PURCHASED NEW PONTIAC G6 2006 ON JUNE 2, 2007, 72 MILES. JULY 2007, PROBLEMS WITH CRUISE CONTROL. CONTACTED RELIABLE PONTIAC WITH PROBLEM. NEVER RETURNED MY CALL. TOOK IT TO THOMPSON'S PLACERVILLE, ACTED LIKE I DID NOT KNOW HOW TO WORK A CRUISE CONTROL. CONTINUED TO HAVE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE. SPOKE WITH DAVID O'KEEF, PONTIAC CUSTOMER SERVICE (866) 790-5600, EXT 31952, REGARDING LEMON LAW.

PULLED OVER BY CHP SEVERAL TIMES FOR BRAKE LIGHTS BEING ON, BUT I WAS NOT BRAKING, OFFICER STATED VEHICLE TOO DANGEROUS TO BE ON ROAD. ON 9/6/11, A FRIEND REFERRED ME TO MOTORTREND RECALLS. RECALL DATE FOR AIR BAGS WAS 10/31/2006 AND EXTERIOR LIGHTING: BRAKE LIGHTS 1/30/2009. STEERING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED IN 2009. I WAS NEVER CONTACTED BY GM OR RELIABLE PONTIAC. VEHICLE WAS A COSTLY, SAFETY HAZARD THROUGH 12/14/11. STILL HAVE ISSUES. EXTREMELY INCONVENIENT TO KEEP TAKING IT TO THE DEALER. NOW I KNOW WHY I WAS BEING FLIPPED OFF BY OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD, THEY THOUGHT I WAS "BRAKE" CHECKING THEM. *JS
