Pontiac G6 Electronic Stability Control Safety Report | Nov 01, 2008
Reported on Nov 01, 2008
| BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ILLUMINATED WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN CAR IS IN PARK, WITHOUT BRAKE BEING DEPRESSED. WHEN BRAKE IS ACTUALLY BEING DEPRESSED, BRAKE LIGHTS ARE NOT ILLUMINATED. CRUISE CONTROL WORKS INTERMITTENTLY, SOMETIMES GOING OFF WHILE DRIVING AFTER BEING SET. DIFFICULT TO SWITCH GEARS OUT OF PARK AT TIMES. HAVE TAKEN IT TO MECHANIC TWICE. FIRST TIME HAD A SENSOR REPLACED. SECOND TIME HAD THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH REPLACED. PROBLEMS STILL NOT RESOLVED. AFTER SEEING A PREVIOUS RECALL IN 2009 FOR THIS SAME ISSUE I CHECKED INTO IT AND MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED IN THAT RECALL. DRIVING WITH CHILDREN IN MY CAR, IT IS A MAJOR CONCERN FOR ME, ESPECIALLY WITH THE BRAKE LIGHT ISSUE. THERE ARE MANY TIMES WHEN PEOPLE ALMOST REAR END US BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. I HOPE THAT ANOTHER RECALL IS ISSUED SOON TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM BEFORE PEOPLE GET SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED AS A RESULT. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS MALFUNCTION! *TR | |
