2006 PONTIAC G6 Structure Problems

ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO MY G6 STARTED LEAKING WATER AROUND THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR AND I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT WOULD BECOME WET WHEN IT RAINED AND IT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE TO THE POINT IT SOAKS THE DRIVERS SEAT AND HEADLINER AND THE ENTIRE CAR HOLDS SO MUCH MOISTURE YOU CAN'T EVEN SEE OUT OF THE WINDOWS. I HAVE A SUNROOF BY THE WAY. THIS PAST WEEKEND I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH AND SAW A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM SO I PULLED BACK SOME OF THE HEADLINER AND LIKE THEY SAID THE DRAINAGE TUBES WERE NOT EVEN CONNECTED. WE TRIED TO RECONNECT THEM BUT THEY ARE SO SHORT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE. I READ SOMEWHERE THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND THAT THEY HAD SHRUNK DUE TO HEAT BUT APPARENTLY NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO MAKE THIS RIGHT AND THEY...

POWER STEERING HOSE IS RUBBING AGAINST EXHAUST WHICH NOW HAS MADE THE POWERS STEERING HOSE TO LEAK WHICH COULD CAUSE A FIRE IF IT HIT THE EXHAUST. *TR

POWER STEERING WENT OUT DURING BLIZZARD-LIKE CONDITIONS. I COULD NOT TURN THE WHEEL. SINCE THEN, INTERMITTENT TIMES OF POWER STEERING LOCKING UP. THEN, IN SEPTEMBER OF 2010, CAR BEGAN RATTLING, THUMPING, HAVING A MIND OF ITS OWN. SOUNDS LIKE AN AIRPLANE. POWER STEERING NOTICE AND ENGINE LIGHT ARE ON PERMANENTLY NOW. I HAVE ALREADY TALKED ABOUT THE POTENTIAL FOR ACCIDENT WITH MY CHILDREN AND HAD TO PREPARE THEM FOR THIS BECAUSE WE CANNOT AFFORD ALL OF THIS WORK. IN THE LAST TWO YEARS, THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN REPLACED 7 TIMES (IN THE SHOP 6 TIMES IN 2008 FROM MAY-SEPT). THEY HAD TO SPECIAL ORDER THE CALIPERS BECAUSE LIKE THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING, THE CALIPERS ON A G6 ARE THE ONLY CAR THAT IS "DONE THIS WAY." THE STEERING FAILURE IS NOW TAKING A TOLL ON THE BRAKES. I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED THE FLOODING ON THE FLOOR BOARDS OF THE CAR...

CLEAR COAT DELAMINATION FOR 2006 PONTIAC G6 GTP. *TR

I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR ALMOST 3 YEARS. IT SQUEAKS LIKE THE PLASTIC IS RUBBING AGAINST EACH OTHER. THE BRAKES HAVE NOT STOPPED SQUEAKING. I HAVE HAD THEM REDONE ABOUT 4 TIMES. THE BLACK RUBBER STRIP IS ROTTING. THERE IS A LEAK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE COMING THROUGH THE LITTLE SQUARE RIGHT ABOUT THE SEAT BELT. MY WARRANTY IS UP AND MY EXTENDED WARRANTY DOES NOT CARRY OVER TO FIX ANY OF THIS. MY CAR UPHOLSTERY WAS ALREADY REDONE ONCE DUE TO A FLOODING AND I PAID FOR THAT. NOW THE BACKSEAT SMELLS LIKE MOLD. THE HANDLE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE BECAUSE IT KEEPS COMING OFF. THIS IS THE WORST INVESTMENT I HAVE EVER MADE. I JUST FOUND OUT THAT THE POWER STEERING IS ACTUALLY ELECTRIC. I HATE IT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 PONTIAC G6 GT. WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE OFF THE DEALER LOT AT APPROXIMATELY 2 MPH, THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL FAILURE WITH THE POWER WINDOWS. IN ADDITION, THE CELL PHONE CHARGER FUSE CONTINUED TO BLOW OUT. THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY WOULD MAKE REPAIRS UNDER WARRANTY. THERE WAS BUBBLING IN THE PAINT JOB THAT WAS ALSO REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY. WHENEVER THE VEHICLE IS STARTED, THE STEREO CHANGES FROM XM FM TO AM. THE SCREEN FOR THE XM RADIO IS BLANK, THE CLOCK IS ALWAYS BEHIND, AND THE FUEL GAUGE NEVER WORKS PROPERLY. IT IS DIFFICULT TO TELL EXACTLY HOW MUCH FUEL IS IN THE VEHICLE. THE ENGINE TICKS PERIODICALLY AND IT SOMETIMES STALLS UPON STARTING. THE NUTS IN THE DOOR LOOSEN EVERY TWO WEEKS AND MAKE A LOUD CLUNKING SOUND WHEN THEY ARE COMING LOOSE. THERE IS ALSO SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE POWER STEERING. THE FAILURE...

