Pontiac G6 Exterior Lighting Safety Report | Jan 18, 2010
Reported on Jan 18, 2010
| I WAS DRIVING MY GRANDPARENTS IN MY 2006 PONTIAC G6 AND WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY MY POWER STEERING SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF AND RIGHT TO A REPAIR SHOP BUT THIS IS AN EXTREMELY UNSAFE PROBLEM TO HAVE. I'VE BEGUN LOOKING INTO COMMON PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR AND IT SEEMS THERE ARE A FEW OTHER COMMON PROBLEMS THAT MAKE THIS CAR UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND GIVE IT A GUARANTEED EXPENSIVE REPAIR BILL. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS HAVE ALSO APPARENTLY SHORTED OUT AND I WILL NOW BE CHECKING FOR A COMMON PROBLEM I HAVE HEARD IN WHICH THE BRAKE LIGHTS MAY BE ON EVEN WHEN THE BRAKES ARE NOT BEING APPLIED DUE TO CORROSION OF A WIRE. THESE PROBLEMS ARE VERY SERIOUS AND COULD EASILY CAUSE ACCIDENTS, ESPECIALLY FOR A 20 YEAR OLD FIRST TIME CAR BUYER LIKE MYSELF. *TR | |
