I BROUGHT IT TO A GARAGE AND A TON OF CODES CAME UP THEY CLEARED IT AND TOLD ME NOT TO WORRIE ABOUT IT BUT IT SMELT WEIRD AND I NEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG.I BELIEVE IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE TRANSMISSION CABLES AND A THROTTLE SENSOR BECAUSE IT WAS ACTING LIKE IT WANTED TO GO FAST N THE THROTTLE WOULD ACCELERATE WHEN I DIDNT PUSH MORE ON THE PADDLE KINDA LIKE IT WAS STUCK IN CRUISE CONTROL BUT EVEN WHEN I PRESS THE BRAKES IT STILL REV.

THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER IN MY CAR NEEDS REPLACEMENT. I HAVE BEEN THE ONLY OWNER AND HAVE MAINTAINED IT PROPERLY. THE CAR HAS A LITTLE UNDER 67,000 MILES AND OCCASIONALLY LOSES POWER. IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AS THIS HAPPENS SPORADICALLY. I CAN NOT WITH 100 PERCENT CERTAINTY MERGE INTO TRAFFIC KNOWING THAT IT WILL ACCELERATE FAST ENOUGH. I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC RUN ON THE CAR AND WAS TOLD THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER IS THE ISSUE AND NEEDS REPLACEMENT. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP IN EL PASO, TX AND THEY CLAIM THAT SOME PONTIAC G6 MODELS (BASED ON VIN) HAVE BEEN RECALLED, BUT THAT MINE IS NOT ONE OF THEM. I HAVE LOOKED UP RELATED CASES AND DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY MY CAR'S VIN IS NOT INCLUDED. I LOVE MY CAR AND IT HAS SERVED ME WELL, UNTIL NOW. I HOPE THAT SOMEONE, ANYONE WITH SOME AUTHORITY IS READING THIS. I HOPE THAT THAT PERSON DOES SOME INVESTIGATING AND REALIZES THAT THIS ISSUE IS NOT ISOLATED AND SHOULD BE AN OPEN RECALL. IT IS MOST DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE. I DO NOT FEEL THAT IT IS SAFE TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE, BUT AM FORCED TO AS I CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE IT FIXED. THE ACCELERATION ISSUE HAS HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY AND ON CITY STREETS. I HAVE STOPPED USING THE FREEWAY FOR SAFETY REASONS. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE.

TO SUM IT UP STARTED GETTING "ENGINE POWER REDUCED" MESSAGE FROM MESSAGE CENTER IN VEHICLE. SHORTLY AFTERWARD THE VEHICLE WILL BEGIN FLASHING THE TRACTION CONTROL OFF LIGHT AND SHIFTING HARD. NOW THE VEHICLE STILL SHIFTS HARD WITH THE TWO ABOVE MESSAGES AND IS ALSO STALLING OUT WHEN "ENGINE POWER REDUCED" MESSAGE APPEARS. MANY TIMES AFTER THIS THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL. HAVE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD, CUT THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN CONTINUE DRIVING. PROBLEM STARTED INTERMITTENT AND NOW HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE TIME I DRIVE THE VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD IT STALL OUT ON THE HIGHWAY GOING OVER 50 MPH, VERY DANGEROUS WAS ALMOST HIT. VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE USED LOST SERVICE CENTER THREE TIMES, NO LUCK ON FINDING PROBLEM OR REPAIR. CAR HAS BEEN WITH MY LOCAL GM CERTIFIED DEALERSHIP FOR 3 DAYS AND STILL NO PROPER DIAGNOSIS PROBLEM OR REPAIR. HAS SENSE RECEIVED THE TWO RECALL LETTERS BCM/TRANSMISSION BUT DEALERSHIP IS RELUCTANT TO REPAIR BECAUSE THEY SAID GM MAY NOT PAY FOR TIME AND PARTS. WORSE CAR PURCHASE I HAVE EVERY MADE. *TR

