NHTSA Complaint #11062339 — 2006 PONTIAC G6

ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS ON DASH CAME ON DURING A ROUTINE DRIVE, AND REMAIN ON. HAD MECHANIC INSPECT- CONCLUDED THAT BOTH SENSORS WORKING, MALFUNCTION DUE TO NO ELECTRICITY BEING DELIVERED. AS A RESULT, CRITICAL CRASH AVOIDANCE FEATURES (BOTH ANTI-LOCK BRAKE AND TRACTION CONTROL ARE CRITICAL) ARE DISABLED / FAILING. REPAIR WOULD REQUIRE TRACING WIRE BACK TO POINT OF ISSUE. BEFORE HAVING A PRIVATE MECHANIC ADDRESS, I LEARNED OF RECALL FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V252000) EFFECTIVE AUG 18, 2014, WHEREBY GM TO ADDRESS WIRING HARNESS WITH SPACERS AND DIELECTRICAL LUBRICANT. CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS ON THIS AND TOLD NO OPEN RECALL; TOLD THAT IT WAS ALREADY ADDRESSED BY SERVICE AT DEVAN CHEVROLET, WILTON CT ON AUG 13, 2015. I DO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I HAD THE CAR AT THAT DEALER / SERVICE CENTER ON THAT DATE FOR ANOTHER MATTER- I HAD NO ISSUES OR SYMPTOMS WITH ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL WHILE ITS POSSIBLE THAT DURING THAT VISIT THEY ACTIONED THE REMEDY DETAILED IN THE RECALL, HOWEVER, AS THERE WAS NO NOTED ISSUE AT THAT TIME, I AM NOT SURE THEY DID ANYTHING THAT MADE A DIFFERENCE. NOW THAT THE SYMPTOMS ARE PERSISTENT, GM APPEARS TO DECLARE NO REPAIR IS REQUIRED UNDER THE RECALL.
