Passenger side headlight mount shorted out. After doing research, this seems that it is not a localized problem, as numerous online resources show that this is an ongoing problem. This is a gross safety issue that's been prevalent for at least four years, and GMC has failed to do anything about it.

The headlights are constantly going on and off by themselves. Sometimes if I bang on the headlight cover it will pop back on. This happens when the car is running, in drive, moving or parked. I have replaced the bulbs and even ordered a replacement kit from Pontiac for one side. I still have the issues. I've seen several other G6's with headlights out before I realized it wasn't just my car.

The driver side headlight on my vehicle constantly comes on and off. On more that several occasions I've had to hit my headlight and sometimes it comes on and sometimes it doesn't want to work. I've replaced bulb after bulb and come to realize that the issue is the connector. The factory connector has 3 wires and the connector that sold in my local auto part store has 2 wires. I've been driving on the city street or highway and the driver side headlight could be on and all of a sudden goes off.

My break lights stay on when I am driving and they go off when I hit the breaks. They will come back on once my foot is on the peddle for a few seconds. I have four children under the age of 11 that ride with me on a daily basis. I have an appointment to get this fixed tomorrow but wanted to cover everything before hand, just in case.

Both driver and passenger side low beam headlights continuously burn out every 2-3 weeks and when checked the driver side low beam headlight connector is melted so now I am unable to replace the low beam headlights at all and am forced to drive with high beams. High beams and turn signals are not affected. I this is the same issue that has been recalled in other GM cars but for some reason my model is not included even though it is the same issue and not sure why it isn't.

- Saginaw, MI, USA

Drivers side headlight was out. Replaced it, went back out within a week. Have read several complaints about this on websites, and it seems that General Motors is aware of this problem for years, but no recall. Why" replacing bulbs is costly, and not to mention dangerous when you thinks you have headlights and don't. also cause for police to pull U over. Why has GM done nothing to help its customers"

I have changed mydriver side head light 3 times since December, everytime it's changed it blows within 3days. On my attempt to change it today 7/24/15, I noticed the wire harness is melted.while researching parts and cost for repair I noticed a lot of complaints about the driverside head light wire harness melting. I will definitely have to get it replaced, im sure its a fire hazzard and I would hate to be driving and my car catch fire with my babies and I in the car.

- Chesapeake, VA, USA

I have replaced the passenger side low beam headlight 3 times in approximately 6 months and its out again. I've already gotten a warning for driving with it out but I can't afford to keep replacing it or to replace whatever is causing it. I see several other complaints about the same problem so why hasn't this been recalled?

It was called to my attention at a gas station that the passenger side headlamps on my Pontiac G6 were not on. I was traveling & away from home and felt it necessary to seek repairs asap at a repair facility in the area. After considerable effort we found a repair shop who reluctantly agreed to check the problem out. After a considerable effort, well too much it seemed, to access the headlamp bulbs he gained access and discovered the wiring was burned too badly for repairs and informed us this was a repair that should be done by a Pontiac dealer.and there was likely a recall in effect to correct the problem. The next city we came to we asked for directions to a repair shop who might be willing to attempt repairs. This shop spliced in some new wiring and a new connector and the lamps were once again burning. However the repair lasted only 90 days and again it was found to be burned wiring. In talking to other Pontiac G6 owners I have discovered this is 'the nature of the beast" and something most owners have experienced. This failure makes this car unsafe for anyone, ,particularly my wife or other family members to operate.

We own a Pontiac G6. We purchased the vehicle after we had run a carfax report and it was indicated that the vehicle would be safe for our family to drive. We had a front headlight burn out. (high and low beams) we thought that this would be an easy fix to make, and we would just be able to change the headlight bulb. Imagine our surprise when our mechanic found out that the entire front headlight assembly electrical wires were burned to a crisp. (it appears that the headlight lighting is too close to the actual engine compartment.) the entire repair cost for one headlight was $361 after discount. We are very concerned that this could happen again and cause a serious accident. Having a reliable lighting system on a vehicle is absolutely essential. We also looked on the internet about the issue we were having and noticed that quite a few similar vehicle owners (at least 24) have experienced the same issue. Why is the vehicle maker not required to place a recall for this issue? Pontiac's answer, according to other vehicle owners, is for the owner to pay the cost of the repairs. We do not believe that that should be the case. We believe that Pontiac should step up to the plate and correct the engineering designers flawed design and issue a recall.
