NHTSA Complaint #10619561 — 2006 PONTIAC G6

I WENT TO GET MY VEHICLE INSPECTED AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY. FIRST, THEY WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. THEN, THEY WOULD NOT TURN ON. YOU CAN PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL AND SOMETIMES IT WILL TURN THE BRAKE LIGHTS ON AND THEY STAY ON, OR IT WILL TURN THEM OFF AND THEY WILL STAY OFF. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO TWO DIFFERENT AUTOMOTIVE SHOPS, INCLUDING THE ONE I PURCHASED IT FROM AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. GM SENT ME A RECALL NOTICE FOR THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. HOWEVER, IT IS NOT LISTED ON THE WEBSITE. SO I CALLED GM AND THEY STATED I HAD TO PAY TO HAVE A MANUFACTURER DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AS IT WAS NOT A "LEGIT RECALL AS OF YET" AND THAT IF IT WAS FOUND TO BE PART OF THE RECALL THE COST WOULD BE REIMBURSED. I EXPLAINED TO THE GM AGENT ON THE PHONE THAT IT HAS BEEN LOOKED AT AND I CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AGAIN. SHE STATED I NEEDED TO WAIT FOR A "LEGIT RECALL" TO BE MAILED TO ME. THE LETTER I RECEIVED FROM GM PREVIOUSLY IS THE SAME TYPE OF LETTER I HAD RECEIVED ABOUT THE OTHER TWO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE THAT ARE LISTED ON THE WEBSITE AND THERE ARE NO PARTS FOR. THE MALFUNCTIONING OF MY BRAKE LIGHTS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND COULD CAUSE A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT. *TR
