AFTER REPLACING THE FUSE BOX, WIRING HARNESS, AND FUSES ON MY FUSE BOX IN THE TRUNK OF MY G6 I HAVE HAD NO SATISFACTION AS TO THE PROBLEM BEING REMEDIED THAT CONTINUES TO CAUSE SITUATIONS THAT COULD BE DETRIMENTAL TO MYSELF AND MY FAMILY. I CANNOT AFFORD TO RUN RIGHT OUT AND PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE ESPECIALLY WHEN I HAVE PAID ON THIS ONE EXPECTING IT TO LAST ME A VERY LONG TIME. THIS ISSUE WITH THIS RELAY PROBLEM TO THE FUEL PUMP WHICH HAS CAUSED MY CAR TO NOW SHUT DOWN TWICE ON ME ON MAIN INTERESTATES WITH SEVERAL CARS BEHIND ME! THIS ISSUE NEEDS ADDRESS IS MY FAMILY GOING TO BE COMPENSATED SHOULD SOMETHING HAPPEN TO ME WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. WILL MY EXPENSES BE PAID. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS THAT THIS ISSUE IS NOT BEING ADDRESS BY YOURSELVES OR THROUGH PONTIAC. I WOULD LIKE THIS ISSUE HANDLED OR IF IT CANNOT BE REMEDIED I WOULD LIKE A FULL REFUND ON MY VEHICLE OF $14000 SO I MAY BE ABLE TO PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE. THIS ISSUE NEEDS ADDRESSED. THIS IS MY SECOND COMPLAINT FILING DUE TO MYSELF AND FAMILY ALMOST BEING HARMED FATALLY DUE TO THIS ONGOING PROBLEM!!!!! *TR

ON MAY 9, 2016, I WAS HEADING TO MY HOME WHEN MY CAR STALLED BRIEFLY IN THE MIDDLE OF A MAJOR ROADWAY, 220 NORTH, CUMBERLAND, MARYLAND 21502. LUCKILY MY VEHICLE RE-ENGAGED WITHIN A MINUTE IN ORDER FOR ME TO AVOID BEING HIT BY ANY TRACTOR AND TRAILER TRAFFIC THAT WAS STEADILY APPROACHING ME. NEEDLESS TO SAY I WAS PETRIFIED DURING THIS TIME THING I WAS GOING TO BE DEMOLISHED AND DIE IN MY CAR!!! THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE RELAY CONNECTION FROM THE FUSE BOX IN THE TRUNK OF THE PONTIACT G 6 TO THE FUEL PUMP WHICH HAS CAUSED MY CAR TO NOT START ON SEVERAL OCCASSIONS. WE HAVE HAD IT LOOKED AT AND FROM EVERYTHING WE HAVE SEEN AND DONE NOTHING FIXES THIS PROBLEM, NOT EVEN REPLACING THE FUSE BOX, FUEL PUMP, FUSES, ETC. YESTERDAY WAS THE FIRST TIME IT SEMI STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF A MAJOR ROADWAY ALMOST CAUSING A MAJOR ACCIDENT. THIS IS A PONTIAC ISSUE I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS OF THIS ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE ONLINE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH THROUGH A RECAL FROM THE PONTIAC MANUFACTURER. AND FROM WHAT I HAVE RESEARCHED AND FOUND THAT REPLACING THE WIRING HARNESS AND FUSE BOX IS ONLY A TEMPORARY FIX SO IF PONITAIC IS UNABLE TO FIX THIS SERIOUS PROBLEM, THEY NEED TO TRADE ALL PONTIAC G6 FOR A VEHICLE OF EQUAL VALUE!!! AT THIS POINT I AM THOROUGHLY FRUSTRATED AND PISSED OFF WITH THIS PROBLEM THAT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED ON THESE VEHICLES!!! IT IS A SHAME THAT IT WILL TAKE SOMEONE LOSING THEIR LIFE FOR THE PROBLEM TO BE HANDLED!!! I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW WITH NO PERMANENT SOLUATION, I HAVE MISSED WORK DUE TO THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE BEEN LATE ON SEVERAL OCCASSIONS DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. THE WORST THING THAT HAS HAPPENED WAS YESTERDAY ON A MAJOR ROADWAY STALLING WITH TRACTOR AND TRAILER TRAFFIC COMING UP BEHIND ME.

ON APRIL 16TH 2016 I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT. ME AND A FRIEND WERE DRIVING BACK TO HIS HOUSE THE ROAD AT NIGHT, WHEN A DEER CROSSED THE ROAD, I ATTEMPTED TO MANEUVER TO DODGE THE DEER AND ENDED UP GOING OFF THE ROAD AND LOSING CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. MY CAR HIT A FENCE LINE, AS WELL A MULTIPLE SMALL TREES. THE CAR WAS TOTALED YET MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I'VE ALREADY CONTACTED MY INSURANCE COMPANY, AND AS EVERYTHING STARTS TO SETTLE WITH THEM I'D LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE IS ANYTHING I CAN DO BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT MY AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. WE WERE BOTH BRUISED UP PRETTY BADLY, AND HAD TO GO THE THE EMERGENCY ROOM, AND MY FRIENDS WRIST WAS BROKEN IN THE CRASH.

I WAS DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC AND ALL OF A SUDDENLY ON THE DASH APPEARED POWER STEERING ESC MY STEERING WHEEL THEN LOCKED UP AND MY CAR CUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC I WAS REALLY SCARED AND FEARED FOR MY LIFE BECAUSE THERE WERE NO LIGHTS SO THAT THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC COULD SEE ME... I THINK THAT THIS ISSUE REALLY PUT ME IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION

SHIFT CABLE WILL NOT ALLOW VEHICLE TO BE PLACED IN PARK. INDICATOR DOES NOT INDICATE CORRECT GEAR. VEHICLE WILL ROLL AFTER SHIFT LEVER IS PUT IN PARK. OTHER G6S WITH 4 SPEED AUTO HAVE BEEN RECALLED, BUT MINE HAS 6 SPEED AUTO.
