TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO START THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY PRESSURE TO THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL FOR THE VEHICLE TO START. ALSO, UPON EXITING THE VEHICLE, A STRONG FUEL ODOR WAS DETECTED AROUND THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP WAS DEFECTIVE. THE CONTACT HAD THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED. THE MECHANIC INFORMED HER THAT THE VEHICLE MAY HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN A RECALL; HOWEVER, THE VIN TOOL DID NOT LOCATE ANY RECALLS. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 195,000.

I WAS DRIVING AND MY CAR STARTED TO REDUCE SPEED, HESITATE, AND JERK WHEN PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS AT A LIGHT TO PULL OFF OR EVEN WITH MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL DRIVING. MY CAR COULDN'T PICK UP SPEED PAST 25 MILES AND SOMETIME LESS. A MESSAGE CAME UP ON MY DASH BOARD STATED FLASHING REDUCE ENGINE SPEED. I WAS NEAR AUTO ZONE WHEN IT HAPPENED SO I ASKED TO HAVE A DIANOSTIC COMPLETED AND IT STATED THROTTLE/ PEDAL POSITION SENSOR/ SWITCH "E" CIRCUIT LOW INPUT MEANING CODE P2127.

THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER IN MY CAR NEEDS REPLACEMENT. I HAVE BEEN THE ONLY OWNER AND HAVE MAINTAINED IT PROPERLY. THE CAR HAS A LITTLE UNDER 67,000 MILES AND OCCASIONALLY LOSES POWER. IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AS THIS HAPPENS SPORADICALLY. I CAN NOT WITH 100 PERCENT CERTAINTY MERGE INTO TRAFFIC KNOWING THAT IT WILL ACCELERATE FAST ENOUGH. I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC RUN ON THE CAR AND WAS TOLD THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER IS THE ISSUE AND NEEDS REPLACEMENT. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP IN EL PASO, TX AND THEY CLAIM THAT SOME PONTIAC G6 MODELS (BASED ON VIN) HAVE BEEN RECALLED, BUT THAT MINE IS NOT ONE OF THEM. I HAVE LOOKED UP RELATED CASES AND DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY MY CAR'S VIN IS NOT INCLUDED. I LOVE MY CAR AND IT HAS SERVED ME WELL, UNTIL NOW. I HOPE THAT SOMEONE, ANYONE WITH SOME AUTHORITY IS READING THIS. I HOPE...

GEAR SHIFTER MOVES BUT CAR ROLLS AS ITS IN NEUTRAL NO MATTER WHAT WHEN I WENT TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK IT STILL ROLLED FORWARD, WHEN I PUT IT IN REVERSE IT STILL ROLLED FOWARD. ITS AS IF THE GEAR SHIFTER ISN'T PUTTING IT INTO THE CORRECT GEAR. NOW I HAVE TURNED MY CAR OFF AND IT WON'T RESTART BECAUSE IT DOESN'T THINK ITS IN PARK? WHAT COULD THIS BE?

"TAKATA RECALL" IN MY PONTIAC G6 AFTER I HIT 100000 MILES I STARTED HAVING ALL KINDS OF PROBLEMS. MY ABS LIGHT KEEP COMING ON AND OFF. MY THEFT-DETERRENT ALARMS COMES ON AND STAY ON WHILE I DRIVE. THEN IT GOES OFF STAY OFF FOR A DAY MAYBE THEN COME BACK ON. THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON THEN GOES OFF AND COME BACK ON. THE CAR PULLS FORWARD, WHICH IS SCARY. I DRIVE SLOW BECAUSE I WANT TO MAKE SURE I CAN STOP IF I HAVE TO. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE SHOP. PUT IT ON THE DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE THE CODES THAT WERE COMING UP CONTRADICTS WHAT THE CAR IS ACTUALLY DOING. THE MECHANIC SAID I MAY NEED A COMPUTER BUT I MAY HE REALLY DID NOT HAVE A DEFINITELY ANSWER ON WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY CAR. THERE IS NO RECALL FOR MY...

CAR IS A 2008 PONTIAC G6 GXP - THE CAR IS CALLED CYBIL DUE TO IT'S ISSUES GOING ON ONE DAY AND NOT THE NEXT. I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW WITH 128 MILES ON IT.

IF YOU TURNED THE CAR OFF THEN BACK ON A FEW MINUTES LATER IT WOULD SEEM TO RUN RIGHT, ENGINE LIGHT WOULD STAY ON AND 3 CYCLES LATER GO OFF.

