We are having trouble getting the key out of the ignition. I done some research and there is potentially an issue with the shift cable. Of the car is not in park when shut off then the key will not come out. Unfortunately the potential.issue with the shift cable is it may look.like the car is in park but may not be. Leading to the car possibly rolling away and cause damage or injury. I have had many issues with this car and recalls fixed.this needs to be another recall for these cars.

- Murrysville, PA, USA

During routine oil change visit after long trip, was notified of extensive wear & damage to 3 of 4 tires. One had strip of rubber wrap around the axel, bust the boot & brakes & bent the axel. Another had @ 5X4 inch piece of rubber missing, steel belts were shining. Third tire had areas of separation all around the tire, more steel belts visible. Luckily they held pressure & didn't blow out. Have always kept them rotated & balanced. It'd been 6 months since they'd been rotated/balanced -- and only 6000 miles. One service guy mentioned "outer edge wear" on them, but the service manager, after looking at the remaining warranty/miles left, said that the tires were supposed to wear like they were. The tires were 4 yrs old & had @ 60,000mi. On them.

I arrived home, the car has been driving fine, I got out, went inside my home for approx. 15 min, got back in the car and it will not go out of park, the shifter is extremely loose and just slides from park to low, I know there is a recall about the cable being broke and it possibly being stuck in another gear and I didn't know if this fell into that category before I spent money on a mechanic, I have not received a recall about the cable, the only recall I have received is about the brake lamp. Please contact me asap. Thank you

On accelerating from 0 to 20 mph the transmission will not shift into 2nd gear, when letting off of the accelerator, the transmission will not shift, when re-accelerating the transmission will not engage and the engine races to 7000 RPM, then the transmission engages at about 5000 RPM and causes the vehicle to jerk forward. I have taken the vehicle into the dealership on 10/30/12, 3/5/13, 8/19/13, 9/12/13. Diagnosis cannot find any problem and the technician tells me I am "tricking" the transmission when I de-accelerate and accelerate again. This has been a constant problem from 30,000 miles to current mileage of 47,000 miles. Recently, I was approaching a red light at about 25mph and the light turned green. I accelerated and the transmission did not engage and the engine raced to 7000 RPM. I was almost hit from the rear. I am fearful to drive the vehicle with the transmission operating in this erratic manner. I do not believe transmissions are engineered to allow a driver to "trick" the transmission. I have read comments from other owners of the same type vehicle that a similar problem exists with their transmissions. I have concluded that there is a manufacture defect with this transmission and the vehicle could be a danger to myself and others should an accident occur.

My wife and daughter had just come out of a restaurant. My wife started the car, put it into reverse, and backed up to exit the lot. When she put the car into 'drive', the shift indicator was correctly positioned on the console but the car remained in reverse. My wife tried to put the car into park, but was unable because the car would not come out of reverse. She ended up shutting off the car and with the help of a couple of strangers, they were able to push it into an empty space. Because the car was stuck in reverse, it would not restart when she tried. She decided to leave the car in the lot overnight and have it towed the next morning. When the tow truck driver arrived the next day, my wife explained the situation to him. He opened the hood, reached down and adjusted a plastic mounting snap and then had my wife try to start the car. She was able to put it into 'park' and it started right up. The tow truck driver knew exactly what was wrong and told her that G6's were prone to this problem and he indicated that there was a recall item out for it (GM recall 14152). My wife took the car to flow GM auto service of winston-salem and they had the bracket and cable in stock and indicated further that there was, indeed, a recall for that same issue on 2008 Pontiac G6's but the VIN of our car was not in the list, so the recall would not be in effect. In other words, we would have to payfor it ourselves. The mechanical failure of our car matches the fault for 2008 Pontiac G6 as outlined in the recall. Had my wife been backing out at a faster speed, or into traffic, this could have been catastrophic. Please tell me what I have to do to get reimbursed.

November 6 2014 I purchased a 2008 Pontiac G6 I had a scheduled visit to repair a cracked gauge cluster, a seat repair and repair of my adjustable pedals while on the way to the dealer for repairs I noticed a hesitation in my transmission when shifting from 1st to 2nd. I notified the service writer of that happening and she said they would look into it. I was given a 3 month 3000 mile warranty that said nothing about who would pay for any repairs. It was in service at least a week. They call and say it.S ready and I pick it up it drives fine for 8 days and the electronics stop working all the warning lights are on ABS, traction control the odometer read the word error and my transmission wouldn't shift right. I drove it right back and they took it in for repair. This time they have it for 2 weeks ( I have the paperwork to prove this ). they finally call and tell me it's ready I pick it up no charge again and it drives fine for 4 days.same electronic problem happens again.and now it won't start. I have it towed in they have it for another 6 day. They call say it's fixed I pick it up it drives fine for a couple days and it again all warning lights on won't shift right traction control not working and the odometer reads error again. This time I don't shut it off and drive it right there I could not afford another tow charge I'm on a fixed income. They have it for another 10 days. They call me tell me it's fixed for the 5th time I go pick it up 6 days later the transmission is slipping I bring it in they tell me it needs a rebuild far $2357 and because it is a different problem I have to pay half of the price. I was told by a sae certified master mechanic that multiple computer failures may have prematurely cause the internal hard parts of the transmission to fail it has 60,820 miles on it well under GM mileage warranty. Called GM they side with the dealer
