I had my car for a year and have put 2500 in work on my front end, to still have problems with it. There is a knocking noise when I turn, just had my brakes, rotors replaces and they still grind when it rains. This is the 1st american made car I ever had and my last. This car is a piece of junk and should not me able to be sold. I paid cash for my car thinking I would be ahead, but all I had is a headache. I plan on trading it in and believe me my next car will not be american made. I thought I would support my country, but what for it doesn't care about us. I always take my cars to the dealer, but I cant afford to go every other week or once a month for problems with a car I just got with lessthen 60000 miles on it. This is on real. ## VIN failed

My brake lights are staying on at all times or coming on and off intermittently. I see that there are many other complaints on this site and the web about this problem. I think this needs to be a recall issued by GM.

- Royal Oak, MI, USA

My brake lights keep lighting up as I am driving down the road. When I press the brake pedal the brake lights go out. This is a safety concern that should be addressed by the manufacturer. On cold days my windshield wipers will just quit working. I have had this into the GM shop two times and they say there is nothing wrong with the windshield wipers.

- New Douglas, IL, USA

Brake lights come on and off intermittently. Brought vehicle in for service and brake switch was replaced.

- Oakdale, MN, USA

My brake lights illuminate after I start the car. I do not have the brake pedal depressed. Most of the time, when I depress the brake pedal the brake lights turn off. The lights will stay off for a few seconds after I release the brake pedal then they will turn back on, again without pressing the brake pedal. I notice this at night with the headlights on (I can see the reflection of the brake lights on the road behind me). After this occurred most recently, I stopped the vehicle and turned off all exterior lights and this issue continued to occur. I have taken the vehicle to the dealer twice for repair and they claimed that they could not replicate the issue. However, this happens every time I drive the vehicle at night, which is at least four times per week.

The vehicle is a Pontiac G6 with less than 32,000 miles and has been serviced in accordance with all manufacture's recommendations. When the vehicle is initially started (traction control automatically activated) this problem is not as noticeable as with traction control manually turned off; basically, traction control masks the problem. The symptom: The vehicle has front end, side to side, vibrations when brakes are applied. After a complete inspection of the rotors and brake system (rotors removed from spindles) rather than visual inspection outlined by the manufacture, it is believed that the traction control being programmed normally on at start up is causing inside (caliber) rotor warping and premature brake pad and rotor replacements. Additionally, it was suggested to evaluate the metal qualities of the rotors (maybe not casted in accordance with proper metal specifications), this too be the root cause since the pads are only worn 30-35%. since these parts are considered 'wear items', these premature replacement costs are not covered under the manufacture's warranty, nor are they being monitored by the manufacture.

The front and rear rotors need to be resurfaced on my 2008 Pontiac G6. The rotors were replaced less than 10 months ago and 6,500 miles ago.

- Vail, CO, USA

I purchased a 08 Pontiac G6 GT used with around 20,000 miles. At 32,000 I started having problem with my rotors. They front of the car was shaking back and forth. I took it to a GM dealer and requested new rotors since I am aware of all of the problems they have been having with the rotors. They would not replace them but only turn them. At 42,000 they are now warped again. I first complained to the dealer that done the work and they said I was out of luck. The dealer I bought the car from said that I was out of luck. But they told me that it was a "common problem" with those cars. I filed a complaint with GM and they said it was a common problem where I live because of all the mountains. I feel that there should be a recall with the G6/Malibu/aura (GM's epsilon) cars. They are aware of the problem and will not do anything to fix it.

Warped front rotors causing vibrations in steering column. GM service center resurfaced the rotors for the first occurrence (approx. 6mo. Ago). The issue has since returned and the rotors will need to be turned or replaced again. Multiple sites have documented that the rotors used on the Pontiac G6's are inadequate for its size/weight.
