2005 PONTIAC G6 Complaints

MY PONTIAC HAS HAD A LEAK FOR 6 YRS BASICALLY SINCE I HAD IT AND BEFORE THAT. I DIDN'T THINK NOTHING OF THIS BUT AFTER A WHILE OF THE SUNROOF LEAK IT CAUSES CORROSION ON THE ELECTRICAL TERMINALS IN THE WIRE HARNESS INSIDE THE DASH ON DRIVER DOOR SIDE. THIS CORROSION CAUSE YOUR CAR TO THROW PCM/TAC CODES : P0601,P0606,O0107. CAUSES CAR TO COMPLETE STALL OUT AND GO INTO REDUCED ENGINE POWER MODE. THIS CAN BE EXTREMELY UNSAFE. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THERE IS A FEW HUNDRED PEOPLE WHO POSTED ON SITES TRYING TO FIX THE SAME ISSUE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T KNOW ABOUT THIS NHTSA TO REPORT RECALLS.

MAKING LOUD NOSIES WHEN STEERING. FRONT END VERY WOBBLILY FEELING AS THOUGHT THE FRONT PART OF THE CAR FEEL LIKE ITS GOING TO DETACH FROM THE CAR. WHEN THE CAR HIT ABOUT 50 MPH IT WOULD SHAKE REAL BAD. VERY UNCOMFORTABLE RIDE OVERALL

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, AND ATTEMPTING TO ROLL THE WINDOWS DOWN, THE BUTTONS FOR THE WINDOWS WERE DEPRESSED HOWEVER, THE WINDOWS FAILED TO RESPOND. SEVERAL DAYS LATER WHILE DRIVING, THE WINDOWS INDEPENDENTLY ROLLED DOWN AND ROLLED BACK UP. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED.

MY 2005 PONTIAC G6 POWER STEERING DANGEROUSLY STOPS WORKING WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, IT DOES SO AT RANDOM AND WITHOUT NOTICE. I WAS WITH MY HUSBAND, DRIVING ON I-5 AT HIGH SPEEDS, WHEN THE POWER STEERING IMMEDIATELY GOES OFF, WE ALMOST DIED IN THAT HIGHWAY AS I WAS NOT ABLE TO PROPERLY USE THE WHEEL DUE TO THE HIGH ENERGY IT REQUIRES TO TURN. AFTER THE INCIDENT I URGENTLY CALLED PONTIAC RIGHT WHEN I SAFELY PULLED OVER SOMEWHERE, AND EXPLAINED WHAT JUST HAPPENED. BUT THEY TOLD ME THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THIS, AND I COULD NOT BELIEVE IT. GM TOLD ME TO GO TO THE CLOSEST DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AT MY OWN COST. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THEY REFERRED ME TO (IN ALBANY, OR) BUT THEY TOLD ME THEY WERE NOT A PONTIAC DEALERSHIP AND THEY MADE ME WAIT ON THE PHONE ONLY TO HANG UP ON ME AFTER 15 MINUTES. TO GIVE MORE DETAIL ON HOW THIS ISSUE HAPPENS, WHILE I DRIVE THE CAR AT SOME POINT THE POWER GOES OFF, THE SIGNAL TURNS ON AND I HEAR 3 SOUNDS SIMILAR TO THE ONES THE CAR DOES WHEN A SEAT BELT IS NOT PROPERLY PLUGGED IN. IT DOES THIS AT RANDOM, AND IN THE MOST DANGEROUS MOMENTS, SUCH AS WHILE NEEDING TO TURN, OR WHILE DRIVING FAST ON A HIGHWAY. STILL TO THIS DAY I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET MY CAR FIXED, OR EVEN LOOKED AT BY A GM DEALERSHIP SINCE I CANNOT DRIVE THE CAR AT ALL WITHOUT RISKING MY LIFE. I JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT NHTSA AND I STRONGLY URGE YOU TO PUT AN IMMEDIATE RECALL ON THIS LIFE THREATENING TRANSPORTATION VEHICLE. I AM CONSIDERING PRESSING CHARGES IF MY LAWYER DEEMS IT TO BE THE BEST NEXT STEP FOR MY CASE. BUT PLEASE, IN ORDER TO PROTECT AMERICANS THAT OWN MY SAME CAR NEED TO BE ALERTED IMMEDIATELY, THEIR CARS NEED TO BE RECALLED AND PROPERLY FIXED BY THE AUTOMAKER. PLEASE TAKE THIS INTO SERIOUS CONSIDERATION AS LIVES WILL BE LOST IF NO ONE DOES ANYTHING. I WOULD BE HAPPY TO PROVIDE YOU WITH ALL DETAILS YOU NEED. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR WORK. -[XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CC *TR

ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON NOW MY TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTING HARD WHEN PUTTING IT INTO DRIVE REVERSE ENGINE LIGHT DOES NOT GO OFF MY WINDOWS STOPPED WORKING ONLY PASSENGER WINDOW WORKS THE CAR IS STATIONARY WHEN PUTTING IT IN GEAR. *TR

I BOUGHT IT IN JANUARY AND ITS MAY , I'M HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE ENGINE. SOMETIMES ITS DON'T WANT TO CRANK! *TR

MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKS AT INITIAL START FROM TIME TO TIME. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE WHEEL BACK TURNING IS TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON.

POWER STEERING LOSS OF FUNCTION CAUSE OF FAILURE IS STEERING TORQUE SENSOR AND GM REFUSED TO REPAIR EVEN THOUGH ITS IN THEIR RECALL LIST

EVER SINCE I BOUGHT MY CAR FROM A SMALL PRIVATE OWNED DEALERSHIP IT'S HAD THE POWER STEERING LIGHT ON. IT LOCKS UP FROM TIME TO TIME WHEN I TURN MY CAR ON AND SOMETIMES WHILE IM DRIVING. TO GET IT TO RELEASE I HAVE TO TURN MY CAR OFF THEN BACK ON TO GET IT TO WORK. IT USUALLY ONLY HAPPENS WHEN IM STATIONARY BUT IVE HAD IT HAPPEN WHILE TRYING TO MAKE A TURN IN THE CITY.
