Pontiac G6 Exterior Lighting Safety Report | Oct 12, 2009
Reported on Oct 12, 2009
| IN NOVEMBER 2007 MY WIFE STARTED EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH HER BRAKE LIGHTS ON HER 2006 G6. SHE WAS STOPPED A COUPLE OF TIMES BY THE LOCAL POLICE DUE TO HER BRAKE LIGHTS STAYING ON CONSTANTLY. ON 12/6/2007 WE TOOK OUR CAR TO A REPAIR SHOP AND PAID $106.94 TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. THEY R&R'D A BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH. AFTER THAT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED, WE TOOK IT BACK AND THEY FINALLY SAID THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT WAS WRONG SINCE THEY REPLACED THE SWITCH A SECOND TIME. WE'VE CONTINUED TO HAVE SUFFER THROUGH THE PROBLEM UNTIL A CO-WORKER OF MY WIFE'S STATED THAT HIS WIFE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THAT THERE WAS A GM PRODUCT SAFETY RECALL ON G6'S FOR THAT PROBLEM. TODAY WE TOOK OUR CAR TO A GM DEALER AND WAS REFUSED SERVICE BECAUSE OUR VIN NUMBER DOESN'T FALL BETWEEN 64100001 AND 64100093. WE'VE EXPERIENCED ALL THE SAME PROBLEMS DESCRIBED IN THE MEMO AND SHE'S EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS ON THE ROAD (ALMOST BEING HIT FROM THE REAR BECAUSE DRIVERS FOLLOWING HER CAN'T TELL WHEN SHE'S BRAKING) WHEN TRAVELING BECAUSE THIS CONDITION EXIST. WE'RE SIMPLY ASKING HELP IN GETTING THIS SITUATION RESOLVED (GETTING OUR CAR FIXED). WE'VE BEEN LOYAL GM CUSTOMERS UP TO NOW, (WE ALSO OWN A BONNEVILLE AND A CHEVY VAN) BUT WITH SERVICE SUCH AS THIS THAT SITUATION IS LIKELY TO CHANGE. *TR | |