I HAVE A 2008 PONTIAC G6. I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AND SUDDENLY THE TRACTION CONTROL AND THE STABILITRAK SYSTEM GETS DISABLED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I WASN'T ABLE TO USE THE CRUISE CONTROL FEATURE ANYMORE ADDING MORE PROBLEMS. IT IS A VERY ANNOYING THING AS IT MAKES THE WARNING NOISE (AS THE TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITRAK SYSTEM GET DISABLED) EVERY TIME I DRIVE MY CAR. MOREOVER, I AM VERY WORRIED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE CAR SINCE I DON'T HAVE ANY TRACTION/STABILITY CONTROL. I WHEN I DID SOME RESEARCH, I FOUND OUT THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM I AM HAVING WITH MY CAR LISTED IN THE RECALL (ALL 2005-2010 PONTIAC G6). GM'S NUMBER FOR THE RECALL IS 13036. IT HAS BEEN TWO MONTHS SINCE THE RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED, BUT I HAVEN'T RECEIVED MY RECALL NOTICE YET. DESPERATELY HOPING THAT THE RECALL NOTICE COMES UP SOON SO I CAN GET MY CAR FIXED AND DRIVE IT SAFELY. *TR

Mileage: 74,000

DRIVING AND SUDDENLY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, ACROSS THE RADIO IT SAID ENGINE POWER REDUCED AND SERVICE TRACTION. IT WOULD BARELY ACCELERATE. IT HAS DONE THIS TWICE IN A WEEK. THEN AFTER A WHILE THE ENGINE LIGHT GOES OFF AND IT WILL SEEM OK. AT STOPS THOUGH, THE CAR SEEMS VERY SHAKY, FEELING LIKE IT WILL STALL, BUT HASN'T YET!!! *TR

Mileage: 70,000

THE BRAKE PEDAL PRESSURE SWITCH MALFUNCTIONS CAUSING THE BRAKE LIGHTS TO ILLUMINATE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS NOT DEPRESSED (I.E. WHILE BOTH PARKED AND DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD). THIS DISABLES THE CRUISE CONTROL MECHANISM. THE BRAKE LIGHTS, WHICH ARE CONSTANTLY ILLUMINATED, THEN TURN OFF WHEN THE BRAKES ARE PRESSED (UNDER LIGHT TO NORMAL BRAKING). THE BRAKE LIGHTS DO ILLUMINATE AGAIN IF YOU CONTINUE TO APPLY INCREASED PRESSURE TO THE PEDAL, HOWEVER NOT UNTIL CONSIDERABLY HEAVY BRAKING CONDITIONS EXIST (NEARLY ACTIVATING THE ABS). UNDER MOST BRAKING SITUATIONS (I.E. APPLYING MODERATE PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES) THIS MALFUNCTION EFFECTIVELY CAUSES THE BRAKE LIGHTS TO WORK THE OPPOSITE OF HOW THEIR INDENTED. *TR

Mileage: 67,000

FOLLOWING MY SON TO SCHOOL NOTICED BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ON WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN HE CAME TO A STOP THE BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OFF. ANOTHER INCIDENT DRIVING ON I-69 WITH CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED TRAVELING 70 MPH PASSING A TRUCK CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGED. CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT ENGAGE AGAIN FOR ABOUT 50 MILES. ANOTHER INCIDENT OF DRIVING WITH BRAKE LIGHTS ON AND STOPPING WITHOUT LIGHTS BEING ILLUMINATED, CAR NEXT TO US LET US KNOW. *TR

Mileage: 59,000

BOTH OF MY HEAD LIGHTS HAVE GONE OUT. MY FIRST HEADLIGHT WENT OUT AND THE DEALER STATED THAT MY WIRES HAD CORRODED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NOW TWO MONTHS LATER MY OTHER HEADLIGHT IS OUT AND I BELIEVE IT IS THE SAME ISSUE. ALSO I HAVE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE WITH BOTH CRUISE CONTROL AND MY TURN SIGNALS AS BOTH HAVE NOT BEEN REACTING TO THE COMMAND. I BELIEVE THAT IT IS RELATED TO THE MAY 14, 2014 RECALL REGARDING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL. I SPENT OVER $500 TO REPLACE THE FIRST HEADLIGHT. THE OTHER ITEMS HAVE NOT BEEN REPLACED YET, BUT I KNOW THEY WILL NEED TO BE AND THE COST WILL BE EXORBITANT. *TR

