| 2005 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | ELECTRICAL. THE INFORMATION/RADIO/TEMP READING MALFUNCTIONS AND RESETS ITSELF. THE TEMPERATURE READING WILL STAY AT 77 DEGREES FOR HOURS (WHEN TEMP IS OTHER THAN THAT). WHILE LISTENING TO A CD, AND HITTING THE EJECT BUTTON - DISPLAY READS "NO DISC". RADIO WILL RESET ALL STATIONS AND TIME. RADIO DISPLAY WILL FLASH LINES OR NOT EVEN COME ON AT TIMES. OCCASIONALLY, IN WARM WEATHER, ON INITIAL START UP, RPM AND ENGINE WILL REV CLOSE TO 2000 RPM. BACK LIGHTING FOR COMFORT CONTROLS HAVE CHANGED FROM RED LIGHT TO ORANGE. ** THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, IN MY OPINION, GO FURTHER THAN RADIO INFORMATION, BUT APPARENTLY TO THE FUNCTION OF TEMPERATURE CONTROL WHILE STARTING THE CAR - AS STATED IN WARM WEATHER 85 DEGREES, IT START AS IF TEMP IS 20 DEGREES OUT. THIS HAS BEEN IN FOR SERVICE 3 TIMES. TWO TIMES THE RADIO WITH THE INFORMATION DISPLAY WAS REPLACED AND ANOTHER OCCASION THE TEMP SENSOR WAS REPLACED. PROBLEM CONTINUES. *JB |
| 2009 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | I HAVE A 2009 PONTIAC G6 GT. SINCE THE TIME THAT WE HAVE BOUGHT OUR CAR WE HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT. WE HAVE REPLACED THE PIGTAILS AND ALL THE WIRING. WE REPLACED THE BULB EVERY FEW WEEKS FOR IT TO ONLY BURN OUT A FEW DAYS LATER. NO ONE CAN TELL US WHY THIS PROBLEM CAN NOT BE FIXED. THERE HAVE BEEN HUNDREDS MAYBE THOUSAND OF COMPLAINTS ON ONLINE FORUMS ABOUT HEADLIGHT PROBLEMS AND EVEN FIRE AND MELTING OF THE HOUSING. I AM CONSTANTLY PULLED OVER DUE TO THE HEADLIGHT BEING OUT. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. WITHOUT PROPERLY WORKING HEADLIGHTS PEOPLE ARE GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILL SOMEONE BECAUSE WE CAN'T SEE PROPERLY. *TR |