MANAGED TO GET THE CAR STARTED, MOVED OFF THE ROAD, AND TOWED TO A CERTIFIED DEALER. DEALER TOOK 3 HOURS ($360) TO RUN DIAGNOSTICS...

THE ENGINE WILL NO ALLOW ME TO GIVE THE CAR GAS TO ACCELERATE, AND THE ENGINE WILL JERK, THE RPMS WILL GO UP AND DOWN BY ITSELF I CALLED THE PONTIAC NUMBER FOR HELP THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOT A RECAL OPEN FOR MY CAR AND THEY THEY WERE NOT ABEL TO DO ANYTHING FOR ME VERY RUDELY. *JS

HAVE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD, CUT THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN CONTINUE DRIVING. PROBLEM STARTED INTERMITTENT AND NOW HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE TIME I DRIVE THE VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD IT STALL OUT ON THE HIGHWAY GOING OVER 50 MPH, VERY DANGEROUS WAS ALMOST HIT. VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE USED LOST SERVICE CENTER THREE TIMES, NO LUCK ON FINDING PROBLEM OR REPAIR.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR JERKED TO THE RIGHT AND PUT ME AND MY KIDS INTO THE DITCH. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE. THE SECOND TIME IT DID IT IN THE SAME DIRECTION(RIGHT) BUT WHEN I HIT THE DITCH SMOKE WAS COMING INTO THE HEAT VENTS WHILE MY KIDS WERE IN THE CAR. BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME THAT MY POWER STEERING LINE WAS BROKE AND ALSO I HAD A MAJOR OIL LEAK AND THAT IT WAS A FIRE HAZARD. THEY THEN TOLD ME THE PRICE OF HOW MUCH TO FIX IT. IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I DON'T FEEL I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT SEEMS TO BE FACTORY MISTAKE. I'VE ALSO HAD AN INCIDENT OF MY CAR SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE IGNITION TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING ONLY GOING AROUND A CORNER. I ONLY HAD...

DRIVING AND SUDDENLY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, ACROSS THE RADIO IT SAID ENGINE POWER REDUCED AND SERVICE TRACTION. IT WOULD BARELY ACCELERATE. IT HAS DONE THIS TWICE IN A WEEK. THEN AFTER A WHILE THE ENGINE LIGHT GOES OFF AND IT WILL SEEM OK. AT STOPS THOUGH, THE CAR SEEMS VERY SHAKY, FEELING LIKE IT WILL STALL, BUT HASN'T YET!!! *TR

I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 40 MPH THEN MY VEHICLE STARTED DECELERATING EVEN AS I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL IT WOULD NOT GO FASTER. IT WOULD SLOW DOWN ABOUT 5MPH AND THEN ACCELERATE MAYBE 3MPH. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO GET INSPECTED BUT THEY COULD NOT FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG. IT WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE AND I GUESS MY MAIN QUESTION IS HAS THIS HAPPEN TOO ANYONE ELSE? IT HAS ONLY HAPPENED 1 TIME. I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING BACK FROM YOU. *JS THANK YOU, [XXX] [XXX] PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

MY PONTIAC G6 2008 STARTED HAVING ACCELERATION PROBLEMS. WHEN GETTING ONTO THE HIGHWAY THE CAR TAKES A LONG TIME TO GET UP TO THE 55-65MPH SPEED. I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM ON PONTIAC G6 FORUMS AND MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE CAR SHOULDN'T BE HAVING THIS PROBLEM SO EARLY ON. THIS IS A DANGEROUS DEFECT AS PEOPLE ARE ALREADY FLYING ON THE HIGHWAY AND WHEN GETTING BEHIND A CAR THAT IS TAKING A LONG TIME TO GET UP THE MATCHING SPEED, YOU ARE ASKING FOR AN ACCIDENT. I'VE ALREADY HAD PEOPLE HONKING THEIR HORN AT ME. THIS CAR HAS SERIOUS ISSUES OUTSIDE OF THE STEERING PROBLEM REPORTED. BETWEEN CONSTANT WATER LEAKS, ACTUATORS FAILING TOO EARLY ON, SPEAKERS BLOWING OUT WHEN HARDLY USED, AND NOW THIS ENGINE ISSUE, I WILL NEVER GET A GM CAR EVER AGAIN. FOR A CAR THAT ONLY HAS 60K ON IT, THESE PROBLEMS SHOULD...
