2007 PONTIAC G6 Fuel/propulsion System Problems

I bought my G6 in 2022. After about a year of having it, issues started happening. Everything was fine up until my passenger side airbag warning appeared on my radio screen and it won't go off. Could be a serious issue with the airbag. Maybe around the end of 2023 I started having problems with my power steering. I could drive down the road and all of a sudden my steering wheel would lock up. I could barely get myself to a spot to get off the road. I had to force the steering wheel to turn. I shut the car off for a minute or so just to see what would happen. After I turned the car back on the steering cleared, but as soon as I decided to go back home it locked back up. Now it's starting to lock back up this year. My major issue I have is the gas smell that's coming from the car. The smell is so strong, it's coming inside the car. When I went to get some tires put on car, the mechanic said he smelled the gas and there was a gas leak coming from the tank. The smell is so strong it can cause someone to pass out. It also causes the car to stall when trying to start it. I don't think this is safe. I have to drive my grand kids in my car. There needs to be a recall on this gas leak issue. Someone can get killed or badly injured if not taken seriously. I didn't have any warning signals appear at all about the gas/fuel issue.

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.

Bad fuel leak , location from top of fuel cell, Definitely from the fuel pump area of the top of the tank. Can't drive because it leaks so bad that fuel is dropping on top of the exhaust pipes and I am afraid of a fire any time driving the vehicle.i really like the vehicle but can't drive it because of safety reasons. What now? I have read of other G6 Pontiacs having recalls done so why isn't my vin. Covered the same way? I am very concerned about this leak and for others with the same , considering that it is high risk for loss of life...

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

i was driving my car and stopped at a stop sign and my car shut down could not get it to turn back on at all had to get it towed to my apt then get it towed to a mechanic he said it was the starter and said it will continue to turn off untill the throttle body and map sensor are fixed also said 8f i turn my ac on it will turn off because something about the valve broke I'm not sure what that meant but i only had the car not even 3 months I spoke to the car lot who sold it to me and he told me i would have to pay for it and i don't have that kind of money i spent $3500 for the purchase of the car not so it can brake down 2 months later

Headlight went out . Upon changing it I noticed that wiring harness was burnt and melted. Also was driving and power steering went out driving 65 miles per hour. The cruise control got stuck . Right side making horrible noise at times. This has put me and my five year old as well as anyone driving near me at risk of dying.

STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE ALL THE TIME, WE GOT THE IN THE SUMMER

LEAKING GASOLINE

Mileage: 100

MY 2007 PONTIAC G6 SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT....THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT HELP ME...THEY SAID THEY KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BUT THEY REFUSE TO TELL ME HOW TO FIX IT...THEY SAID IT COSTS AT LEAST $1200. I AM DISABLED I DO NOT HAVE ANY MONEY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM....I RECEIVE $1064. PER MONTH SOCIAL SECURITY... I KNOW THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS EXACT PROBLEM YET THERE IS NO RECALL...SO, DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE IN ORDER TO GET THIS GASOLINE PROBLEM REPAIRED?? I'M WAITING ....WAITING....WAITING

THE PROBLEM IS MY GAS TANK. SOMETIMES THE TANK SHIFTS WHERE I CAN BARELY GET THE GAS NOZZLE INTO THE GAS TANK AS IT IS PARTIALLY BLOCKED. IT FIRST HAPPENED OVER A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, BUT THEN IT GOES BACK INTO PLACE. I USED THE DATE OF THE MOST RECENT TIME I NOTICED IT HAPPENED. I FIGURED THIS WAS WEAR AND TEAR, BUT I'M SEEING OTHER COMPLAINTS THAT MAY BE RELATED TO THIS. I AM SEEING COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME CAR ABOUT A STRONG GAS SMELL, WITH LEAKS, THOUGH, I HAVE NEVER NOTICED EITHER ONE. I, ALSO, SAW A 2007 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX RECALL ON A GAS TANK SEAL.

