Electrical issue with my pontiac g6 I have had to replace my headlights bulbs multiple times due to the plugs melting I have actively seen the plug smoking and it has happened on both of my drl/low beam headlight bulbs resulting in plugs having to be replaced multiple times as well. My engine light isn't working and yet I have engine codes my service air bag light comes on at random my buckle seat belt light won't go off it stays on when I'm buckled in the driver's seat. My pressure sensor on my fuel tank has low voltage issues. When shutting the car off and opening the driver door all accessories that should of shut off are still active including the radio. The oil light is always turning on but the vehicle isn't low on oil nor does the message appear. When plugging in a car scanner the anti theft system light turns on and at random times will shut the car off. When the car scanner gets plugged in the rpms drop for a second and then go up as well. At times only one of my headlights work and I have to smack the headlight that isn't working to get it working.

The plastic hose that comes off the fuel pump cracked causing fuel to leak out of my car and very strong gas Vapors inside of my car. The smell of gas inside my car was so strong it literally made me sick not to mention gas leak in everywhere is never good. There was no light sensor or anything that come on to give any warnings still no lights on no check engine no nothing just fuel sausage and the smell is how I discovered it also there are many others with the Pontiac G6 GT they have the same issue which is why we are trying to report it to y'all as a safety concern

My 2007 pontiac g6 shifts so hard and my engine light stays on all the time I have looked up online and multiple people have the same problem with the 06-07 models and it's the same exact problem as mine . It shifts way to hard there should be a recall on this for sure ! No one has been able to find a legit solution to fixing this problem gm really messed up when they made these cars if I would have read reviews first I definitely would no have bought this car ! As soon a share you turn the car on and put it in to reverse or drive it jerks really hard then every 10 MPH you go it jerks you all the way forward trying to shift ! Definitely disappointed really hope they do a recall because I can't afford to keep trying to fix this problem and nothing seems to work ! I'm sure everyone will appreciate ignorance they do a recall !!

For awhile now my check engine light has been on and my no traction control light has been blinking so I had a full diagnostic inspection done that read nothing. As a result, I had them do a fuel system cleaning since there is a small jerky feel every time I drive. I also had them do a break fluid exchange but the no traction control light still blinks. Along with that, most times after fueling up my car, my car drives well and just fine but on september 18th, after fueling up, I was turning into traffic proceeding to the farthest lane so that I can turn left into my apartments then pop! And the steering wheel locked and the gear had locked in drive. This scared me so bad so I braked in every way I could hoping I wouldn't crash then tried shifting gears and cranking my car again. I got into the gates and into the parking lot then my car stalled and cut off again. I finally parked my car, popped the hood, and there was nothing wrong that I could see from my view. So, the next day september 19th I drove to class that morning and it stalled a bit any time I increased my speed as if it wanted to cut off. I got into the parking lot of my college and it cuts off as soon as I begin to turn into a parking spot between two cars. I crank it up, complete my park then I go inside for class until lunch. On lunch, I crank up my car and wow the check engine light is finally off but as usual the no traction control light is blinking. I test drive my car to the local winn dixie and back and on the way back pop! Then it stalls to cut off but doesn't cut off so I take it back to my college before lunch is over and park it. Now it's the end of the day and I'm out of class and headed home. This time I make it into the gate but I'm getting close to going over a speed bump and pop! It doesn't cut off but it's stalls badly like it wants too so I proceed to drive then park it. Please, help.

Power steering issues, check engine light are still coming on after my mechanic worked on it. Now it's saying to check my gas cap as well... I pull over to check it by opening and closing it again and it's fine for about .25-.50 of a mile.

The vehicle loses power steering assist at speeds below 20mph within 200 miles after being repaired. Once lost, power steering assist remains off and it takes brute strength to steer making it totally unsafe. Also, there are no warning indicators or check engine lights on the dashboard when this problem occurs. The dealership can't seem to fix it, so it seems a part in the power steering may be defective.
