Pontiac G6 Electrical System Safety Report | Aug 21, 2006
Reported on Aug 21, 2006
| I HAVE A 2006 PONTIAC G6 THAT I AM LEASING SINCE 11/1/2005 AND SINCE AUGUST 2006 I HAVE BEEN HAVING NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THE BATTERY AND ENGINE ON AND OFF. THEN FINALLY ON AUGUST 21, 2006 I WENT TO GO START IT AND IT WAS TOTALLY DEAD. IT WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALER AND THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY WHICH STARTED LEAKING BATTERY ACID INTO THE ENGINE. ABOUT A MONTH LATER IN MID SEPTEMBER 2006, I WAS RUNNING ERRANDS AND WENT TO START MY CAR TO GO HOME AND IT WAS DEAD. I WAS AT A STORE AND HAD TO GET IT TOWED AGAIN TO A NEAREST DEALER. THERE THEY FOUND IT WAS A WIRING HARNESS CHAFE AROUND THE STARTER MOTOR AND ALSO CONCERNING THE AIR CONDITIONING LINES AND THAT CAUSED A FEW FUSES TO BLOW. AS OF TODAY NOVEMBER 28, 2006 I AM STILL HAVING ISSUES WITH STARTING THE CAR AND THE DEALER CANT FIND WHATS WRONG. THE CAR JUST TURNED ONE YEAR AND SHOULDN'T HAVE THESE ISSUES. I HAD TO GO OUT AND BUY A PORTABLE JUMP STARTER BECASUE THIS CAR IS SO UNPREDICTABLE. IT HAS BEEN BACK AND FORTH TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES IN 2 MONTHS AND I AM TIRED OF IT. *NM | |