Mileage: 80,000

I HAVE REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR, THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING ASSIST MOTOR AND AIR FILTER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND, AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, HAVE FOUND THAT MY CAR IS EXPERIENCING EVERY ISSUE TH'S TO HAVE SEEN IN PREVIOUS GM VEHICLE SAFETY RECALLS. UNFORTUNATELY, MY VIN NUMBER SEEMS TO BE ONE OF THOSE THAT HAS NOT BEEN IDENTIFIED HAS HAVING HAD THOSE ISSUES ALTHOUGH IT CURRENTLY IS EXPERIENCING THEM. I WANT TO LODGE A COMPLAINT THAT THE VIN NUMBER SEARCH TOOL IS NOT ACCURATE ENOUGH TO DETERMINE THE VALIDITY OF A CLAIM. I SAY THIS BECAUSE EVEN ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE, THE TOOL SAYS THAT NOT ALL VIN NUMBERS THAT ARE EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH A RECALL HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN ASSOCIATED TO ANY RECALLS. AS THERE DO EXIST CURRENT RECALLS FOR ALL 07 PONTIAC G6 MODELS, THERE ARE NO RECALLS RELATED TO MY SPECIFIC VIN NUMBER. BUT, ALL OF THE RECALLS DIRECTLY MENTION EVERY ISSUES THAT MY CAR IS CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING. INCLUDING, THE TRANSMISSION NOT PROPERLY SHIFTING DUE TO A MADNESS OR BREAK IN THE SHIFT CABLE, THE POWER STEERING MOTOR SUDDENLY DYING, THE CAR EXPERIENCING A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER, ETC. EACH OF THESE ISSUES IS DIRECTLY MENTIONED IN A RECALL FOR G6 MODELS IN GENERAL, BUT FOR SOME REASON, NOT FOR MY CAR, SPECIFICALLY?

Mileage: 190,000

POWER STEERING MESSAGE POPS UP AND IT MAKES IT VERY HARD TO TURN. THIS MAY HAPPEN WHEN YOU CRANK THE VEHICLE OR WILL HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. IT MAKES IT PULL TO THE SIDE. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS. ALSO, MY CAR HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE GAS(FUEL PUMP) THE FUEL PUMP LEAKS FAST ONTO THE GAS TANK. THAT IS A FIRE HAZARD. IT IS ALSO HORRIBLE ON MY GAS MILEAGE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AND IF THERE IS ONE ALREADY OR NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED. I'VE HAD NOTHING BUT TROUBLE OUT OF THIS VEHICLE. AND SPENT TOO MUCH MONEY ON IT. THERE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE ELECTRIC BOX AND IT THROWS CODES FOR MULTIPLE PROBLEMS, AND WHEN THOSE PROBLEMS ARE FIXED IT DOESN'T HELP. IT'S COSTING PEOPLE MONEY FOR NOTHING.

Mileage: 148,000

TAKATA RECALL MY SON GAVE ME THIS VEHICLE AND IT SENT ME A WARNING ABOUT ENGINE LOSS WHILE DRIVING. SOMETIMES IT PICKS UP AND SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T. I ALSO NOTICED IT DOESN'T HAVE A TRANSMISSION FLUID RESIVOIR. SOMETIMES THEIRS A GAS LEAK WHILE IDLE AND SOMETIMES THEY DON'T.

STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE AFTER DRIVING THE CAR WHEN PARKED OUTSIDE OR IN A GARAGE. NO SIGNS OF FUEL LEAKS ON THE GROUND. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 65K MILES ON IT. THIS CAN POSE A DANGER SINCE MANY HOME HAVE THE HOT WATER HEATER IN THE GARAGE WITH A PILOT LIGHT. ALSO THIS FUEL ODOR IS AROUND THE EXHAUST SYSTEM OF THE CAR. DO WE HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE DIES OR LOSES THEIR HOME BEFORE GM WITH TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR POOR ENGINEERING?

MY CAR HAS A STRONG GAS SMELL ON TH BACK PASSENGER SIDE. IT'S HAD BEEN GOING ON FOR ALMOST A YEAR. I'M FINALLY ABLE TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AND HOPEFULLY FIXED AT A LOCAL DEALERSHIP. THE SMELL OF GAS IS SO STRONG IT IS NAUSEATING AND CAN BE SMELLED SEVERAL FEET AWAY FROM THE CAR. I'M WORRIED THAT THERE IS A GAS LEAK AND IT IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I HAVE TO TRANSPORT MY THREE CHILDREN. I'VE NOTICED THE SMELL SEEMS TO BE WORSE WHEN PARKED BUT GAS CAN BE SMELT INSIDE THE CAR WHILE DRIVING AS WELL.

