NHTSA Complaint #10692887 — 2006 PONTIAC G6

SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED MY 2006 PONTIAC G6 (IN 2006) IT HAS BEEN FAILING TO START FROM TIME TO TIME. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL (SHORTAGE) PROBLEM THAT CAUSES THE CAR NOT TO START AND KILLS THE BATTERY. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACED THE FOUR(4) TIMES. THE CAR HAS TOTALLY DIED ON ME FIVE (5) DIFFERENT TIMES AND HAD TO BE TOWED. THE FIRST AND SECOND TIMES IT DIED, IT WAS BETWEEN 25-40K MILES ; THEREFORE, STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THE THIRD TIME IT WAS A LITTLE BEYOND 60K AND THE DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT HONOR THE EXTENDED WARRANTY, SO I PAID OUT OF POCKET. THE FOURTH I REPLACED THE BATTERY AGAIN. THE FIFTH AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS THE BATTERY WAS RECHARGED. LOST STEERING POWER WHILE DRIVING. THE DIC READOUT "CHECK GAS CAP," I WOULD TIGHTEN THE HAD CAP, BUT STILL THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. I HAVE REPLACED THE HAD CAP THE TIMES. LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING. CAR WILL NOT GO ABOVE 40 MPH. TRANSMISSION DIPSTICK IS MISSING. *TR
