2006 PONTIAC G6 Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 PONTIAC G6. WHILE REVERSING FROM A PARKING SPACE, THE VEHICLE LOST STEERING ABILITY AND THE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DETERMINED THAT THE POWER STEERING MODULE FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED.

1) STATIONARY - KEYLESS ENTRY REMOTE DOES NOT OPEN EITHER DOOR AFTER SEVERAL TIMES PRESSING THE REMOTE BUTTON. THE DOOR DOES NOT HAVE A KEY HOLE TO MANUALLY OPEN EITHER DOOR OR THE TRUNK. 2) STATONARY OR IN MOTION - LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE INOPERABLE BECAUSE BOTH WIRING CONNECTORS FOR LOW BEAM LIGHTS HAVE MELTED AND THERE ARE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE.

CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT COME ON AND BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON WITHOUT BEING USED. CAR ONLY HAD 69000 MILES

POWER STEERING GOES OUT WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY WHEN DRIVING. MOST RECENT WAS DRIVING HOME FROM NEW YORK ON FRIDAY AND IT WENT OUT. IT COMES BACK WITHOUT WARNING AS WELL. IT IS WORKING FINE NOW. BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON WHEN DRIVING AND GO OFF WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED. THIS HAPPENS 95 PERCENT OF THE TIME WITH THEM WORKING THE CORRECT WAY GETTING LESS AND LESS FREQUENT.

TAKATA INFLATORS. THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE COMES ON WHEN CAR IS STARTED. STAYS ON. ALSO THE RADIO DISPLAY HAS SERVICE AIRBAG MESSAGE ON IT ALL THE TIME WHEN DRIVING. THE MECHANIC STATES IT IS THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG THAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM.

MY TRANSMISSION IS GOING ON ME, IVE HAD SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHERE I WENT TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE WAITED ALMOST A MINUTE FOR IT TO SHIFT PRESSED THE GAS & IT WOULDN'T GO ANYWHERE THEN IT KICKED REAL HARD. TOOK IT TO A SHOP & THEY TOLD ME THAT IT'S FAILING I'M AFRAID I'M GOING TO TAKE A CHANCE & GET INTO AN ACCIDENT OR HAVE MY CAR ROLLAWAY WHEN IT'S PARKED. ANOTHER ISSUE I HAVE IS WITH MY STEERING, TOOK IT TO THE SAME SHOP FOR A LEFT CONTROL ARM & THEY TOLD ME THE REASON FOR THE CRACKING WHEN I TURN THE WHEEL IS THAT I NEED A U JOINT . AGAIN I'M AFRAID I'M GOING TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT WITH THESE ISSUES I HAVE WITH THIS CAR.
