2010 PONTIAC G6 Complaints

MY HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY KEEPS MELTING AND THEN THE HEADLIGHTS (LOW & HIGH BEAM) DO NOT COME ON. I REPLACED THE HEADLIGHTS ABOUT 6X UNTIL I CALLED THE GM DEALERSHIP AND THEY EXPLAINED THIS IS DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL FROM GM FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE. I DID FILE A COMPLAINT WITH GM BUT THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY WILL DO AND I NEED TO PAY TO HAVE IT REPAIRED MYSELF. THE LIGHTS GO OUT COMPLETELY WHEN DRIVING AND THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT. I DON'T WANT TO HURT MYSELF OR ANYONE DUE TO HAVING NO HEADLIGHTS. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON GOOGLE FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE YET GM WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL. PLEASE HELP. I AM ON A BUDGET AND SIMPLY CANT AFFORD TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED WHEN IT SHOULD BE GM'S RESPONSIBILITY.

WHILE DRIVING, UNEXPECTEDLY, AN ERROR WILL APPEAR STATING THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE POWER STEERING. AT THIS TIME, THE POWER STEERING STOPS WORKING WHICH MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. AT THE SAME TIME, A "SERVICE ESC" CODE APPEARS ALSO AND IT AUTOMATICALLY TURNS OFF THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT HIGHER RATES OF SPEEDS WHICH POSES A CRITICAL SAFETY ISSUE. THERE IS NO CURRENT RECALL INFORMATION AT THIS TIME FOR THIS VEHICLE. SOME INSTANCES HAVE INCLUDED THE BRAKE LIGHTS NOT WORKING PROPERLY OR THE TAIL LIGHTS NOT ILLUMINATING WHILE THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TURNED ON. THIS IS ALSO A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. THE VEHICLE IS PAID OFF AND EXPENSES HAVE BEEN INCURRED BY THE OWNER TO FIX THIS PROBLEM, BUT THE ISSUE IS RECURRING. THE REPAIR CENTER CANNOT SEEM TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I AM SUBMITTING THIS COMPLAINT DUE TO THE LARGE SAFETY CONCERNS THAT THESE ISSUES POSE. I DO NOT BELIEVE THE OWNER SHOULD CONTINUE TO ACCRUE COSTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM WHEN THE PROBLEM ULTIMATELY IS NOT MITIGATED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

POWER STEERING RECALL!!! I WILL BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND MY POWER STEERING WILL SHUT OFF! I CAN NOT STEER THE VEHICLE, THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES AND MY CAR MAKES A HORRIBLE NOISE. I ALSO RECEIVE A WARNING SIGNAL ON MY DASHBOARD TELLING ME MY POWER STEERING NEEDS SERVICED AS WELL AS SERVICE ESC! I HAVE FRIENDS WITH OLDER MODELS AND THEIR CARS WERE RECALLED HOWEVER STARTING WITH MY VEHICLE YEAR (2010) AND UP THEY DO NOT HAVE A RECALL IN PLACE! THIS HAPPENS DAILY! SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT! WHAT IF I WENT AROUND A CURVE AND MY POWER STEERING SHUT OFF? GM REFUSES TO FIX IT FOR FREE AS NO "RECALL" WAS PUT INTO PLACE FOR THIS PART (JUST 2010 THO!!!) PLEASE PUT A RECALL OUT FOR THIS PART!

THE CAR JERKED INTO THE ADJACENT LANE ALMOST HITTING A CAR WHO BRAKE TO AVOID ME. I PARKED THE CAR ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TURNED IT OFF. I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND THE POWER STEERING SEEMED TO BE FINE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUES AND NOW I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR BECAUSE OF SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

2 YEARS AGO,I HAD TO REPLACE THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT LIGHT HARNESS. I NOW HAVE TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT LIGHT HARNESS.THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING.I REPLACED THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT ONLY FOR IT TO NOT WORK 2 DAYS LATER.THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING.

I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE DOWN A MOUNTAIN WHEN THE POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON AND ITS ALSO SAYING SERVICE ENC AND ALSO THE TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON, THE STEERING WAS REAL HARD FOR ME TO CONTROL GOING AROUND THE CURVES, AS SOON AS I GOT DOWN I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE, TURNED OFF MY ENGINE, TURNED IT BACK ON AGAIN AND THE LIGHTS WHERE OFF, AS SOON AS I STARTED DRIVING IT SEEMED LIKE MY STEERING ON MY LEFT HAND SIDE WOULD START TO GET ROUGH AND THEN THE LIGHTS WOULD POP BACK ON AND I WOULD HAVE TROUBLE STEERING, I LIVE ON SOME PRETTY WINDING ROADS AND A COUPLE OF THE TURNS I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA END UP ON THE SIDE, BUT I JUST COULD NOT KEEP STOPPING AND STARTING IT UP ALL THE TIME CAUSE IT WAS DARK AND NOT TO MUCH PLACES TO PULL OVER. *TR

WHEN I START THE CAR, I GET A POWER STEERING FAILURE AND CANNOT MOVE THE SHEERING WHEEL. I HAVE TO SHUT IT OFF TO GET IT WORKING AND HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 8 TIMES. TODAY THE CAR WAS ON AND WAS GOING TO PARK MY CAR, MOVING SLOWLY AND THE POWER STEERING CUT OFF. I HAD TO RESTART MY VEHICLE TO GET THE POWER STEERING TO WORK AGAIN. THE SIGNAL FOR A POWER STEERING POWER COMES UP ON THE DASH BOARD. WHY WAS THERE A RECALL OF THIS UNTIL 2009. WHEN MANY 2010 G6 ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM SCARED IF THIS HAPPENS AT A HIGH SPEED.
