2008 PONTIAC G6 Complaints

BOTH OF MY HEAD LIGHTS HAVE GONE OUT. MY FIRST HEADLIGHT WENT OUT AND THE DEALER STATED THAT MY WIRES HAD CORRODED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NOW TWO MONTHS LATER MY OTHER HEADLIGHT IS OUT AND I BELIEVE IT IS THE SAME ISSUE. ALSO I HAVE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE WITH BOTH CRUISE CONTROL AND MY TURN SIGNALS AS BOTH HAVE NOT BEEN REACTING TO THE COMMAND. I BELIEVE THAT IT IS RELATED TO THE MAY 14, 2014 RECALL REGARDING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL. I SPENT OVER $500 TO REPLACE THE FIRST HEADLIGHT. THE OTHER ITEMS HAVE NOT BEEN REPLACED YET, BUT I KNOW THEY WILL NEED TO BE AND THE COST WILL BE EXORBITANT. *TR

FOLLOWING MY SON TO SCHOOL NOTICED BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ON WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN HE CAME TO A STOP THE BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OFF. ANOTHER INCIDENT DRIVING ON I-69 WITH CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED TRAVELING 70 MPH PASSING A TRUCK CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGED. CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT ENGAGE AGAIN FOR ABOUT 50 MILES. ANOTHER INCIDENT OF DRIVING WITH BRAKE LIGHTS ON AND STOPPING WITHOUT LIGHTS BEING ILLUMINATED, CAR NEXT TO US LET US KNOW. *TR

THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY (APPROXIMATELY 65-70 MPH) WHICH MADE IT EXTREMELY HARD TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. THIS PROBLEM PERSISTED THE NEXT TIME I TURNED THE VEHICLE BACK ON. *TR

IT APPEARS THERE ARE FOUR (4) RECALLS ON THIS MODEL/MAKE/YEAR - WE HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A SINGLE RECALL NOTIFICATION. NHTSA CAMPAIGN # 14V252000, #14V224000, 14V153000, 12V460000. I WOULD APPRECIATED FURTHER INFORMATION IN CORRECTING IDENTIFIED RECALLS. *TR

I WAS BRAKING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY POWER STEERING FAILED. LUCKILY NO CRASH OCCURRED. TRIED CONTACTING GM AND THEY SAID BECAUSE MY VIN WAS NOT ON THE RECALL NOTICE THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. GM NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THIS MATTER AND SEE IF ANYONE ELSE FROM THIS FACTORY HAS DEALT WITH SIMILAR ISSUES AND ISSUE A RECALL FOR MORE VEHICLES. *TR

FAULTY WIRING IN THE PONTIAC G6 HEADLIGHTS CAUSES THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT SOCKET TO KEEP MELTING CAUSING AN INOPERATIVE BULB. THIS COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE A FIRE SINCE IT IS NOT TRIPPING THE FUSE. *TR

POWER STEER KEEPS LOCKING UP WHEN DRIVING AND AIR BAG SERVICE LIGHT STAYS ON. *JS

VEHICLE HEADLAMPS FAIL REGULARLY EVERY (1-2 MONTHS). IT APPEARS THERE IS A POWER FLUCTUATION JUST BEFORE THE LIGHTS FAIL. *JS

THE SERVICE AIRBAG SOON LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF WHEN U STARTS THE CAR AND IT STAYS ON WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING. THE BRAKE LIGHT STAYS ON DURING DRIVING AND WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK. *JS

IN 2013 THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT WENT OUT. WE REPLACED THE LIGHT. NOTICE A COUPLE WEEKS LATER LIGHT OUT AGAIN. BROUGHT TO MECHANIC AND FOUND WIRES TO BE BURNT/MELTED. HAD TO HAVE THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT ASSMEBLY ASSEMBLY REPLACED. HAS BEEN QUITE SOME TIME AND WE HAVE RECENTLY REPLACED THE LIGHT 2 TIMES IN THE LAST 2-3 MONTHS. WIRES ARE SOMEWHAT DARK BURNT AT THE CONNECTION AS BEFORE. I BELIEVE THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES AND IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. *JS
