| 2005 | STEERING | TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 PONTIAC G6. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH EXCESSIVE FORCE WAS APPLIED TO THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN MAKING A RIGHT TURN; HOWEVER, MAKING A LEFT TURN DID NOT REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FORCE. THE POWER STEERING FAILED SPORADICALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE STEERING COLUMN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT THE OWNER EXPENSE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THERE ARE TWO OTHER PEOPLE THAT DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND BOTH HAVE EXPERIENCED POWER STEERING FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 102,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 102,900. UPDATED 05/18/10. *LJ |
| 2009 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC | I HAVE A NEW 2009 PONTIAC G6 AND THE BRAKES SQUEAK TERRIBLY. MANY MECHANICS HAVE SAID THIS IS DUST CAUSING THIS. I DO NOT AGREE. THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING WRONG. I HAVE HAD MANY OTHER VEHICLES AND THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN. PONTIAC SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR CORRECTING THIS ISSUE. IT IS A TOTAL NUISANCE. HOW DO I KNOW THE BRAKES WILL NOT GO OUT. THEY DID NOT SQUEAK WHEN WE TEST DROVE AS IF IT DID, I WOULD HAVE NEVER MADE THE PURCHASE. I AM VERY DISSATISFIED WITH THIS NEW CAR. *TR |
