I BOUGHT THIS CAR, A 2007 PONTIAC G6 GT COUPE ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO AND IT ONLY HAD 37,000 MILES. IT NOW STILL ONLY HAS 75,000 AND THE BALL JOINTS ARE OUT! THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN THIS SOON. I HAVE ANOTHER CAR, A 1997 BUICK LESABRE AND IT'S BALL JOINTS ARE STILL IN GOOD CONDITION. IT HAS 167,000 MILES. IT CAUSED ALL OF MY TIRES TO WEAR OUT EARLY AND NOW I'M LOOKING AT OVER A 1000 DOLLARS TO FIX IT. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A DESIGN PROBLEM. THE CAR IS UNDRIVEABLE. IT'S NOT SAFE TO BE DRIVEN BECAUSE OF THESE BALL JOINTS GOING BAD SO EARLY. I GUESS I'LL HAVE TO GO BACK TO DRIVING MY MUCH OLDER BUT MUCH MORE RELIABLE CAR. *TR

IN LESS THAN A YEAR I HAVE REPLACE THE WHEEL BEARING HUB TWICE ON BOTH SIDES, ISSUES WITH THE ABS TWICE, ALL AT MY COST APPROX. 2000, NOW THIS MONTH MY BRAKE LIGHTS RUN WHILE DRIVING AND TURN OFF WHEN I PRESS ON THE BRAKES. SERIOUSLY WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE G6. *TR

AGAIN, I BOUGHT THIS CAR BACK IN 2009 AND THE FRONT END WAS MAKING CLUNKING SOUNDS IN THE FRONT END AT SLOW SPEEDS. ALSO, EVERY SLIGHT BUMP IN THE ROAD SEEMS LIKE I'M DRIVING DOWN A WAR ZONE. I UNDERSTAND THESE ARE LOW PROFILE TIRES AND THE RIDE ISN'T LIKE A CADILLAC, HOWEVER, THE FRONT END ON THESE CARS ARE NOT WELL BUILT. FROM THE DRIVER'S SEAT, THE SOUNDS MAKE ME FEEL UNEASY AS IF THE TIRES ARE ABOUT TO FALL OFF FROM ALL THE CLUNKING, POPPING AND OTHER SOUNDS! THIS IS ALSO TRUE IN MANY OTHER GM MODELS, AS WELL. IS THIS A SAFETY ISSUE? OR NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT? WHEN I TRADE THIS IN, I WON'T BE BUYING ANOTHER GM PRODUCT, THAT'S FOR SURE!
