Description of the problem | I was driving my 2007 g6 when someone pulled up beside me and honked their horn to get my attention. The man informed me that my brake lights were on while i was driving but turned off when i went to brake for the red light. I took my car to be fixed at a shop near my home, he replaced the sensor in the brake pedal. When i left his shop it worked perfectly fine. Working fine only last about 8 months when i noticed the reflection of my brake lights in traffic signs when i wasn't pushing on the brake i realized i once again was having the same issue. Since i have left that first shop in 2010, i have taken my g6 to 2 different shops within the last 3 years paying upwards of $500. 00 to get the same issue resolved each time. The last time i took my car to the gmc dealership (2 weeks ago); they informed me that i have been there in june of 2011, september of 2012 and now june of 2013. The head technician told me he "has no idea what the issue is". He unplugged everything and plugged it all back in and they worked fine but the issue is obviously not resolved. |
