I AM GREATLY IN NEED OF YOUR ASSISTANCE. I OWN A 2007 PONTIAC G6 HARDTOP CONVERTIBLE. I PURCHASED IT IN JANUARY 2016. ABOUT A MONTH AFTER PURCHASE, I TRIED TO PUT THE TOP UP . ON ITS WAY TO CLOSING AND LOCKING ITS MECHANISM CAUSED A MALFUNCTION AND BROKE THE PART NUMBER 25887153 AWAY. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE DEALER @ GM OF VACAVILLE, CA. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME, 'THIS PART IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE', & THEY HAD MY VEHICLE FOR 3 WEEKS. I HAVE INCURRED $ 1400. IN AUTO RENTAL FEES. I HAVE TALKED WITH MORE THAN 20 PONTIAC DEALERS ALL STATE; "WE HAVE BEEN TOLD BY GM TO SAY - THE PART NO LONGER EXIST AND IS NOT AVAILABLE"THE PARTS MANUFACTURE, KARMANN MADE THE PART FOR GM. THEY MAY HAVE THE PART IN THEIR WAREHOUSE. BUT, ACCORDING TO THEIR EMPLOYEE, GM WILL NOT GIVE THEIR PERMISSION TO SELL IT THE WORST THING IS: I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH OVER 25 PARTS DEALERS I CALLED GM AT 1-866-790-5600 EXT. 5914235 AND SPOKE WITH NATALIE. SHE ATTEMPTED TO ASSIST BUT AFTER NO PROGRESS . A MALE ANSWERED THE PHONE HE INDICATED THAT HE WAS HER SUPERVISOR, HOWEVER REFUTED TO GIVE ME HIS NAME, AND THEN STATED, 'IT'S NOT AVAILABLE, THE PART IS DISCONTINUED, AND PONTIAC DOESN'T EXIST SO GET OVER IT, OR DEAL WITH IT! IT'S NOT MY PROBLEM, IT'S YOURS, AND YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE A WARRANTY CAUSE ITS EXPIRED.' HE SLAMMED THE PHONE DOWN IN MY EAR. PLEASE ASSIST ME TO GET THE PART, OR BUY BACK THE VEHICLE AND RETURN MY INCURRED COSTS OF $13,500.THE "TOP IS NOT SECURE" HAS LEFT NO OPTION BUT TO PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE G6 IS GARAGED AND UNDRIVABLE

WE BOUGHT THIS CONVERTIBLE PONTIAC 2007 G6 ALMOST A YEAR AGO & HAD TROUBLE WITH THE TOP NOT WORKING. IT HAS BEEN WORKED ON 5 TIMES SINCE WE'VE HAD IT & RIGHT NOW STILL NOT WORKING. IF YOU TRY TO PUT IT DOWN IT WILL GET STUCK IN MID-AIR & MAY SET THERE FOR 12 HOURS BEFORE IT GOES DOWN & IT WILL SAY TOP IS NOT SECURE SO YOU CAN'T DRIVE IT LIKE THAT. PLACE WHERE WE GOT IT HAD IT ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO & SAID THEY'RE WAITING FOR A PART THAT IS ORDERED BUT WE TALKED TO THE PONTIAC DEALERSHIP THIS MORNING & THEY SAID THAT PART IS NO LONGER BEING MADE & THEY TOLD THE GUY WE THE CAR FROM IF HE COULD FIND THE PART & THEY START FIXING IT & SOMETHING ELSE IS WRONG THEY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO FIX THIS CAR. SO BASICALLY WE HAVE BEEN PAYING FOR THE CAR FOR 1 YEAR NOW - HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO USE THE TOP - MY HUSBAND HAS MISSED WORK BECAUSE THE TOP WAS SUPPOSE TO BE FIXED HE'D TRY TO PUT IT DOWN & IT GETS STUCK IN MID-AIR & YOU CAN'T PUT IT DOWN WHEN IT DOES THAT IT SETS FOR ABOUT 12 HOURS BEFORE IT WILL CLOSE ON IT'S OWN. WE CAN'T DRIVE IT WHEN IS SAYS TOP IS NOT SECURE BECAUSE IT MAY BLOW OFF & THEN SOMETIMES THE TRUNK GETS STUCK & YOU CAN'T OPEN THAT AND GET ANYTHING OUR OF IT. I AM JUST AT A LOSS HERE WE'RE PAYING FOR SOMETHING THAT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE & IF YOU DO LUCK OUT AND GET THE TOP DOWN AFTER IT'S BEEN WORKED ON YOU JUST HAVE TO PRAY THAT IT GOES BACK UP SECURELY. AND HOW CAN THEY STOP MAKING A PART FOR A CAR THAT IS ONLY A 2007 & CONVERTIBLE TOP. WE ARE JUST FRUSTRATED WITH THIS WHOLE SITUATION AND STILL HAVE TO FINISH PAYING FOR THIS CAR OR IT GOES AGAINST US. WE ARE AT A LOSS FOR WHAT TO DO ABOUT THIS. *TR

I OWN A 2007 PONTIAC G6 GTP. I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM PONTIAC THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SUNROOF DRAIN HOSES. I BROUGHT MY CAR IN FOR THE CORRECTION. ABOUT 1.5 YEARS LATER AFTER MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF STANDARD WARRANTY I FIND THAT THEY ARE NOW LEAKING INTO MY PASSENGER SIDE SEATBELT AREA IN BETWEEN THE BODY OF THE CAR AND THE INTERIOR PANEL. THE DEALERSHIP EXPECTS ME TO PAY FOR THIS SINCE THEY SAY THEY CONDUCTED THE REPAIR. *TR

2007 PONTIAC G6 FISHTAILED WHILE DRIVING ON DRY ROADS. CONSUMER STATES THAT THE VEHICLE FISHTAILED WHEN SHE BRAKED AND TRIED TO MOVE RIGHT TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. SHE STATED THAT SHE SOLD THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER. *KB THE DEALER STATED A COMBINATION OF THE SUSPENSION, STRUTS, WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION, AND SWEPT UP DESIGN RESULTED IN THE VEHICLE DIPPING DOWN WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED, WHICH LIFTED THE REAR AND LOCKED THE BRAKES. *JB

THE SUN ROOF OF THIS VEHICLE CREATES SO MUCH WIND NOISE WHEN YOU EXCEED THE SPEED OF 40MPH OR MORE THAT IT WILL GIVE YOU A HEADACHE. I HAVE ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM WITH THE DEALER (WADE RAULERSON PONTIAC, BUICK AND GMC, GAINESVILLE, FLORIDA) AT LEAST THREE TIMES. EACH TIME THERE IS NO IMPROVEMENT IN THE PROBLEMS OF REDUCING THE WIND NOISE. PLEASE LET ME EMPHASIZE THAT I AM NOT THE TYPE WHO GETS HEADACHES. TO ME THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHICH NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PLACED IN PARK, THE DOORS ON THE VEHICLE REMAIN LOCKED. WHEN THE DOORS WERE UNLOCKED, THE DOORS WOULD STILL FAIL TO OPEN.

THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 17,000 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SUN VISOR HINDERED VISIBILITY OF THE WINDSHIELD. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER STATED THAT WAS HOW THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 2,000.*AK
