 My pontiac g6 has had an exterior lighting issue since august of 2012. pontiac will not help me fix this. the brake lights do not work when you press the pedal and turn on without the pedal being pressed. my cruise control no longer works period. a gm technician looked at my car and could not find anything that he could do to fix it. when he used the tech 2 tool, he would try and turn one tail light on and the opposite would turn on instead. pontiac will not even look at my car at any dealer for free. they want me to pay and maybe get reimbursed for it. i have many issues with my car but this is the worst. my panoramic sun roof leaks and makes a ton of noise while i drive. the sun shade fell off on it as well. *tr

 The cruise control kicks off for no apparent reason. this happens all the time. we wanted to let you know because we read that the nhtsa is considering a recall on all 05 to 09 models. the turn signals also do not turn off automatically and i've heard this is a fairly common problem on these cars. *tr

 I have a 2007 pontiac g6. i have been having issues with my brake lights coming on while i am accelerating and the brake lights go off when i brake putting me at higher risk for an accident. i have also experienced issues with having a hard time shifting out of park as well as my cruise control cuts off randomly for no reason and lastly i am also have a check airbag light that will not go off. *tr

 Situation: the g6 was on cruise control at about 50 mph, the road was in vermont hills/mountains, the weather was raining -- from light to an increasing intensity. the wipers were turned on to the low pulse setting, and as the rain intensity increased the pulse frequency was increased one step at a time. when the pulse was at its fastest, and the g6 was proceeding up an incline and the cruise logic was in the process of deciding to shift geaars, the windshield wipers stopped enough to obscure all vision. this condition repeated itself until i changed the pulse setting to constant. then, again, but this time in west lafayette travelling from the main road north out of town up route 443 between route 43 and 52 on cruise at 35 mph in a rain with the wipers on fast pulse the wipers stopped and vision was obscured. sooo, the hill/incline does not have to be 'mountainous' or very long in duration. the dealer in vt suggested i should just put it on constant pulse to avoid the issue -- duh. the dealer in michigan attempted to replicate the condition but city traffic, etc. prohibited the 'experiment'. the gm customer relations contacts simply kept telling me that the condition 'did not exist' because it could not be replicated -- which was the same as calling me a liar. duh. yet the gm cr would not allow me to discuss the issue with anyone involved with the vehicle design or build -- because it could not be duplicated yet i duplicated the vt occurrence in illinois in different terrain. since the 'hill' in west lafayette is very typical of hills in most of the states in the usa it is likely that anyone driving in the conditions noted would experience the same result. yet, no one in gm will sit and discuss this at a functional level. when the wiper stops and no one can see out the front windshield, whether travelling at 50 or 35 mph the condition is very critical and a serious accident can occur. i have been trying to discuss this frequently since it occurred.

 March 2008 my car started not responding properly with my throttle pedal position. i took it to 2 car dealers under warranty to have it repaired. while in stop and go traffic the car will accelerate on it's own. it has traveled in excess of 35 mph on it's own - i usually shift the car to nuetral to get it to stop. as of july 1 / 2008 the dealer has all but given up repairing this problem. i now have parked the car because it is unsafe to drive and hired a attorny to fight gm to repair or refund my money for this car.