CLEAR COAT CHIPPED OFF CAR, ROTORS WARPING EVERY 3 MONTHS, BUTTONS ON RADIO DISCOLORED, SUNROOF STOPPED WORKING, POWER STEERING LOCKED UP 4 TIMES, BATTERY NEEDED REPLACED 3 TIMES, CAR HESITATES WHEN STARTING & THEN DIES, JERKING SENSATION WHEN DRIVING - I'VE TAKING INTO THE DEALERSHIP 26 TIMES IN THE PAST 3 YEARS. *TR

FIRST LEAK WAS THE XM ANTENNA. WATER CAME IN THROUGH ROOF CENTER CONSOLE LIGHTS. SECOND LEAK WAS FROM THE SUNROOF WATER ENTERED THE CABIN THROUGH THE SAME PLACE. DEALER REPAIRED SUNROOF DRAIN TUBE. THIRD LEAK WAS THE SUNROOF DRAIN TUBE. DEALER REPAIRED THE OTHER SUNROOF DRAIN TUBE. THE WATER ENTER THE CABIN AND RAN ON THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT. THIS HAPPENED IN THE WINTER AND THE SEAT BELT FROZE SOLID IN THE RETRACTION REEL. AT THE SAME TIME THE WATER ALSO DAMAGED THE AIRBAG SENSORS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND CAUSED THE AN AIRBAG FAILURE. THE FORTH LEAK SOAKED BOTH SEAT BELTS. THIS TIME THE DEALERSHIP EXTENDED THE SUNROOF DRAIN TUBES PER A SERVICE BULLETIN. NOW THERE ARE INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR. THE HEADS LIGHTS WOULD NOT TURN ON UNTIL THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF THEN RESTARTED. THE TURN SIGNALS, INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LIGHTS, AND HEATER CONTROL LIGHTS STOPPED...

I NOTICED A 'BLOBBY'-LIKE PLASTIC SOMETHING COMING UP FROM THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE DASH, ESP. WHEN IT WAS HOT. THIS HAD ONLY BEEN HAPPENING FOR A WEEK OR SO. TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER, INFORMED THAT IT WAS THE WEATHER STRIPPING COMING AWAY FROM THE DASH AND THE WINDSHIELD.*JB

(1) HIGH SPEED DRIVING (50 MILES PH) AND CAR WASH (2) LOT OF AIR NOISE THROUGH SUN ROOF AND WATER LEAKAGE IN THROUGH SUN ROOF IN CAR WASH (3) DEALER MENTIONED LOT OF COMPLAINTS RECEIVED FROM OTHER CUSTOMER. WHEN THEY CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER (GM) THEY REQUEST TO CONTACT THE COMPANY THAT DESIGNED IT. THE COMPANY'S PHONE GOES TO THE ANSWERING MC AND NO RESOLUTION TO THE ISSUE. NOTHING IS DONE. *JB