FUEL SMELL AT REAR OF VEHICLE NEAR GAS TANK. VEHICLE HAS 93K MILES.

THE CAR HAD A VERY HARD TIME STARTING AFTER SITTING SO THE ENTIRE FUEL PUMP MODULE HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE MECHANICS TOLD US THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM IN THESE CARS.

Mileage: 150,000

PONTIAC G6 FUEL LEAKING AND HARD TO START. I THINK THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE COVERED BY GM. IT IS REGISTERED IN NEVADA AND I READ AN ARTICLE THAT GM IS SUPPOSED TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP BECAUSE OF A CRACK IN THE FUEL PUMP. MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP SAYS THIS DOES NOT COVER MY VEHICLE AND MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. THE FUEL MODULE HAS BEEN REPLACED ONCE FOR A LEAKING FUEL SMELL. I THINK IN 2011. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED AS HAVING A FUEL PUMP LEAK.

Mileage: 68,700

SMELT GASOLINE AROUND BACK OF CAR. HAPPENED ANYTIME...PARKED OR RUNNING. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS LEAKING ON TOP OF GAS TANK. SAID IT WOULD BE AROUND $800 TO FIX IT CAUSE THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE TANK. MY CAR NOT UNDER THE RECALL.

Mileage: 159,000

INCREASINGLY OVER THE LAST MONTH THERE HAS BEEN A STRONG SMELL OF GAS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE CAR. IT'S STRONGER WHEN STATIONARY. ONE MORNING THE SMELL HAD ENTERED OUR HOME FROM THE GARAGE WHICH IS NEXT TO MY DAUGHTERS ROOM. THE CAR HESITATES OR MAY NOT TURN OVER AT ALL WHEN TURNING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AS OTHER VEHICLES OF THIS TYPE BUT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. IT WAS ALSO PURCHASED AND IS STILL REGISTERED IN FLORIDA. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD CREATED BY GM SPECIFICATIONS.

STRONG FUEL SMELL COMING FROM REAR OF VEHICLE. THIS APPEARS TO BE RELATED TO THE PLASTIC ELBOW GM USED IN THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD. RESEARCH SHOWS THIS IS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH 2007 G5 MODELS AND OTHER GM VEHICLES AND HAVE ACTIVE RECALLS IN PLACE. THERE ARE SEVERAL NHTSA COMPLAINTS FOR THIS PROBLEM AND SAME MODEL/YEAR VEHICLE AS MINE. CONTACTED GM AND THEY REFUSE TO TAKE ANY ACTION AT THIS TIME. THE DEALER COST TO REPAIR THIS MANUFACTURER DEFECT IS APPROXIMATELY $800.00. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE THAT GM IS NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THIS ISSUE AND IS REFUSING TO TAKE ACTION. IS THIS GOING TO REMAIN OPEN UNTIL THERE IS A FATALITY CAUSED BY THIS KNOWN ISSUE?

I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO SPEAK TO THE DEALER I PURCHASED THIS CAR FROM AND HAVE BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL. I HAVE AN ENGINE OIL LEAK, GAS LEAK, AND I AM NOT ABLE TO TURN MY WHEEL LEFT OR RIGHT AS SOMETHING IS AND HAS BEEN GOING ON WITH MY POWERSTEERING. I HAVE PAID FOR REPAIRS BUT HAVE BEEN PUSHED OFF AND GIVEN THE RUN AROUND ABOUT ALL THAT I HAVE SAID. MY CAR IS AND HAS BEEN UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND NOW I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO AS IT HAS GOTTEN TERRIBLY WORSE. I HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT ALL RECALLS WERE DONE (BY THE DEALER), AND OTHER SOURCES HAVE ADVISED ME THEY COULD NOT HAVE BEEN DONE WITH THE PROBLEMS THAT I AM BEEN HAVING AND THAT I AM CURRENTLY HAVING.

