Pontiac G6 Service Brakes Safety Report | Aug 02, 2010
Reported on Aug 02, 2010
| I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 G6 WHEN SOMEONE PULLED UP BESIDE ME AND HONKED THEIR HORN TO GET MY ATTENTION. THE MAN INFORMED ME THAT MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ON WHILE I WAS DRIVING BUT TURNED OFF WHEN I WENT TO BRAKE FOR THE RED LIGHT. I TOOK MY CAR TO BE FIXED AT A SHOP NEAR MY HOME, HE REPLACED THE SENSOR IN THE BRAKE PEDAL. WHEN I LEFT HIS SHOP IT WORKED PERFECTLY FINE. WORKING FINE ONLY LAST ABOUT 8 MONTHS WHEN I NOTICED THE REFLECTION OF MY BRAKE LIGHTS IN TRAFFIC SIGNS WHEN I WASN'T PUSHING ON THE BRAKE I REALIZED I ONCE AGAIN WAS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. SINCE I HAVE LEFT THAT FIRST SHOP IN 2010, I HAVE TAKEN MY G6 TO 2 DIFFERENT SHOPS WITHIN THE LAST 3 YEARS PAYING UPWARDS OF $500.00 TO GET THE SAME ISSUE RESOLVED EACH TIME. THE LAST TIME I TOOK MY CAR TO THE GMC DEALERSHIP (2 WEEKS AGO); THEY INFORMED ME THAT I HAVE BEEN THERE IN JUNE OF 2011, SEPTEMBER OF 2012 AND NOW JUNE OF 2013. THE HEAD TECHNICIAN TOLD ME HE HAS NO IDEA WHAT THE ISSUE IS . HE UNPLUGGED EVERYTHING AND PLUGGED IT ALL BACK IN AND THEY WORKED FINE BUT THE ISSUE IS OBVIOUSLY NOT RESOLVED. *TR | |
