Tl* the contact owns a 2007 pontiac g6. While driving 40 MPH, the brakes were engaged and the brake lights failed to illuminate. The contact was aware of the federal safety agency campaign number: 14v252000 (electrical system, electronic stability control, exterior lighting, service brakes, hydraulic, vehicle speed control); however, the manufacturer advised the contact that the vehicle had been previously repaired under the recall. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 61,000. Ma 10/14 the consumer stated the problem could be eliminated if the dealer would comply with the recall. Updated 01/11/16.
The passenger side airbag indicator light will come on. This has been happening since 2011. I believe this has a correlation with the battery because when the indicator light starts to come on every time I'm driving the car, I know the battery will soon die. I have been through three batteries since owning my car (2010). Once I get a new battery, the indicator light will not come on for a while.
I was pulling my car out of a parking lot onto a busy street when the car just shut off. No warning signs were given, just turned off, leaving me half way pulled into traffic. Had to shut the ignition off and restart the car.
I had to replace the passenger low beam headlight back in february 2015 and again in april 2015. The low beam headlight went out again 3 days later. I have since been pulled over for a headlight lamp being out. I keep replacing the low beam headlight but clearly it's not the bulb. I had a 2008 pontiac g6 prior to the 2007 pontiac g6 and it had the same problem with the passenger low beam headlight. I called gm to see about recalls for this issue and was told it was the brake lamp malfunction. I specified that nothing was wrong with my brake lights and they then told me it was still under the recall so they scheduled and appointment with the dealership to have it fixed. Upon arriving home after I left the dealership for this recall and the passenger low beam headlight was still out. I immediately called the dealership back and told them it was still out and they preceeded to tell me it was not part of the recall. So now my headlight is still out and I have nobody to help me address this issue. It is a safety issue. I have to drive with the high beam lights on just to be able to see at night.
Our pontiac g6 was recalled for electrical issues. The brake lights went on when not braking and wouldn't go on when I braked. Anyway, it was "fixed" on 10/12/14 with the recall . So now the same issue is occurring. We had it fixed 2 times previous to the recall.the problem is this is a serious problem, if their recalled "fix" didn't work, all of the owners are in the same dilemma.
I was driving home and pulled into my apartment complex and my car completely shut do and would not start. I parked into a parking space and waited about 5 secs and my car started.
Headlamp wiring is defective from the factory. Headlamp wiring and connectors burn out due to inability to withstand heat generated by normal factory headlamp bulbs. This is a widely known problem. Numerous complaints exist on this site, in addition to service bulletins. Every mechanic in town, dealership, body shop, etc. Says the same thing. "until they issue a recall, there is nothing we can do but keep charging you to fix the connector." I have paid three times to have this issue fixed and my car has 62,000 miles on it. When will someone investigate this and issue a proper recall? It is not safe to have your headlights suddenly go out when driving 75 MPH on the interstate in the middle of the night.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 pontiac g6. While driving approximately 35 MPH, the vehicle stalled without warning. After restarting, the vehicle resumed normal operation. The failure recurred numerous times. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was unavailable.
On my way into work this morning, the warning for "power steering" flashed on my car and the steering suddenly quit working on my 2007 pontiac g6. I was going about 40 MPH on a straight stretch through town. Luckily, I hadn't merged to get on the interstate yet. Took the car to the nearest dealership and they informed me it's the torque sensor on the electric power steering. They also stated that there was a recall for 2006-2007 pontiac g6's, but that my car/VIN was not covered under this recall as it was built outside of the batch of cars the recall covered. I have to pay $230 out of pocket until they decide that this is an issue. This is clearly a manufacturing issue and could be very dangerous for all drivers on the highway. See recall details below: recall subject : sudden loss of electric power steering , 1 investigation(s) report receipt date: feb 04, 2015 the federal safety agency campaign number: 15v064000 component(s): steering potential number of units affected: 69,633 manufacturer: general motors llc.

I was parked in a parking lot and my air bag light came on and it flashes check air bags. And my seat belts won't extend to buckle. Also, under my hood it starts to smoke and there's no leak or anything.
1. Blower motor for the heating and cooling system stop working, took it back to the dealer as it was still under warranty, but because the blower was working when I took it in the dealer said nothing is wrong..took the car in three times for the same thing...I slowly lost all dial control 1-3 except 4...in 2009 gm recalled 2007 silverado's trucks for same thing the g6 blower motor was doing. Why is gm aloud to cherry pick who gets their car fixed and who doesn't...2. Airbag light come on and says to service air bag, so I call my gm dealer he had no idea of what I was saying. I took a picture when the service air bag light came on , showed the picture to the dealer and because it did not do that while looking at the car, again they say can't see nothing wrong with it...it still happens, and I am very afraid of the air bag issue's. Beginning to think gm dealers are working with gm to avoid repairs, as my car was still under warranty. And because the car does not do it when they look at it , nothing is wrong...don't feel safe, my children are informed, if I get into a car accident they know where to look, and who to go after.. Help !

Upon accelerating at speeds above 50mph, my traction control indicator will come on, sometimes saying traction off, and sometimes saying to service traction. It will sometimes stay on and make my car jerk around a lot while it's shifting gears. If it doesn't go away shortly after it came on, it will go away once I leave my car turned off for a while. It happens so randomly, and sometimes will be months between episodes, that when I've taken it to have it looked at, they can't get it to happen.

Headlamps for all vehicles: the newer blue, pink, purple colored headlights are blinding to light sensitive eyes. Bright lights are bad enough and then almost every vehicle has fog lights that people leave on all the time and are blinding. But, these new colored lights actually hurt light sensitive eyes & totally blind you for more than a second. First time I encountered it scared the heck out of me. More & more people I talk to have the same problem. In heavy traffic at night I have to wear my sunglasses which reduces my visibility. These lights need to be banned before there's a major accident caused by blinding.

When I was driving, don't know for sure the speed, the engine started to overheat the A/C started blowing hot air I stopped at an auto parts store and replaced a cooling sensor on the side of the engine. Some how it kept doing it only in the summer. Then not long after that my oil pressure light kept going on and off periodically. Either speeding up or going around corners it comes on dining and turning the light on. The oil pressure light started coming on just after an oil change. I've had it changed twice since then and its still happening. No one seems to know what it is.
Airbag lamp illuminates while vehicle is in operation. The driver information center displays an airbag malfunction message and has a warning chime. During this time the system is identifying that the airbag system is not operating. The issues seems to be related to the sensor in the front passenger seat. If the vehicle is shut off the error message and indicator lamp go away. This has been happening more frequently over the last year. In addition the driver information center sometimes fails to turn on with the vehicle, making it hard to tell when there is an issue with the vehicle. During this time the information screen/radio are not illuminated. This is corrected by shutting off and restarting the vehicle.