WHEN I VISITED A REPUTABLE BRAKE SHOP FOR A BRAKE CHECK, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT MY VEHICLE HAD A GASOLINE LEAK NEAR THE EXHAUST PIPE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO ANOTHER BRAKE SHOP WHICH DROPPED MY GASOLINE TANK, ONLY TO DISCOVER THAT MY VEHICLE HAD A LEAKY FUEL PUMP. BEFORE THIS BRAKE SHOP WORKED ON MY VEHICLE, THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT HE WAS ALMOST SURE THAT THE FUEL PUMP HAD BEEN RECALLED. I PROCEEDED TO GO TO BRIAN HARRIS CHEVROLET, WHERE THE SERVICE MANAGER CHECKED MY VIN NUMBER, ONLY TO INFORM ME THAT MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT HAVE A RECALL ON THE FUEL PUMP. I WAS TOLD THAT GENERAL MOTORS WOULD REIMBURSE ME FOR THE FUEL PUMP REPLACEMENT, EVEN IF IT WAS NOT REPLACED AT A DEALERSHIP, IF THE FUEL PUMP MIGHT BE RECALLED IN THE FUTURE. I WENT BACK TO THE OTHER FACILITY FOR THE FUEL PUMP REPLACEMENT AS A RESULT. I LOOKED ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND OUT THAT GENERAL MOTORS HAD RECALLED PONTIAC G6'S FOR THE MODEL YEARS 2004-2008. MY VEHICLE HAD BEEN SMELLING OF GASOLINE FOR AWHILE WHEN STATIONARY AND I DID NOT KNOW WHY. MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT ONE MONTH PRIOR, WHERE I HAD A FUEL SENSOR CODE PULLED. ABOUT ONE WEEK LATER THE ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF. MY LEAKING FUEL PUMP WAS ONLY DISCOVERED ABOUT ONE MONTH LATER, ONLY BECAUSE I HAPPENED TO GO GET MY BRAKES CHECKED.

I HAVE HAD MY CAR CHECKED OUT TWICE FOR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND REPLACED GAS CAP. THE LIGHT REMAINS ON AND I STILL SMELL GAS THATS NOT SAFE...PLEASE HELP!!

VEHICLE HAS A STRONG GAS SMELL EMITTING FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE AND REAR OF THE VEHICLE, REGARDLESS OF IF IT IS TURNED ON OR OFF. THERE IS NO VISIBLE LEAKAGE BUT THE ODOR IS STRONG ENOUGH TO NOTICE ANYWHERE IN A 5 FOOT RADIUS OF THE VEHICLE. MANY SIMILAR REPORTS REFERENCE A HAIRLINE CRACK THAT FORMS OVER TIME IN THE PLASTIC ELBOW CONNECTING THE FUEL PUMP ABOVE THE GAS TANK. THE REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT COSTS APPEAR TO BE BETWEEN $700 AND $900 AND THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 47,000 MILES. THIS ISSUE IS VERY CONCERNING AS I CANNOT PARK THE CAR IN MY GARAGE FOR FEAR OF THE GAS SMELL BUILDING UP. IT SEEMS LIKE A COMMON ENOUGH ISSUE IN THE PONTIAC G6 THAT GM SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS DANGEROUS FLAW IN THEIR FUEL PUMP MODULE.

RHODES AUTO SALES AS WELL AS GM HAS GIVEN ME A RUN FOR MY LIFE.

I HAVE DOCUMENTS TO SHOW THIS ISSUE WITH THE GM DEALER AND THEY REUSED TO ACCOMMODATE ME WITH THE ISSUE THAT THEIR PARTS WERE INEFFECTIVE AND THEY DID NOT ABIDE THEIR WARRANTY BY A FEW MILES AND TO WORK WITH ME TO FILE A GOOD FAITH CLAIM, MEANING SOMETIMES GM PAYS FOR ALL OR SOME OF THE REPAIR BASED ON THE REPORT, BUT MUST HAVE DIAGNOSTIC TEST DONE AT DEALER AND NONE OF THE DEALERS COULD GET ME AN APPT, AND I WAS DRIVING AROUND FOR 4 WEEKS WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND DID NOT WANT TO DAMAGE MY VEHICLE WITH NOT BEING ABLE TO GET AN APPOINTMENT AT ANY TIME SOON. *TR

