Consumer Description

THE PASSENGER HEADLIGHT KEPT GOING OUT, REPLACED IT 3 TIMES IN 1 YR. A BUMP IN THE ROAD CAUSES IT TO GO OFF OR ON. TONIGHT THE DRIVER SIDE IS NOW DOING THE SAME THING. THE HIGHBEAMS WORK BUT NOT LOWBEAMS. I HAVE FOUND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE FOR THE SAME VEHICLE. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL ON THIS ISSUE IF HUNDREDS OF 2008 PONTIAC G6 HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY PARTS ARE "MELTED AND MALFUNCTIONING" I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY OUT OF MY POCKET TO CORRECT AN ISSUE THAT IS NOT A RESULT OF MY OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. BOTH HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT BEFORE I GOT HOME TONIGHT AND I COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING, HAD TO PULL OVER IN A DARK AREA ON THE BACK ROAD (AGAIN UNSAFE), BANGED ON THE HOOD AND ONE CAME BACK ON. WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO HAVE A RECALL ISSUED ON THIS~~A LAWSUIT AFTER A VEHICLE FATALITY OCCURS? THIS IS A PART/VEHICLE ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF PONTIAC TO CORRECT--NOT ME.