IT APPEARS THERE ARE FOUR (4) RECALLS ON THIS MODEL/MAKE/YEAR - WE HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A SINGLE RECALL NOTIFICATION. NHTSA CAMPAIGN # 14V252000, #14V224000, 14V153000, 12V460000. I WOULD APPRECIATED FURTHER INFORMATION IN CORRECTING IDENTIFIED RECALLS. *TR

CAR ACCELERATES WITHOUT PUSHING ON THE GAS, OR WHEN I AM BREAKING CAR SPEEDS UP. A CHIME SOUNDS IN THE CAR AND I CAN'T FIND ANYWHERE IN THE MANUAL ABOUT SOUNDS OTHER THAN THE TYPICAL SEATBELT TO LOW FUEL. VERY SCARY! *TR

Mileage: 75,000

BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. BRAKE LIGHTS REMAIN ON WHILE DRIVING & TURN OFF WHILE BRAKING. *TR

Mileage: 75

THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, I WAS DRIVING ON THE TURNPIKE AT 65MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON. I DIDN'T REALIZE IT HAD DISENGAGED UNTIL ALL THE CARS STARTED PASSING ME AND THE CARS BEHIND ME WERE COMING UP FAST ON MY REAR. I GOT BACK UP TO SPEED BUT THE CRUISE WOULD NOT ENGAGE. DROVE 300 MILES WITHOUT CRUISE. HAPPENS ALL THE TIME NOW. I HAVE 74000 MILES ON THE CAR NOW. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AT THE TIME AND THEY NEW OF THE PROBLEM BUT HAD NO FIX. *TR

Mileage: 46,000

BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON WHEN PEDAL IS NOT DEPRESSED. BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT COME ON WHEN PEDAL IS DEPRESSED. CRUISE CONTROL IS DEACTIVATED SPONTANEOUSLY. IT OCCURS INTERMITTENTLY, SOMETIMES NOT HAPPENING FOR WEEKS OR JUST DAYS. BUT CONTINUOUSLY FOR THE DURATION OF MY TRIP, SHOULD IT BE HAPPENING. *TR

Mileage: 45,000

THE CAR'S BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH RANDOMLY ACTIVATES AND CAUSES THE BRAKE LIGHTS TO ILLUMINATE AND THE CRUISE CONTROL TO TURN OFF. IF YOU TAP ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE SWITCH MAY WORK CORRECTLY FOR A FEW SECONDS OR HOURS UNTIL IT FAILS AGAIN. THIS IS A POTENTIALLY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE CAR BEHIND ME WILL NOT SEE MY BRAKE LIGHTS ACTIVATE WHEN I TRY TO STOP MY CAR BECAUSE MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ALREADY ILLUMINATED BEFORE I APPLIED THE BRAKES. THUS, IT IS LIKELY I WILL GET REAR-ENDED OR AT LEAST CURSED BY THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE THAT IS FOLLOWING ME. THIS IS ALSO A NUISANCE BECAUSE I CANNOT USE MY CRUISE CONTROL ON MANY OCCASIONS AND IT PREMATURELY WEARS OUT MY BRAKE LAMPS. *TR

Mileage: 57,000

MY BRAKE LAMPS R COMING ON WHEN IM NOT APPLYING THEM WHILE DRIVING & N PARK, MY CRUISE CONTROL COMES ON WHEN IT WANTS, IN IF ITS ACTIVATED DISENGAGES ITSELF AT RANDOM, I ALMOST CAUSED N ACCIDENT AND WAS PULLED OVER BY A NY STATE TROOPER WHO HAPPEN TO GIVE ME A BREAK, Y IS THIS NOT A RECALL DUE TO A SEARCHER THE ISSUE IN SEVERAL R COMPLAINING THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

