2006 PONTIAC G6 Traction Control System Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY AND A LOUD ABNORMAL NOISE EMITTED WHENEVER THE GEARS WERE SHIFT. ALSO, THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE WOULD ROCK BACK AND FORTH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER, THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM FAILED CAUSING THE CONTACT TO CRASH INTO A WALL. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES REPORTED. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE STEERING WHEEL AND WAS DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHILE PARKED, THE VEHICLE SHIFTED OUT OF GEAR. ADDITIONALLY, THE FRONT PASSENGER TIE ROD, BALL JOINT, AND THE HUB WORE OUT PREMATURELY. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000.

I HIT A POTHOLE AND THE BRACKET HOLDING THE CONTROL WIRES FOR THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BROKE AND MY SHOCKS RIPPED THE WIRES. I NOW NO LONGER HAVE ABS OR TRACTION CONTROL, ATLEAST ON STATED TIRE. MY IDIOT LIGHTS IN THE DASH ARE NOW CONSTANTLY ON AND PUT OUT AN ALERT DING EVERY TIME THE CAR IS STARTED. I PREVIOUSLY HAD SOME ALIGNMENT WORK DONE, BUT THAT WAS OVER 4 MONTHS AGO. THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED IMMEDIATELY AFTER HITTING SAID POTHOLE. I HIT A CURB BACK IN 2007 WHICH LED TO THE ALIGNMENT WORK THAT WAS DONE A FEW MONTHS AGO. THE PLASTIC USED FOR THE WINDSHIELD WASHER JETS HAS ALSO RECENTLY CORRODED AND FELL APART, SO THEY NO LONGER WORK EITHER. *TR

MY CURRENT PROBLEM WITH MY 2006 PONTIAC G6 SOUNDS THE SAME AS THE RECALL FOR THE 2009 PONTIAC G6. TODAY (12-8-10) I HAD TO BRING IN MY CAR IN TO THE DEALER AFTER PUTTING MY CAR IN PARK, WHICH THEN PROCEEDED TO ROLL. THE WIRING SYSTEM DID NOT SEEM TO RECOGNIZE PARK OR DISCONNECTED FROM THE TRANSMISSION. I LATER TRIED TO TURN THE IGNITION AND THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN ON AT ALL. 4 MONTHS AGO I BROUGHT IT IN FOR THE KEY GETTING STUCK IN THE IGNITION BECAUSE THE CAR DIDN'T RECOGNIZE IT AS BEING IN PARK. THREE OTHER TIMES I HAD ISSUES WITH THE BRAKE/FOOT PEDDLES. I WOULD HAVE TO BREAK TO ACCELERATE AND DRIVE TO SLOW DOWN OR IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL UNTIL IT REACHED 30MPH. IT WOULD AUTOMATICALLY DRIVE IN TRACTION CONTROL AND READ DECREASED ENGINE POWER ON THE PANEL. IN ADDITION, I HAVE...

PURCHASED A 2006 PONTIAC G6 GTP, I HAVE RECENTLY CAUSED MANY CLOSE CALLS OF HARMING PEOPLES LIFE DUE TO THE FAILURE OF SHIFTING OF MY TRANSMISSION IN A FAIRLY NEW VEHICLE. THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND DOES NOT GO INTO GEAR SOMETIMES AND WHEN ENTERING THE HIGHWAY EVERYDAY IS A CHALLENGE IF I WILL MAKE IT OR NOT. THE VEHICLE DECIDES IF IT WILL GO OR NOT AND I DON'T BELIEVE THIS 2006 VEHICLE SHOULD BE ON THE ROAD OR OTHERS TO BE SOLD UNTIL THIS ONGOING PROBLEM ACROSS THE NATION TO BE SOLVED. IT HAPPENS AT 65,000 MILES ON ALL VEHICLES THAT HAVE REPORTED THIS ISSUE. *TR
