Faulty Rotors

CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2009 is starting to have the same problems as previous model years, including the headlights blowing out due to bad connectors.

The wiring harness connections aren't a big deal to replace, as long as your dealer or mechanic doesn't charge you an arm & a leg to "diagnose" the problem.

Yep, the rotors too! Guess how often they need replaced?!.... TOO DAMN OFTEN! Literally every few months! Rotors, pads, everything....

Why do I still have this car? I really don't know.... Why would anyone else want to buy it?! When I try to trade it in they're probably just going to tell me to set it on fire and roll it in the river..... It's THAT bad.

G6 2.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 400 miles

The OEM brake rotors were pitted from the factory. Had the dealer turn the front rotors after 500 miles. Had the dealer turn them again after 15,000 miles. I'm trying to order non-China front rotors from EBC Brakes, and they sent the wrong size the first time (I'm waiting on replacements). This vehicle is outfitted with various size brake rotors, depending on the trim package. Make sure to measure the rotors to get the right replacements. The 2.4 motor with 17" wheels it probably uses 11.6" front rotors vs. 16" wheels uses 10.8" rotors.
