2010 PONTIAC G6 Exterior Lighting Problems

IT STARTED WITH THE HEADLIGHT GOING OUT AGAIN AND AGAIN EVEN AFTER NEW BULBS. THIS CAR SEEMS TO HAVE MAJOR ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WHICH A CHAIN OF EVENTS HAS TURNED INTO STEERING PROBLEMS AND THE WHOLE DASHBOARD CLICKING AND FLASHING TO THE RYTHYM OF THE CLICK. WHEN THE DASHBOARD GOES BLACK THE WHEEL WONT TURN AT ALL. I KNOW OF SOMEONE WITH THE SAME CAR WHO HAS THE SAME HEADLIGHT PROBLEM. EASY TO GET PULLED OVER FOR THAT ONE. CALLED PONTIAC THEY WOULDN'T DO ANYTHING. WILL NEVER BUY A PONTIAC AGAIN.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM A DEALERSHIP CALLED DRIVE NOW IN LEBANON TENNESSEE. ABOUT 2 MILES AFTER SIGNING AND TRADING MY VEHICLE FOR THIS ONE THE ESC, TC OFF, CHECK ENGINE, LOW TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR LIGHTS ALL CAME ON ON THE DASH. I TOOK IT TO THEM 4 DIFFERENT TIMES NOW AND THEY STATED TO ME IT'S AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AND THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE FIXED IT!! A MONTH LATER IT ALL BEGAN AGAIN. IT STARTS WITH THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT GOING OUT THEN THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT GOES OUT AND THEN ALL THE LIGHTS COME BACK ON AGAIN. THIS TIME HOWEVER ONCE I REPLACED THE LIGHT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE I NOTICED IT HAD MELTED INSIDE THE WIRES. I DRIVE HOME AND SEEN THE CAR WAS SMOKING FROM UNDER THE HOOD AMD THE BATTERY CABLES WERE BLAZING WITH FIRE. LUCKILY I HAD A GALLON OF WATER THAT I PUT THE FIRE OUT WITH. I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE IT AND THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THEY ARE NO LONGER LIABLE TO FIX IT BECAUSE IT WAS ONLY THEIR PROBLEM FOR THE FIRST TWO WEEKS. SO NOW I HAVE A CAR PAYMENT ON A CAR THAT CAUGHT FIRE OVER THEIR ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING. WHAT DO I DO TO GET THIS CORRECTLY FIXED

MY BRAKE LIGHTS WILL OCCASIONALLY TURN ON WHEN MY FOOT ISN'T ON THE BRAKES WHETHR THE CAR IS MOVING OR NOT, AND THEN THEY TURN OFF WHEN I DO PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKES. SOMETIMES IT SEEMS TO BE CAUSED BY APPLYING THE BRAKES HARD OR IF THE ABS ARE NEEDED. CRUISE CONTROL WILL SOMETIMES NOT ENGAGE AT ALL OR WILL SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING.

Mileage: 71,000

MY HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY KEEPS MELTING AND THEN THE HEADLIGHTS (LOW & HIGH BEAM) DO NOT COME ON. I REPLACED THE HEADLIGHTS ABOUT 6X UNTIL I CALLED THE GM DEALERSHIP AND THEY EXPLAINED THIS IS DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL FROM GM FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE. I DID FILE A COMPLAINT WITH GM BUT THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY WILL DO AND I NEED TO PAY TO HAVE IT REPAIRED MYSELF. THE LIGHTS GO OUT COMPLETELY WHEN DRIVING AND THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT. I DON'T WANT TO HURT MYSELF OR ANYONE DUE TO HAVING NO HEADLIGHTS. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON GOOGLE FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE YET GM WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL. PLEASE HELP. I AM ON A BUDGET AND SIMPLY CANT AFFORD TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED WHEN IT SHOULD BE GM'S RESPONSIBILITY.

THEN I CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, HIT A BUMP AND ONE OF THEM GO OUT. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN ONE OR BOTH MAY GO OUT. I HAVE REPLACED THE LIGHTS 2 TIMES SINCE OWNING THE CAR IN DECEMBER 2012.

I NOTICED I HAD A LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHT OUT AROUND CHRISTMAS BUT DIDN'T GET AROUND TO REPLACING IT UNTIL 1/19/15. ONCE IT WAS REPLACED, IT WAS AGAIN NOT WORKING WITHIN LESS THAN 24 HRS AFTER THE REPLACEMENT. I RETURNED IT TO THE SHOP, WHERE THE TECHNICIAN FOUND THAT THE HEADLIGHT HARNESS AROUND THE NEW BULB HAD MELTED. I AM NOW AWAITING PARTS TO HAVE THAT REPLACED. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A CONTINUING PROBLEM WITH GM CARS OF THAT YEAR, AND THAT THEY TEND TO KEEP BLOWING BULBS AND NEEDING HARNESS REPLACEMENTS. *TR

THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL TURN AND STAY ON AS THE CAR IS STARTED FROM COLD OR WARM ENGINE. WHILE DRIVING THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL STAY ON AND DIE AS I PRESS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. MANY CARS HAVE NEARLY REAR ENDED ME AND I'VE RECEIVED MANY COMMENTS FROM PEOPLE DRIVING AROUND ME STATING THE SAME THING I SEE, BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON TILL I HIT THE BRAKES. WHICH CONFUSES THEM AND THEY ALWAYS HAVE TO SCREECH THEY'RE TIRES TO STOP FROM IMPACT (10 INCIDENTS). THIS FAULTY INCIDENT HAPPENED RIGHT BEFORE MY WARRANTY EXPIRES. I TOOK IN TO GM AND THEY COULDN'T ADDRESS NOR BELIEVED ME BECAUSE MY SERVICE ESC AND TRACTION LIGHTS WERE OFF AND IT DIDN'T MIMICK THE SAME. BUT AFTER 36, 000 MILES THIS ISSUE HAPPENED EVERYDAY. UNLESS IT IS 80 DEGREES OUT IT DOESN'T COME ON AS OFTEN MORE LIKE EVERY OTHER START UP. IT IS REALLY UNSAFE TO BE DRIVING THIS CAR ON THE HIGHWAY OR RIGHT BEFORE A HEAVY INTERSECTION. WILL GM FIX THIS ISSUE OR WAIT FOR A BAD DISASTER TO HAPPEN LIKE TOYOTA? THERE ARE PLENTY OF OTHER G6 I SEE ON THE ROAD WITH THE SAME ISSUE SO I KNOW IT IS NOT JUST MINES. IF THIS ISN'T GOING TO BE RECALL, GM HAS LOST ALL RESPECT, AT LEAST WITH TOYOTA THEY ADMITTED TO FAULTY BRAKES AND WENT ALONG TO FIX THEM. WHILE GM FOR YEARS HAVE IGNORE THIS ISSUE. MY FIRST AMERICAN CAR AND MY ONLY BAD EXPERIENCE WITH A VEHICLE. MY NEXT CAR WILL MOST LIKELY NOT BE A GM MADE FAULTY CAR TILL THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN REALIZED AND ADDRESS. *JS

THE LOW-BEAM PASSENGER SIDE HEADLAMP WENT OUT, SO I REPLACED IT HOPING THAT THE ISSUE WAS JUST A BURNT OUT HEADLAMP. HOWEVER, THE SAME HEADLAMP WENT OUT AGAIN 3 MONTHS LATER (APPROXIMATELY 12/15/12). AT THAT TIME I FURTHER INSPECTED THE WIRING TO FIND THAT THE CONNECTOR HAD MELTED CAUSING THE LIGHT TO BURN OUT. AT THIS POINT I HAD THE CONNECTOR REPLACED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. APPROXIMATELY 1 WEEK AGO (APPROX. 9 MONTHS AFTER REPLACING THE CONNECTOR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE) THE LOW-BEAM DRIVER SIDE HEADLAMP WENT OUT. AGAIN, HOPING THAT IT WAS JUST THE BULB, I TOOK IT APART TO REPLACE THE BULB. UNFORTUNATELY, THE CONNECTOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE IS NOW MELTED AS WELL. I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THIS ASAP AS IT IS A POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD. I APPEARS THAT AN OVERWHELMING NUMBER OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE, WITH NOTHING BEING DONE ABOUT IT. I FEAR THAT IT WILL TAKE A CUSTOMER'S CAR CATCHING ON FIRE TO ELICIT ANY TYPE OF RECALL. PLEASE CHECK INTO THIS BEFORE IT BECOMES A SERIOUS ISSUE AND INJURES/KILLS SOMEONE. *JS

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS KEPT GOING OUT ON BOTH SIDES. OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIME AT NIGHT REQUIRING THE CONTINUOUS USE OF HIGH BEAMS. AFTER REPLACING THE BULBS WITH RECOMMENDED WATTAGE 3-4 SEPARATE TIMES OVER A 5 MONTH TIME SPAN TOOK CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP SERVICE FOUND THAT THE BULB CONNECTORS WERE MELTED DUE TO THE TERMINAL BEING SPREAD, AND THE HIGH AMPERAGE REQUIRED TO RUN HEADLIGHT CAUSED HEAT TO BUILD UP AND MELT CONNECTOR. HEADLIGHT CONNECTOR, SOCKET, AND BULBS (4TH SET OF BULBS IN 5 MONTHS) NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. QUESTION QUALITY AND CORRECT ENGINEERING OF ELECTRICAL USED FOR HEADLIGHTS. *TR

DRIVING HOME FROM A LONG WEEKEND IN HIBBING MN, WE ARE DRIVING AT AROUND 10PM AT NIGHT WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY. THE HEADLIGHTS TURNED OFF, STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND BRAKES WERE NOT REACTING AT ALL DUE TO THE VEHICLE NOT BEEN RUNNING. WE WERE BOTH REALLY SCARED AS THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT TURN THE LIGHTS ON EVEN AFTER I MANUALLY TRIED TO TURN THEM ON. CAR ROLLED TO A STOP I SLOWLY APPLIED THE EMERGENCY/PARKING BRAKE TO HELP THE VEHICLE STOP AS I COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING. AFTER 10 MINUTES OF TRYING TO GET THE CAR TO START AGAIN IT DID RESTART. CAR HAD PLENTY OF FUEL, I HAD JUST REPLACED THE BATTERY ROUGHLY 6 MONTHS PRIOR TO THAT HAPPENING. SO I KNOW IT WAS NOT OUT OF FUEL OR A BATTERY ISSUE. I HAVE NOT HAD THE PROBLEM AGAIN BUT IT WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE. *TR

I THOUGHT MY HEADLIGHT BULB WENT OUT AND SO I WENT TO THE CAR DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM REPLACE IT. A FEW MONTHS LATER THE BULB HAS BEEN GOING IN AND OUT FOR THE LAST 9 MONTHS. THE MECHANICS ARE TELLING ME IT'S A WIRE PROBLEM AND WITH THE VEHICLE BEING A 2010 I SHOULDN'T BE HAVING THAT PROBLEM. IT'S NOW SEPT. 28,2012 AND ONCE AGAIN IT HAS GONE OUT...AGAIN. PLUS SINCE I GOT THE CAR I'VE BEEN HEARING RATTLING EITHER IN THE PASSENGER DOOR OR THE DASHBOARD. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE ME BUT I FEEL I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR GM MISTAKES. *TR