NEXT ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO MY RIGHT HEADLIGHT LOW BEAM WENT OUT AND MY BOYFRIEND TOOK OUT LIGHT AND NOTICED THE WIRES WERE COMPLETELY BURNED OFF FINALLY GOT THAT REPLACED. WHEN I GOT MY CONVERTER REPLACED THEY TOLD ME THE MILEAGE WOULD GET BETTER AND THE GAS SMELL WOULD GO AWAY A YEAR LATER NOW ITS GETTING WORSE AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY A FRIEND THAT ITS MY FUEL PUMP AND ITS LEAKING GAS . I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AROUND WITH MY 1 YEAR OLD SON WITH A GAS LEAK FOR A YEAR WHICH SCARES ME AND ALSO MAKES ME UPSET ESPECIALLY WHEN I SEE THAT THE G5 WAS RECALLED FOR THIS ISSUE ALSO AND ITS COMMON BECAUSE THEY ARE PUTTING ME AND MY FAMILY AT RISK BY NOT EXTENDING THE RECALL TO THE G6 SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. NOW IM LEFT TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO FIX THIS WHEN IM A ONE CAR ONE INCOME FAMILY . PLEASE HELP AND PLEASE FIX THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. *TR

I NOTICED A FUEL SMELL FROM THE INSIDE OF THE CAR, THE CAR ALSO WOULD NOT START ON FIRST ATTEMPT, IT ALMOST ALWAYS STARTED ON SECOND ATTEMPT, NOTICE FUEL DRIPPING FROM FUEL PUMP/TANK/LINE JUST IN FRONT OF PASSENGER SIDE REAR TIRE, I LIVE IN LAS VEGAS, NV A HOT WEATHER STATE, LOOKED ONLINE FOUND A RECALL REGARDING THIS ISSUE IN HOT WEATHER STATES WITH OTHER GM VEHICLES, TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, AND THEY WANT $984 FOR PARTS AND LABOR.

MY CAR STARTED TO BE SLOW TO TURN ON AND WOULD CRANK. AT THE SAME TIME I WOULD NOTICE A SMELL OF GASOLINE FROM THE REAR OF MY VEHICLE. THE SMELL OF THE RAW GASOLINE WAS VERY APPARENT WHEN THE CAR WOULD SIT IN MY GARAGE. THE SLOW STARTING OF THE CAR BECAME WORSE AND WORSE. I READ ABOUT SIMILAR ISSUES WITH A RECALL ON THE PONTIAC G5 MODEL FUEL PUMPS. I TOOK IT TO A CERTIFIED GM SERVICE SHOP AND THEY INDICATED IT WAS A CRACK IN THE FUEL PUMP CAUSING LEAKING OF GASOLINE. THIS IS VERY ALARMING AS IT IS A FIRE HAZARD. THE COST TO FIX WAS APPROXIMATELY $1100.00. *TR

LEAKING GAS FROM TOP OF GAS TANK ON TO A HOT MUFFLER. AFTER REVIEWING INFO THERE ARE OVER 300 SIMILAR ISSUES ON THESE CARS! WHY AND GM ISSUED RECALLS ON ALL OTHER MODELS WITH THE SAME FUEL TANK DESIGNS? PLEASE HELP THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

IN JUNE OF 2012, THE VEHICLE DID NOT START PROPERLY, IT HAD A LONG CRANK. THEN I STARTED NOTICING A FUEL SMELL IN MY GARAGE AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. THE ODOR GOT WORSE AND WAS APPARENT WHEN JUST SITTING. I HAD THE VEHICLE INSPECTED, DUE THE STRONG ODOR. THE GAS TANK WAS DROPPED AND IT WAS DETERMINED THE PLASTIC PART ON THE FUEL PUMP WAS CRACKED. THE EXACT REPLACEMENT PART WAS UNAVAILBLE AT THIS TIME; DUE TO A PROBLEM WITH THE PART. SO THE DEALERSHIP SOLD MY MECHANIC A MORE EXPENSIVE PUMP, ONE THAT INCLUDED REPAIR FOR THE ODOMETER. AT LEAST THAT IS WHAT WAS EXPLAINED TO ME.THE TOTAL COST WAS $988.88. I HAVE THE CRACKED FUEL PUMP IN MY GARAGE. I HAVE CONTACTED GM TO NO AVAIL. *TR

