| Vehical started to make a clunking sound in the brakes and every once and a while having difficulties removing it from park. shortly after these problems started the cruze control stopped working. little did we know that the brake lights were working in reverse all this time! when your on the gas the brake lights are on when you hit the brakes the brake lights go out! this is incredibly dangeruse gm has issued a recall for this same issue for the 05 g6 model but none of the others, a simple google searcdh shows how common this is with the g6 line from 05-09! we would have had no clue this was going on if i haden't foolowed my fiance one night and noticed it other wise we would have found out when some one hit us due to the poor breaks or computer of the pontiac g6. | |||
