I leased a 06' Pontiac G6 in June of 06' and I've had nothing but problems with the car since I got it. On 2/16/08 I was on my way to Florida for vacation and I was half way there when I noticed the brakes were grinding. I only have 26,000 miles on my car and this was the first long distance to ever be driven with my car. So when I arrived to Florida on bad brakes I took it to a Pontiac dealership and they told me I just needed brakes and it would cost 210 per brake because all they brakes had went. And I didnt have the money to pay for brakes (which very rarely go all at once or at 26,000 miles.) I had just replaced all 4 tires a week prior. So I took my car to have a second opinion at another place who specialize in brakes only and they found that the calipers in my car had malfunctioned and they wore the brakes down to bare metal. Pontiac refused to pay and told us that brakes aren't in the warranty and that it's normal wear and tear. Which I know first hand its not. My father has a 04' Kia and hes been back and forth to Florida 4 times and has 36,000 miles and hes never replaced his brakes or tires. This is totally ridiculous and I know this is not normal to happen to a car.

My brakes started making a whining noise the week of 11-12-07. I had it looked at by the dealer on 11-21-07..the service manager advised me that I needed to replace my brake pads and recommended to have the rotors resurfaced. My car first came out in 2005. I've had my car 1.5 years. I do not drive in a lot of traffic. If anything I drive less than what I've ever with any car. I have had several cars leading up to this one and have never had to replace/fix anything with the brakes. I had my brakes fixed 11-26-07 and had to resurface the back rotors down to a 1,000. They will never be able to be resurfaced again. I had to replace all of the brake pads and resurface the front rotors as well. I am very shocked that I had to fix the brakes this soon!

Brake lights not functioning properly! brake lights either was on all the time or flickered. The dealer has been great by putting me in alt transportaion, but seemed the problem only existed with me for they did not have the problem with the car while in their possesion, but when I picked up my car the problem was again there. They have replaced the brake light switch, ABS module, and reprogrammed the BCM. But the problem still existed. Very dangerous, no one could tell when stopping, slowing or going or just riding the brakes. This has to be addressed.
