NHTSA Complaint #10971219 — 2008 PONTIAC G6

MY CAR ROLLED BACKWARD WHILE IN PARK WHEN BEING REMOVED FROM THE BACK OF A TOW TRUCK. I PARKED MY CAR AND WHEN I RETURN THE CAR WOULDN'T START. I HAD IT TOWED AND THAT IS WHEN IT ROLLED OFF THE TOW TRUCK WHILE THE GEAR SHIFT WAS IN PARK. I BELIEVE FOR SOME REASON THE CAR WAS IN GEAR (REVERSE). THE CAR THEN START AND APPEARS TO FUNCTION WITHOUT ISSUE. I SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND 2009 G6 WERE RECALLED FOR A SIMILAR ISSUE AS WELL AS SATURN AURA. THESE CARS USE THE SAME COMPONENTS AS THE 2008 G6. FORTUNATELY MY EXPERIENCE HAD NO CONSEQUENCE MAINLY BECAUSE I PARKED MY CAR ON LEVEL GROUND. I NOW CONSIDER THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I WILL NOT USE THE CAR UNTIL I HAVE SOMEONE INSPECT THE CAR.
