2009 PONTIAC G6 Complaints

WE LOST POWER STEERING ON MY CAR . WE HAVE REPLACED THE ELECTRIC STEERING MOTOR AND THE TORQUE SENSOR . STILL NO LUCK STILL AT THE SHOP AND THEIR NOT SURE WHAT ELSE TO DO .WE ALSO CONTACTED GM AND THEY GAVE US NO HELP JUST THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO FOR US.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 PONTIAC G6. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE POWER STEERING FAILED AND THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS MADE AWARE OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14E044000 (STEERING); HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,600.

NOTICED A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE, MOST NOTABLY IN THE TRUNK. ONLINE SEARCHES HAVE NOTED THAT IT IS LIKELY A CRACKED ELBOW ON THE FUEL PUMP MODULE THAT FEEDS THE FUEL LINES. ODOR HAS STEADILY INCREASED OVER THE PAST MONTH.

I'VE BEEN REPLACING PARTS TO TRY TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF WHY THE BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON, THE CRUISE CONTROL KICKS OFF, THE TRACTION CONTROL STAYS ON. ALL THESE PROBLEMS ARE ALL AT THE SAME TIME.I GET IT FIXED AND THEN 3 WEEKS LATER ITS THE SAME ALL OVER AGAIN BUT IT KEEPS GETTING WORSE. ALOT OF PEOPLE I KNOW WITH THIS CAR KEEP SPENDING MONEY AND IT NEVER GETS FIXED THE RIGHT WAY. WE ALL NEED A SOLUTION.

LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS GO OUT WHEN DRIVING SOMETIMES THE LEFT AND SOMETIMES THE RIGHT. WHEN I START THE CAR HEADLIGHTS WONT COME ON I HAVE TO TAP ON THE HEADLIGHT LENS TO GET THEM TO COME ON, HAVE REPLACED BULBS AND STILL HAPPENS. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. I HAVE TALKED WITH OTHER G6 OWNERS THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. WHEN DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND THE LIGHTS GO OUT IT IS VERY DANGEROUS.

LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS WITH MESSAGE "SERVICE POWER STEERING SOON" ALSO "DOOR AJAR" WARNING LIGHT WITH ALL DOORS SECURELY CLOSED. VEHICLE HAS MAINTENANCE FREE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THE DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SYSTEM NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

I WAS DRIVING AND MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP ON ME WHILE I WAS ON A HIGHWAY SOMETHING POPPED UP ON MY RADIO SAYING POWER STEERING SERVICE ESC I COULDN'T TURN ALMOST HAD ACCIDENT

POWER STEERING GOES OUT RECENTLY WHILE DRIVING. ONCE I TURN OFF THE CAR THE ELECTRIC STEERING ASSIST RESETS AND THE POWER STEERING IS FINE FOR AWHILE WHILE DRIVING. THEN IT GOES OUT AGAIN.... AND IT OCCURS A MAJORITY OF THE TIME WHILE TURNING. GM SAYS THE RECALL IS VIN NUMBER SPECIFIC. I HAVE THE RIGHT YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL. BUT, MY VIN NUMBER DOES NOT BRING UP A RECALL FOR THE ISSUE. I AM NOT UNDERSTANDING. IT IS THE SAME AND A MOST DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT OTHER 2009 PONTIAC G6'S HAVE. WHAT IF MY SON, WHO IS LEARNING TO DRIVE WITH HIS PERMIT, WAS BEHIND THE WHEEL AT THE TIME? I THINK GM NEEDS TO LOOK INTO ADDING A FEW MORE VIN NUMBERS TO THEIR RECALL LIST. I BELIEVE THAT READING OTHERS POSTS PRIOR TO MINE SHOWS THIS ALSO... ESPECIALLY NEEDS TO HAPPEN BEFORE SOMETHING SERIOUS HAPPENS.

I HAVE A GAS ODOR COMING FROM MY CAR AND WAS INFORMED BY MY MECHANIC THAT THERE IS A GAS LEAK COMING FROM THE TOP OF THE GAS TANK . I COULD SEE WHEN IT WAS ON THE LIFT SIGNS OF LEAKAGE TO THE BOTOM OF THE TANK. WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR IN THE MORNING IT CRANKS SLIGHTLY LONGER BUT IF I JUST TURN THE KEY ON AND WAIT A FEW SECONDS IT SEEMS TO BUILD UP FUEL PRESSURE AND CRANKS RIGHT UP.
