2009 Pontiac G6 GT 3.5L V6 - on 09/23/11 when I put my car into park, the transmission was still in drive position. The shifter handle was loose and would not lock into P, R, N, D. turned off the engine and could remove keys but when I tried to crank the car again it wouldn't crank. Had the car towed to a local dealer and they told me that the shifter cable was broken. Had the cable replaced along with a new bracket. On 07/24/12 (83600 miles) I am having the same problem again!! I called the same dealer and he told me that there is a 12 month or 12000 mile warranty on parts and labor but unfortunately I had already driven 22000 miles in the last 10 months. Dealer said they could check my car on diagnostics to tell me what could be causing the problem for $90 per hour. I can't afford to pay for them to tell me just what is causing the problem. I searched 2009 recalls and found one for my car, saying that the shifter cable clip may not be in place and that it could cause the vehicle transmission to be in drive while the shifter is in park. Sometimes my shifter had a little difficulty to get out of park position, like it was locked up. So what in the world is causing my shifter cable to break twice in a 10 month period"? is anyone else having the same problem as me?"

My brake lights stick or remain on even when they are not being pressed making it appear that im riding my brakes. I have been pulled over by the police once already. I have replaced the brake light switch twice and it works for a couple of days only. I have seen a recall in the 2005 and 2006 models but it is still occuring in the newer models. I have seen hundreds of blogs about this problem in this particular model of car. This is just an accident waiting to happen when your brake lights arent working correctly. As well as the car getting stuck in park.
