G6

  • 60,000 miles
Front suspension issues. I have had to replace both front lower control arms, both front wheel bearings, and the passenger side strut. With these parts failing, they also ruin the tires. This causes for me to have to replace brand new tires as well. Interior light does not come on when doors are opened. Parking brake does not fully release causing excessive wear on the inside brake pad of the rear brakes.

G6 6-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 200 miles
Grinding noise when changing gears on 6 speed manual transmission. Clicking or popping noises from transmission when taking foot off of gas. Transmission has a very poor feel generally and generally feels disconnected from the vehicle. Grinding is more apparent with low speed shifts or when turning. The second complaint is that the fog light button and the seat heater switch get noticeably hot while driving with the lights on. The third complaint is that the dash lights do not go on when you put the lights on manually during the day.
