Pontiac G6 Exterior Lighting Safety Report | Jan 01, 2010
Reported on Jan 01, 2010
| IN 2010 I PURCHACED A 2009 PONTIAC G6. I HAD IT FOR A COUPLE WEEKS AND MY HEAD LIGHTS BURNED OUT. I THEN GOT A NEW ONE AND IT BURNED OUT AGAIN THEN THE OTHER SIDE DID THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN. WHEN REPLACING IT I SEE THE SOCKET WAS BURNED AND MELTED. TO THIS DAY I HAVE TO REPLACE THE BULBS EVERY COUPLE WEEKS AND THEY GO OUT ON MY WAY TO WORK AND I WORK MIDNIGH, SO ITS VERY DANGEROUS. I ALSO HAVE BEEN ONLINE AND SEEN HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WHO ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND THEY CHATCH ON FIRE. THE CAR IS A 2009 PONTIAC G6 SADAN HERE IS THE LINK TO SEE ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE HAVING PROBLEMS. I HAVE ALSO SEEN MANY NEW G6 CARS ON THE ROAD WITH ONE HEAD LIGHT OUT AND THERE BRAND NEW.I WOULD HATE TO SEE THEM CATCH ON FIRE OR SOMEONE GET IN TO A ACCIDENT BECAUSE THEY CAN'T SEE AT NIGHT. I ALSO HAVE RECEIVED A TICKET FOR IT WHICH I HAD TO PAY BECAUSE PONTIAC DIDNT BUILD IT RIGHT. I CLICK UP ABOVE BECAUSE THE SOCKET WAS MELTED WHICH TELLS ME THERE WAS A FIRE.THERE ARE OVER 100 WEBSITES WITH PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.
