My vehicle was stationary at a red light waiting to turn left on a city street in park, as I tried shifting gears back to drive the car jerked forward very intensely ' which it has done multiple times before' . Before reaching the drive position. It then proceeded forward out of my control into the back of a truck linking my front bumper to the hinge on the back of the truck.. In the midst of that I immediately tried shifting into reverse but doing so was very difficult has the car kept pressing forward into the back of the truck, so I put the car in park then back to reverse when it finally shifted into the reverse gear vigorously which then abled be to detach from the truck. I pulled to the nearest parking lot to check the damage, and seen multiple leaks not sure where from.

I live in alaska and I've never gotten a notice and I've been in two collision because of it and I haven't known why. I've had to pay my deductible because of it and numerous damages because of it.
I am greatly in need of your assistance. I own a 2007 pontiac g6 hardtop convertible. I purchased it in january 2016. About a month after purchase, I tried to put the top up . On its way to closing and locking its mechanism caused a malfunction and broke the part number 25887153 away. I immediately contacted the dealer @ gm of vacaville, ca. The dealership told me, 'this part is no longer available', & they had my vehicle for 3 weeks. I have incurred $ 1400. In auto rental fees. I have talked with more than 20 pontiac dealers all state; "we have been told by gm to say - the part no longer exist and is not available"the parts manufacture, karmann made the part for gm. They may have the part in their warehouse. But, according to their employee, gm will not give their permission to sell it the worst thing is: I have been in contact with over 25 parts dealers I called gm at 1‑866‑790‑5600 ext. 5914235 and spoke with natalie. She attempted to assist but after no progress . A male answered the phone he indicated that he was her supervisor, however refuted to give me his name, and then stated, 'it's not available, the part is discontinued, and pontiac doesn't exist so get over it, or deal with it! It's not my problem, it's yours, and you don't even have a warranty cause its expired.' he slammed the phone down in my ear. Please assist me to get the part, or buy back the vehicle and return my incurred costs of $13,500.the "top is not secure" has left no option but to purchase another vehicle. The g6 is garaged and undrivable

We bought this convertible pontiac 2007 g6 almost a year ago & had trouble with the top not working. It has been worked on 5 times since we've had it & right now still not working. If you try to put it down it will get stuck in mid-air & may set there for 12 hours before it goes down & it will say top is not secure so you can't drive it like that. Place where we got it had it about 2 months ago & said they're waiting for a part that is ordered but we talked to the pontiac dealership this morning & they said that part is no longer being made & they told the guy we the car from if he could find the part & they start fixing it & something else is wrong they wouldn't be able to fix this car. So basically we have been paying for the car for 1 year now - haven't been able to use the top - my husband has missed work because the top was suppose to be fixed he'd try to put it down & it gets stuck in mid-air & you can't put it down when it does that it sets for about 12 hours before it will close on it's own. We can't drive it when is says top is not secure because it may blow off & then sometimes the trunk gets stuck & you can't open that and get anything our of it. I am just at a loss here we're paying for something that is not safe to drive & if you do luck out and get the top down after it's been worked on you just have to pray that it goes back up securely. And how can they stop making a part for a car that is only a 2007 & convertible top. We are just frustrated with this whole situation and still have to finish paying for this car or it goes against us. We are at a loss for what to do about this.