Mileage: 72,000

WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I TRIED TO SET MY CRUISE CONTROL. IT WOULD NOT ENGAGE. I'D NOTICED THIS BEFORE BUT THOUGHT LITTLE OF IT UNTIL SOMEONE ALMOST REAR ENDED ME. LUCKILY THE DRIVER BEHIND ME WAS NICE ENOUGH TO PULL UP BESIDE ME AND INFORM ME STATING, "HEY, YOU KNOW YOUR BRAKE LIGHTS AREN'T WORKING. ITS LIKE WHILE YOU'RE DRIVING THEY'RE ON BUT WHEN YOU BRAKE, THEY TURN OFF, IT'S KINDA WEIRD." ONCE GETTING TO MY DESTINATION, I HAD ONE OF MY FRIENDS TRAIL BEHIND ME AND OBSERVE THIS ISSUE AND IT WAS INDEED TRUE. LATER THAT NIGHT, I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND MANY POSTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND DECIDED TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS MALFUNCTION. I COULD HAVE LOST MY LIFE OR CAUSED SOMEONE THEIRS. *TR

Mileage: 58,000

STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH 2008 PONTIAC G6 A YEAR AGO, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL MESSAGE STARTED COMING ON, CRUISE CONTROL WON'T WORK, AND BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON WHEN DRIVING BUT GO OFF WHEN I PRESS THE BRAKES. I HAVE HAD THE BODY CONTROL MODULE WORKED ON TWICE, THE BRAKE PEDAL POSITION SENSOR HAS BEEN REPLACED, PUT ON THE COMPUTER SEVERAL TIMES TRYING TO FIND THE PROBLEM. NOTHING HAS WORKED AND ALL THE SERVICE AND REPAIR COSTS HAVE COME OUT OF MY POCKET. I HAVE BEEN PULLED OVER BY THE POLICE AND STATE TROOPERS, AND HAVE HAD CLOSE CALLS BECAUSE OF THE BRAKE LIGHTS MALFUNCTIONING. I JUST HAD THE BRAKE PEDAL POSITION SENSOR REPLACED 2 WEEKS AGO AND I GOT PULLED OVER AGAIN TONIGHT BECAUSE MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ON BUT WENT OUT WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS IS DANGEROUS, I DRIVE TO WORK EVERYDAY AN HOUR AND A HALF EACH WAY TO A CITY, AND I AM SCARED EVERYDAY THAT SOMEONE WILL HIT ME BECAUSE THEY WON'T KNOW I AM BRAKING. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND THE FACT THAT THE MANUFACTURE HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING TO FIX THIS ISSUE IS RISKING MY LIFE, OTHER DRIVER'S LIVES, AND I CAN'T AFFORD THE CONSTANT SERVICE BILLS FOR REPAIRS THAT DON'T FIX THE PROBLEM.

Mileage: 50,000

BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON ALL THE TIME. WHEN FIRST PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL THEY GO OFF BUT THEN GO BACK ON AFTER 3-5SECS. PUSHING THE BRAKE PEDAL FURTHER SO THE BRAKES ACTUALLY APPLY, THE LIGHTS RE-ILLUMINATE. CRUISE CONTROL ALSO WORKS INTERMITTENTLY WHICH FROM OTHER POSTS SEEMS TO BE CAUSED BY THIS ISSUE. MY REAR DRIVERS SIDE DOOR LOCK JUST STARTED WORKING INTERMITTENTLY AS WELL - COULD BE UNRELATED HOWEVER IT ALL SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING AT ONCE SO SOMETHING ELECTRICAL IS GOING BAD. LOOKS LIKE A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE ALSO EXPERIENCING THESE ISSUES. *TR

Mileage: 89,000

THE BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON ALL THE TIME AND WHEN FIRST PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL THEY GO OFF AND AFTER PUSHING THE BRAKE PEDAL FURTHER THEY WILL RE-ILLUMINATE. BECAUSE OF THEM ALWAYS BEING ON THE CRUISE CONTROL ALSO WILL NOT WORK. *TR

I HAVE A 2008 PONTIAC G6. MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE WORKING IN THE REVERSE. WHEN NOT DEPRESSED..THEY WERE ON. WHEN BRAKE WAS APPLIED..THEY WERE OFF. MY CRUISE CONTROL ALSO DID NOT WORK. I TOOK MY CAR TO MY MECHANIC AND HE REPLACED THE BMC AND RESET THE COMPUTER. THIS COST ME $412.00. IT IS NOW JULY OF 2013 AND THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING AGAIN. I RESEARCHED IT ON THE COMPUTER AND HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS A POSSIBLE RECALL. CAN I TAKE MY CAR TO A GM DEALERSHIP AND GET IT REPAIRED AT NO CHARGE? *TR

