| Model year | COMPONENT | Complaint |
| 2009 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC | TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 PONTIAC G6. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE BRAKE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED WITHOUT DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED THE BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD NOT ILLUMINATE. THE CRUISE CONTROL ALSO DISENGAGED WHENEVER THE BRAKE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ALTHOUGH THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT ENGAGED. THE FAILURE WAS DIAGNOSED BY THE AUTO SHOP MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED. THE MECHANIC STATED THE BRAKE SWITCH HAD TO BE REPLACED. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, THE FAILURE CONTINUED TO OCCUR. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000. |
| 2007 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | BRAKE LIGHTS, INCLUDING THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT, APPEAR TO BE ILLUMINATING WHEN THE BRAKE IS NOT APPLIED AND NOT ILLUMINATING WHEN THE BRAKE IS APPLIED. THEY APPEAR TO BE WORKING OPPOSITE THAN INTENDED. ALSO, CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGES INTERMITTENTLY AND CANNOT BE RESET UNTIL AFTER THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND STARTED AGAIN. I HAVE REPLACED THE WIRING HARNESS FOR BOTH HEADLAMPS BECAUSE THE CONNECTORS OVERHEATED AND CAUSED HEADLAMPS TO FAIL. THE BRAKE LIGHT MAY CAUSE ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT AND WILL MOST CERTAINLY CAUSE ME TO FAIL THE STATE INSPECTION. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY A FURTHER RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED OTHER THAN THE 2005 MODELS. OBVIOUSLY THE PROBLEM IS ACROSS THE ENTIRE PRODUCT LINE OF G6'S. *TR |
