Pontiac G6 Service Brakes Safety Report | Mar 01, 2012
Reported on Mar 01, 2012
| I HAVE HAD MY 2006 PONTIAC G6 SINCE MARCH 2011. I LOVE THE CAR BUT REALLY WISH I WOULD OF LOOKED UP REVIEWS ON IT BEFORE PURCHASING! FOR THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH MY BRAKE LIGHTS. I HAVE ALREADY SPENT SO MUCH MONEY TRYING TO GET IT FIXED! THE PROBLEM IS WHEN I'M DRIVING MY BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON AND WHEN I HIT THE BRAKES THE LIGHTS TURN OFF. ALSO THE CRUISE CONTROL RARELY WORKS BECAUSE OF THIS AND SOMETIMES IT IS HARD TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK. SINCE MY CAR WAS NOT IN THE PREVIOUS RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS, I HAVE PAID TWICE NOW TO BRING IT TO THE LOCAL GM DEALER (CBG) WHICH THEY APPLIED THE LUBRICANT TO WIRING GOING TO THE BCM! IT WORKS FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS THEN I HAVE THE PROBLEM AGAIN! I WAS TOLD THE SECOND TIME I WENT THAT IT WAS GOING TO COST 400$ TO GET A NEW BODY CONTROL MODULE BECAUSE THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. IT SEEMS LIKE IT IS GETTING WORSE AND WORSE BECAUSE NOW SOMETIMES THE BRAKE LIGHTS JUST STAY ON AND HAVE NO AFFECT WHEN I HIT THE BRAKES. HONESTLY I HAVE ALREADY SPENT SO MUCH MONEY ON TRYING TO GET THIS FIXED BETWEEN GM AND LOCAL MECHANICS THAT I JUST CAN'T AFFORD TO SPEND THE 400$ AND IT STILL NOT FIX!! I FINALLY HAVE THIS CAR PAID OFF SO IT WOULD BE CRAZY TO TRADE IN AND GET ANOTHER BILL. HAVING A 10 MONTH OLD I DON'T EVEN FEEL SAFE DRIVING HIM IN MY CAR OUT OF FEAR THAT I AM GONNA GET HIT BECAUSE OF THE BRAKE LIGHT ISSUE! SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BECAUSE THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A ISSUE WITH MANY G6'S! *TR | |
