It seems like GM won't be doing anything NOW since they went bankrupt!!!! This sucks because it's my only transportation. I really don't have the money to fix, I'm afraid what they're going to charge me to get it fix. THANX A LOT GM!!! FOR MAKING CRAPY ASS CARS!!!! I'LL MAKE DAMN SURE I DON'T BUY ANOTHER G6 OR ANOTHER GM CAR!!! I'm going to buy a foreign car from now on!!

G6 4 cyl

Every time, it shifts gears the car jerks me back. When you turn on the car it jerks it forward. When you go from Park to reverse to drive it jerks it forward also. What is wrong with my car? Auto Zone said it was a camshaft position sensor. I don't know anything about cars, can anyone help me?

Trany,seat belt assembly,brakes,wiper motor,squeaky seat from day one,steering/suspension,rigidy/pits in my pillar next to the sunroof, window motors cont. to wind after being up, info. system never is right, heat/air doesn't come out of vents properly on settings. I Am getting depressed. Nough for now. I talked a good friend out of buying a used one for his daughter off to school. She got a Jetta.

I hope a GM rep. contacts me.