I LIVE IN ARIZONA, AND I WAS DRIVING AND THERE WAS A VERY POTENT SMELL OF GASOLINE COMING THROUGH MY A/C VENTS, VERY HAZARDOUS TO MY HEALTH, ALSO COULD BE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. I DID NOTICED THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE IN THE 2007 PONTIAC G5. *TR

THERE IS A FUEL LEAK THAT IS COMING FROM THE TANK AND FLOWS ONTO THE REAR EXHAUST SYSTEM. AFTER REMOVAL OF THE TANK, AFTER GM CARE SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO, OUT OF WARRANTY. I FOUND OUT THAT IT MIGH BE LEAKING FROM THE ORING BETWEEN THE FUEL PUMP AND TANK. WHILE WAITING FOR THE PARTS TO ARRIVE LATER THIS WEEK (ORING AND LOCKING CAM), I DID SOME RESEARCH AND SEEN NUMEROUS POST AND A HIGH FAILURE RATE OF A PLASTIC GAS THAT SUPPLIES FUEL TO THE ENGINE, SO I AM ASSUMING THAT THIS COULD BE CULPRIT AND A DANGEROUS AND EXPENSIVE PROBLEM SINCE TO REPLACE THIS YOU HAVE TO REPLACE THE COMPLETE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED TO GM AS A POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD AND A RECALL IN PLACE TO SAVE LIVES!! *TR

6/11/12; WHEN STARTING AUTO, LONG CRANK, GOT BATTERY REPLACED, BUT NOTICED A FUEL SMELL IN THE GARAGE. ON 7/12/2012, AFTER CONTINUED PROBLEMS WITH STARTING CAR AND INCREASED FUEL SMELL IN GARAGE, VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HILLES UNION 76 AND ALLOWED TO SIT OVERNIGHT. IT WOULD ONLY HAVE CRANK PROBLEM AFTER SITTING FOR AWHILE. MECHANIC NOTICED SEVERE FUEL ODOR AND REQUESTED TO DROP GAS TANK DUE TO POSSIBLE FUEL LEAK. THE FUEL PUMP WAS FOUND TO HAVE A CRACK IN THE PLASTIC PIECE IN THE CENTER. HILLES UNION 76 ORDERED THE FUEL PUMP FROM JESSUP MOTORS IN CATHEDRAL CITY, CA. PART WAS REPLACED. THE COST OF REPLACEMENT & LABOR WAS $988.00. I WENT TO THE INDIO GM AND SPOKE WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER ABOUT THIS PART. IT MADE NO SENSE THAT A FUEL PUMP WOULD GO OUT ON A VEHICLE WITH 45,000 MILES ON IT! HE TOLD ME, "IT WAS NORMAL". I DID NOT BELIEVE THAT AND HAD FULL INTENTION OF CONTACTING GM WITH THIS COMPLAINT. SO I KEPT THE CRACKED FUEL PUMP!TO THIS POINT GM IS NOT AGREEING THAT THIS VEHICLE IS PART OF RECALL, IT CLEARLY IS. *TR