Mileage: 70,000

CRUISE CONTROL STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY FOLLOWING 8 MONTHS OF INTERMITTENT OUTAGES. STOPPED BY STATE POLICE OFFICER AND INFORMED OF BRAKE LIGHT STAYING ON. CONFIRMED BREAK LIGHTS WERE STAYING ON WHENEVER BRAKES WERE NOT BEING APLLIED. WHEN BRAKE LIGHTS WERE APPLIED, THE BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD TURN OFF FOR APPROX. 5 SECONDS. FIXED BY APPLYING DIELECTRIC GREASE TO THE ELECTRICAL CONTACTS OF THE MAIN BODY COMPUTER. *TR

I WAS DRIVING AND TRYING TO SET THE CRUISE CONTROL AND THE CRUISE WOULD NOT SET. I WAS ALSO BEING FOLLOWED BY MY WIFE AT THE TIME. WHEN WE ARRIVED AT OUR DESTINATION, SHE ASKED ME IF I WAS RIDING THE BRAKES. I TOLD HER I WAS NOT AND SHE INFORMED ME THAT MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ON ALL THE TIME, EXCEPT FOR AFTER MAKING A STOP & RESTARTING THEY WOULD GO OUT BRIEFLY AND COME BACK ON AND STAY ON. SINCE THAT DAY THIS HAS HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY SEVERAL TIMES AND THIS CONCERNS ME VERY MUCH AS I HAVE A 16 YEAR OLD SON WHO DRIVES THIS VEHICLE TO WORK AND YOU NEVER KNOW IF THE LIGHTS ARE STUCK ON UNLESS YOU TRY TO ENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL. *TR

Mileage: 75,548

BRAKE LIGHTS SELF-ILLUMINATE, CANCELING CRUISE CONTROL FUNCTIONS AS A RESULT.

CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGES AND BRAKE LIGHTS ILLUMINATE WITHOUT PRESSING BRAKE PEDAL AND TURN OFF WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS PRESSED. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND FOUND REPORTS OF THE SAME PROBLEMS ON THE SATURN AURA AND CHEVY MALIBU OF THE SAME YEAR, AND THE PONTIAC G6 OF 2005. *TR

Mileage: 80,000

THE BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON WHEN THE PEDAL IS NOT DEPRESSED AND GO OFF WHEN IT IS DEPRESSED. THIS CONDITION ALSO AFFECTS THE CRUISE CONTROL. THIS ONLY HAPPENS OCCASIONALLY, BUT IT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING MORE SINCE THE FIRST OCCURRENCE. THIS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND THERE IS NO WAY OF KNOWING WHEN IT IS OCCURRING. *TR

BRAKE LIGHTS ENGAGE AND CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGES AT VARYING TIMES. BRAKE LIGHTS ENGAGES WHEN ACCELERATING. UPON MINOR DEPRESSION OF THE BRAKE PEDAL, BRAKE LIGHTS SHUT OFF, THEN RE-ENGAGE AS THE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED FURTHER. BRAKE LIGHTS ENGAGE AT BOTH HIGH AND LOW SPEEDS, AS WELL AS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED AND RUNNING. *TR

Mileage: 27,650

WHEN YOU SET THE CRUISE OR ARE JUST DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY OR IN TOWN THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL COME ON WITHOUT TAPPING THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS WILL SHUT THE CRUISE OFF AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL STAY ON FOR AN EXTEND PERIOD OF TIME. NOT SAFE AT ALL! *TR

FIRST THE REAR DOOR ACTUATOR WORKED 50% OF TIME.THEN 0% . CRUISE WORKED INTERMITTENT. BRAKE LIGHTS ON WHILE DRIVING .HENCE STUCK ON. PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG MODULE FAULTY. INOPT. IN THAT ORDER. AL HAVE TO BE RELATED AND ITS A KNOWN PROBLEM IN PONTIAC. AND GM WANTS 730 TO REPLACE MODULE 232 FOR DOOR ACTUATOR.ITS B.S RECALL 2008 G6. THEY HAVE RECALLED G8 FOR SIMILAR PROBLEMS. *TR

