2008 PONTIAC G6 Complaints

-BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON ALL THE TIME UNTIL I PRESS DOWN ON THE BRAKE. THEN BRAKE LIGHTS COME BACK ON AFTER A FEW SECONDS. -CRUISE CONTROL WORKS WHEN THE BRAKE LIGHTS ARE OFF, BUT ONLY FOR A FEW SECONDS BECAUSE OF THE FIRST ISSUE -WHEN USING CRUISE CONTROL AND APPLYING THE BRAKES THE CAR DOES NOT SLOW DOWN UNTIL I TURN OFF CRUISE CONTROL. *TR

AFTER STARTING MY VEHICLE THE SERVICE TIRE MONITOR WARNING LIGHT TURNED ON THEN SHORTLY AFTER THIS, MY SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT ALSO TURNED ON. IT TURNS OFF AFTER THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED HOWEVER IT DOES THIS EVERY TIME I START MY CAR.

AFTER STARTING MY VEHICLE THE SERVICE TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR WARNING LIGHT TURNED ON AND HAS NOT TURNED OFF. SHORTLY AFTER THIS, MY SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT ALSO TURNED ON. IT TURNS OFF AFTER THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED HOWEVER IT DOES THIS ABOUT EVERY 5 TIMES I START MY CAR. *TR

I BEGAN TO NOTICE STRONG FUEL SMELL COMING FROM VEHICLE WHICH LEAD ME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. I NOTICED A CRACK IN THE FUEL LINE AS STATED IN RECALL 09V-419. UNFORTUNATELY THE G6 IS NOT COVERED IN THIS RECALL EVEN THOUGH THE G5 IS. BECAUSE OF THE FUEL LEAK, GAS MILEAGE IS SUFFERING GREATLY. G6 SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED RECALL. *TR

AS I WAS PULLING AWAY FROM A STOP LIGHT IN A BUSY AREA THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED ALL OF THE SUDDEN ON THEIR OWN WITHOUT IMPACT. I WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY PULL OVER INTO THE MICHAEL'S STORE NEAR BY. THE AIR BAGS HIT MY HEAD AND ARM. THE ENTIRE SIDE AIR BAG SYSTEM, INCLUDING THE SEAT MECHANISM EXPLODED FROM THE DRIVER'S SEAT TO THE BACK PASSENGER. *TR

BRAKE LIGHTS CAME ON WHEN BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT ENGAGED. AS SOON HAS BRAKE PEDAL WAS ENGAGED BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OFF AND THEN BACK ON AGAIN. WHEN BRAKE PEDAL WAS DIS-ENGAGED BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OFF AND AFTER ABOUT 5 SECONDS CAME BACK ON AGAIN. *TR

STRONG GASOLINE SMELL COMING FROM CAR. PARKED IT IN A GARAGE AND THE SMELL WAS OVERWHELMING, PROMPTING ME TO SEE IF THERE WAS A LEAK. DISCOVERED THERE WAS IN FACT A FUEL LEAK. FOUND THAT THERE WAS A MASSIVE RECALL INVOLVING PONTIAC G5 MODELS AND THE FUEL PUMP CRACKING IN STATES WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES, HOWEVER, THE G6 MODEL IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. *TR
