To sum it up started getting "engine power reduced" message from message center in vehicle. Shortly afterward the vehicle will begin flashing the traction control off light and shifting hard. Now the vehicle still shifts hard with the two above messages and is also stalling out when "engine power reduced" message appears. Many times after this the vehicle will not accelerate at all. Have to pull off the road, cut the vehicle completely off for a few minutes and then continue driving. Problem started intermittent and now happens every single time I drive the vehicle. I have had it stall out on the highway going over 50 mph, very dangerous was almost hit. Vehicle has been at the used lost service center three times, no luck on finding problem or repair. Car has been with my local GM certified dealership for 3 days and still no proper diagnosis problem or repair. Has sense received the two recall letters BCM/transmission but dealership is reluctant to repair because they said GM may not pay for time and parts. Worse car purchase I have every made.

I was driving down the road and all of a sudden my car jerked to the right and put me and my kids into the ditch. This has happened twice. The second time it did it in the same direction(right) but when I hit the ditch smoke was coming into the heat vents while my kids were in the car. Brought it to the dealership they told me that my power steering line was broke and also I had a major oil leak and that it was a fire hazard. They then told me the price of how much to fix it. It is no longer under warranty. I don't feel I should have to pay for something that seems to be factory mistake. I've also had an incident of my car shutting off while driving. The ignition turned off while driving only going around a corner. I only had three keys on my ring at this time. This car has been the most dangerous car I've ever owned. The brakes and oil light constantly come on. The air bag light has been on since for over several thousand miles. Also the tire psi sensors are always going bad. The hazard switch hasn't worked in over two years as well. But every time I brought the car in even with a warranty they never fixed any of these problems. What's it have to take for this company to make this car safe?? dos to make my to fix their mistakes seems like someone's going to have to get in a fatal accident for something to be done. Also my back left seatbelt locked up on my son squeezing him and it wouldn't release. The belt had to be cut to get him out.

Driving and suddenly engine light came on, across the radio it said engine power reduced and service traction. It would barely accelerate. It has done this twice in a week. Then after a while the engine light goes off and it will seem ok. At stops though, the car seems very shaky, feeling like it will stall, but hasn't yet!!!

Car accelerates without pushing on the gas, or when I am breaking car speeds up. A chime sounds in the car and I can't find anywhere in the manual about sounds other than the typical seatbelt to low fuel. Very scary!

I was driving about 40 mph then my vehicle started decelerating even as I pressed the gas pedal it would not go faster. It would slow down about 5mph and then accelerate maybe 3mph. I took the vehicle to get inspected but they could not find out what was wrong. It was a very scary experience and I guess my main question is has this happen too anyone else? it has only happened 1 time. I look forward to hearing back from you.

My Pontiac G6 2008 started having acceleration problems. When getting onto the highway the car takes a long time to get up to the 55-65mph speed. I researched this problem on Pontiac G6 forums and many people are having the same problem. The car shouldn't be having this problem so early on. This is a dangerous defect as people are already flying on the highway and when getting behind a car that is taking a long time to get up the matching speed, you are asking for an accident. I've already had people honking their horn at me. This car has serious issues outside of the steering problem reported. Between constant water leaks, actuators failing too early on, speakers blowing out when hardly used, and now this engine issue, I will never get a GM car ever again. For a car that only has 60K on it, these problems should not be happening. This is stuff a 100K+ mile car should have. Poorly designed car that every Pontiac G6 owner is aware of, and now the us government.

My car was involved in the safety recall 12106. I found this information out via internet prior to the recall taking affect by GM. I took my car into the service dept after being stranded for several hours and having my car towed they stated it was just a bad battery and never even looked at the transmission cable and released my car to my father who is not the legal owner, never even spoke to me. The next day I was stranded again with my small children for a couple of hours in the cold. Had my car towed again to the service dept where they finally looked at the transmission cable. Argued with me that my car was not involved in the recall although I knew it was. I paid for it to be fixed $467.41. They released my vehicle to me several days later as they didn't have anyone for a few days to look at the car. Released the first time unfixed and unsafe and not even to the legal owner which is a huge liability. I took my car to les swab and paid over $100 for a new battery that wasn't needed only to be stranded again the very next day. When we took my car in the first time we told them what was wrong due to the recall I found online and they never even looked at the transmission cable per the service manager. This whole process took about a week and a half. They did provide me a rental car for 3 days which they covered. This was a very stressful situation and no one believed me that there was a recall. Recalls should really be put out asap as I happened to have this issue prior to the release date of the recall. I have filed a complaint with the BBB and have been told I should consult with a lawyer for releasing my car unfixed, unsafe and not to the legal owner. I should be compensated for my time, stress and their lack of responsibility for releasing my vehicle unsafe.