Mileage: 30,000

I NOTICED THE CRUISE CONTROL GOING OFF ON ITS OWN AGENDA. I WAS TOLD BY ANOTHER DRIVER THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS WERE COMING ON WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. HAD A DEALER LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM AND THE SWITCH WAS REPLACED. STILL DOES IT WITH 56K MILES ON IT. I AM A MECHANIC AND WHAT A BAD DESIGN. GM NEEDS TO STEP UP A GET THE SWITCH REDESIGNED BEFORE SOMEBODY GETS SERIOUSLY HURT. *TR

Mileage: 27,345

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER WAS TRAVELING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BECAME STUCK IN OPEN THROTTLE, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE TO 107 MPH. THE VEHICLE ROLLED OVER A DIP IN THE ROAD, LEFT THE ROAD, WENT AIRBORNE, ROLLED OVER FIVE TIMES AND LANDED UPSIDE DOWN ON ITS ROOF. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE DRIVER WAS FATALLY INJURED. THE MANUFACTURER AS WELL AS WITH THE HIGHWAY PATROL WAS INVESTIGATING THE CRASH. THE MILEAGE AND VIN WERE UNAVAILABLE.

MY 2008 PONTIAC G6'S BRAKE LIGHTS ARE INTERMITTENTLY STAYING ON WHEN I AM NOT PUSHING ON THE BRAKE AND THEN THEY GOES OFF WHEN I AM PUSHING ON THE BRAKE. I SEE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2005 AND 2006 MODELS BUT NOT THE 2008. THIS IS A DANGER TO ME. I BELIEVE THAT THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND/OR THAT GM SHOULD PAY TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM FIXED BEFORE IT CAUSES A WRECK. ALSO MY CRUISE CONTROL WORKS ONLY PART OF THE TIME, WHICH MAY BE RELATED. *TR

BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON WITHOUT THE BRAKES BEING ENGAGED. WHEN YOU ENGAGE THE BRAKES THE LIGHTS GO OFF. THE CRUISE CONTROL IS EFFECTED BY THIS ALSO. WE HAVE PUT DIELECTRIC LUBE ON THE SWITCH AS INSTRUCTED BY A CERTIFIED GM TECH. THIS WORKS FOR A WEEK OR LESS. MY RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THE 2005/2006 MODELS HAD A RECALL ISSUED FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. *JS

I OWN A 2008 PONTIAC G6, I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH MY BRAKE LIGHTS. THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL COME ON AUTOMATICALLY WITHOUT TOUCHING THE BRAKES. WHEN I STEP ON THE BRAKE, THEY SHUT OFF ONLY TO COME BACK ON IN A SHORT TIME. THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ALSO AFFECTED BY THIS. CRUISE CONTROL WILL SHUT OFF WHEN BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON. I HAD CHANGED THE BRAKE SWITCH THINKING THIS WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. IT DID NOTHING. I THEN BROUGHT IT IN AND HAD IT CALIBRATED. THIS SEEMED TO FIX IT, HOWEVER, NOW THE BRAKE LIGHTS CONTINUALLY STAY ON WITHOUT TOUCHING THE BRAKE. MY TRACTION LIGHT ALSO STAYS ON AND WILL NOT SHUT OFF WHEN PRESSING THE TRACTION BUTTON. I STRONGLY SUGGEST SOMETHING BE DONE BY GM TO HELP WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE READ MANY STORIES LIKE MY OWN ABOUT THE SAME THING AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE IN THAT DRIVERS BEHIND YOU MAY NOT BE AWARE THAT YOU ARE BRAKING AND COULD CAUSE A CRASH. *TR

MY 2008 PONTIAC G6 CRUISE CONTROL WORKS INTERMITTENTLY FOR THE PAST YEAR. I USE IT WHEN IT WORKS AND KEEP IT OFF WHEN IT DOES NOT WANT TO ENGAGE. IN THE PAST MONTHS, MY BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN THE BRAKES ARE NOT ENGAGED; ONCE I ENGAGE THE BRAKES, THE LIGHTS GO OUT COMPLETELY. THIS ISSUE IS INTERMITTENT AS WELL. *TR