MY SON NOTICED A SMELL OF GAS COMING FROM HIS CAR. WHEN I WENT OUT TO LOOK AT IT I COULD SMELL IT ALSO. IT SEEMED TO BE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE CAR BUT I COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING AND IT SEEMED TO DISSIPATE AS TIME WENT ON THAT EVENING. I JUST ASSUMED IT CAME FROM THE FILLER TUBE SOMEHOW MAYBE AFTER A TURN. THE NEXT DAY WHEN HE GOT HOME FROM WORK I WAS IN THE DRIVEWAY WHEN HE PULLED IN AND THE SMELL WAS VERY STRONG AND STILL SEEMED TO BE COMING FROM THE REAR AREA OF THE CAR. WE JACKED BOTH SIDES OF THE REAR UP AND THAT?S WHEN WE SAW GAS RUN OUT OF THE PROTECTIVE PLATE THAT SURROUNDS THE BOTTOM OF THE GAS TANK. FURTHER INSPECTION REVEALED THE LEAK WAS COMING FROM A PLASTIC ELBOW THAT COMES OUT OF THE FUEL PUMP THAT FEEDS GAS TO THE ENGINE. YOU COULD ALSO SEE WHERE THE FUEL HAD BEEN SPRAYING ON THE MUFFLER WHICH IS LOCATED BEHIND THE GAS TANK ASSEMBLY. THIS VERY EASILY COULD A SERIOUS FIRE IF WE HAD NOT LOCATED THIS AS QUICKLY AS WE DID. I AM TO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS THE SAME FUEL PUMP DESIGN AS THE 2007 G5 THAT HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH THAT PLASTIC ELBOW CRACKING AND SPRAYING FUEL. THIS SHOULD BE AN IMMEDIATE SAFETY RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. *TR

WHY WAS THE 2007 G6 NOT INCLUDED IN THE NEW RECALL BY GM FOR SEVERAL MODELS INCLUDING THE 2007 PONTIAC G5 FOR A SERIOUS FUEL LEAK PROBLEM? THE G6 HAS THE SAME FUEL TANK AND LINE THAT IS CRACKING IN THE VEHICLES RECALLED AND OUR G6 SMELLS OF GASOLINE SO BAD WE CANNOT PARK IT IN THE GARAGE AND FUEL CONSTANTLY IS DRIPPING FROM THE TANK. SEVERAL FORUMS LIST THIS PROBLEM AND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS WITH THE G6 YEAR 2007 AND UP. HERE IS JUST ONE: HTTP://WWW.G6OWNERSCLUB.COM/FORUM/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=12371 JUST DO A SEARCH FOR "FORUM G6 GAS TANK LEAK" AND YOU WILL FIND MORE COMPLAINTS. LOCAL DEALER WANTS OVER $2000 TO REPLACE THE TANK, PUMP AND LINES AND WE READ THAT IT DOES NOT CURE THE PROBLEM WHEN OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS WORK PERFORMED. (DEALER INSTALLS THE SAME PLASTIC LINE THAT WILL CRACK IN THE HEAT AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX JUST THE LINE, STATING THE ENTIRE TANK MUST BE REPLACED) JUST WHAT ARE WE TO DO WHEN GM DOES NOT FIX A KNOW DANGEROUS PROBLEM? AND JUST WHY DID THIS RECALL NOT INCLUDE THE G6? AND WHY DOES OUR FABULOUS GOVERNMENT WHO BAILED OUT GM NOT MAKE THEM FIX KNOW DEFECTS? *TR

CAR'S KEY FELT STUCK ONE DAY AND MADE THE CARD DO A "HARD" START WHERE THE IGNITION DIDN'T KICK OVER RIGHT AWAY. NOTICED RIGHT AFTER IGNITION PROBLEM THERE WAS A STRONG SMELL OF GAS ONCE CAR WAS SHUT OFF. SMELL CONTINUED TO JUST GET STRONGER AND STRONGER OVER THE COURSE OF A WEEK. THERE IS NOW AN INTOXICATING SMELL OF GAS FUMES THAT SURROUND THE CAR WHEN PARKED. CANNOT PARK IN GARAGE ANY LONGER IN FEAR THAT THE FUMES WILL IGNITE WITH OUR GAS WATER HEATER WHICH IS ALSO HOUSED IN THE GARAGE. THREE YEAR OLD DAUGHTER FEELS LIGHT HEADED AND NAUSEATED WHEN GETTING IN THE CAR NOW, AND CAN NO LONGER USE IT ALTHOUGH IT IS OUR ONLY VEHICLE. IT GOES INTO THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW DESPITE NOT HAVING ANY WARRANTY. ALTHOUGH IT HAS NOT BEEN CONFIRMED YET, I AM SURE IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM OTHERS ARE HAVING WITH THE CRACKED PIECE ABOVE THE GAS TANK. I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THIS HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL YET, BECAUSE THIS IS A SERIOUS MATTER. I WOULD IMAGINE IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE'S G6 IGNITES AND CAUSES A HUGE FIRE AND EXPLOSION! *TR
