. ALSO, THE DRIVER (FRONT) AND BRAKE/REVERSE LIGHTS HAS WENT OUT. I CAN'T SEEM TO GET ANYONE THAT KNOWS HOW TO FIX MY BRAKE/REVERSE LIGHTS. I'VE GOT MY DRIVER SIDE FIXED SEVERAL TIME AS WELL AND IT STILL TENDS TO GO OUT ON ME.

THERE WAS ALREADY A RECALL ON THE DYSFUNCTION OF THE BRAKE LIGHTS. I GOT IT FIXED, ACCORDING TO THE RECALL. ALL SEEMED WELL, BUT I AM NOW ABOUT A YEAR (LONGER?) AFTER THE RECALL AND IT SEEMS TO NOT HAVE WORKED. I KNOW, VERY WELL, OF SOMEONE WHO OWNS A YEAR LATER OF THE SAME CAR, HAD THE SAME RECALL, AND IT ALSO ENDED UP GOING BACK TO THE MALFUNCTIONING. I KNOW TOO WELL, A SERVICE ISN'T GUARANTEED AFTER A YEAR. WHERE DOES A RECALL, THAT DIDN'T GET FIXED PROPERLY, HAVE A TIME LIMIT ON GETTING FIXED!

I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW. IT IS A PONTIAC G 6 GT CONVERTIBLE WITH AN OPTIONAL GTP HIGH OUTPUT ENGINE AND DRIVETRAIN. THIS IS A TOP OF THE LINE VEHICLE WITH ALL OPTIONS. SINCE NEW, THE VEHICLE DOES NOT STEER WELL. IT LURCHES UNEXPECTEDLY FROM SIDE TO SIDE WHEN GOING AROUND TURNS OR JUST STRAIGHT AHEAD. IT HAS BEEN VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF AND ONLY HAS 28,000 MILES ON IT AS OF TODAY. IT IS STILL IN THE 36,000 MILE GM WARRANTY PERIOD. THERE HAS BEEN A SNAPPING/POPPING NOISE IN THE STEERING WHEEL/COLUMN SINCE NEW WHEN YOU TURN THE STEERING WHEEL FROM SIDE TO SIDE, SITTING STILL OR DRIVING. THE STEERING FEELS VERY UNSTABLE. RECENTLY THE VEHICLE STARTED CONSTANTLY PULLING TO THE RIGHT. IF I LET OFF THE STEERING WHEEL IT WILL DRIVE OFF THE ROAD. THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES BACK AND FORTH AND THE STEERING FEELS LOOSE AND BUMPY. THE ENTIRE STEERING SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE REPLACED FROM THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE WHEELS. THIS STEERING IS ELECTRIC. THE PARTS ARE VERY EXPENSIVE. THE RACK AND PINION IS ALSO MAKING NOISE AND BUMPY, NEEDS REPLACEMENT. THE WHEELS APPEAR OUT OF ALIGNMENT AND THE TIRES APPEAR TO BE WEARING ON THE OUTSIDE EDGES. THIS IS BASICALLY A BRAND NEW VEHICLE. IT HAS BEEN KEPT IN A GARAGE IN FLORIDA. NO RUST. LOOKS AND DRIVES NEW. EXCEPT FOR THE ELECTRIC STEERING SYSTEM. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. INTERNET SEARCH AND DEALER PHONE CALL CONFIRMED THAT. GM HAS SEVERAL RECALLS AND EXTENDED WARRANTIES FOR THIS, BUT MY CAR DOES NOT QUALIFY. THE STEERING SYSTEM IS M

I WAS ENTERING THE HIGHWAY ON THE ON RAMP, JUST AT THE END OF THE RAMP AND MERGING ON I HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN SHOT GO OFF AND THEN HAD SHATTERED GLASS FLYING INTO MY FACE. I WAS JUST ABOUT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY GET TO THE SHOULDER AND STOP. I INSPECTED WHAT HAD HAPPENED AND FOUND THAT MY SUNROOF SPONTANEOUSLY EXPLODED ON ME. GLASS WAS EVERYWHERE, INCLUDING ALL OVER ME. WHEN I ENTERED THE HIGHWAY THERE WERE NO CARS IN FRONT OR BEHIND ME, OR ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I WAS MERGING, THEREFORE, NO ROCKS COULD HAVE HIT IT. THE SUNROOF WAS CLOSED AT THE TIME. A COUNTY SHERIFF PULLED UP BEHIND ME SHORTLY ON THE SHOULDER. HE STATED HE HAD NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS. I BRUSHED THE GLASS OFF OF ME THE BEST I COULD AND PROCEEDED TO DRIVE SLOWLY ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY 4 WAYS ON TO THE CLOSEST DEALERSHIP, TRYING NOT TO GET A GLASS SHARD IN MY EYE. WHEN AT THE DEALERSHIP THEY STATED THEY HAD NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS. THEY ALSO INFORMED ME THAT IN THE GARBAGE THEY THROW ENGINE BLOCKS ON TOP OF SUNROOFS TO TRY AND SHATTER THEM AND THEY NEVER DO. I WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT THIS WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND INSURANCE DOESN'T PAY FOR THIS. I HAD TO PAY FOR REPLACEMENT OR BE UNABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR IN THE RAIN OR THE SNOWY WINTERS IN WISCONSIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXPERIENCING THE SAME FAILURE AS NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V252000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, EXTERIOR LIGHTING, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON AND OFF OCCASIONALLY. ALSO, THE GEAR SHIFTER WOULD NOT SWITCH OUT OF THE PARK POSITION. THE CONTACT HAD TO DETACH THE BATTERY CABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO GO INTO THE PARK POSITION. THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT DEACTIVATE ONCE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE FAILURES WERE A PART OF AN UNKNOWN RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,400.
