Pontiac G6 Exterior Lighting Safety Report | Jan 15, 2012
Reported on Jan 15, 2012
| WHILE DRIVING MY 2005 PONTIAC G6, THE BRAKE LAMPS GO OFF WHEN I ACTUALLY PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL. THEY WILL STAY ON OR SOMETIMES FLASH AT RANDOM TIMES THE ENTIRE TIME I DRIVE. IT IS A WELL DOCUMENTED PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS AND IT IS RELATED TO CORROSION ON THE BCM. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE TO ME IN THIS CAR. PONTIAC HAS NEVER ISSUED A RECALL, THEIR WAY OF FIXING IT IS PUTTING DIELECTRIC GREASE ON THE CONNECTORS AND CALLING IT GOOD. IT WORKED FOR ME FOR ABOUT A YEAR, AND THE PROBLEM HAS RESURFACED....WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT 65MPH. FAULTY BRAKE LAMPS ARE AN EXTREME DANGER TO ANYONE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. *TR | |
