Pontiac G6 Electrical System Safety Report | Feb 08, 2013
Reported on Feb 08, 2013
| AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE, I NOTICED THAT THE CRUISE CONTROL WORKED INTERMITTENTLY. I BROUGHT THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF THE SALES STAFF AND WAS TOLD THAT, DUE TO THE PRICE I WAS PAYING, THERE WAS NO ROOM LEFT TO REPAIR SOMETHING NOT SAFETY RELATED . THIS WAS AGREEABLE TO ME, SO I LEFT IT AT THAT. I DROVE THE CAR FOR SEVERAL MONTHS WITH NO OTHER APPARENT ISSUES. SOME TIME LATER I FOLLOWED MY WIFE IN OUR OTHER VEHICLE WHILE SHE DROVE THE PONTIAC. I WITNESSED THE BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON DURING TIMES WHEN THE LIGHTS SHOULD NOT BE ON. PULLING UP TO A STOP, I WITNESSED THE BRAKE LIGHTS GO OUT. BASICALLY, THE BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS NOT BEING APPLIED, AND GO OUT WHEN THE PEDAL IS BEING APPLIED. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS NOT A WARRANTY ISSUE, BUT A RECALL ISSUE. AFTER CONTACTING GM, I WAS TOLD THIS IS NOT PART OF THEIR VERY LIMITED RECALL AS THE RECALL IS VIN SPECIFIC . *TR | |
