Description of the problem | I have had several issues with the exterior lighting of my vehicle. First the headlights on the drivers side went out and i replaced the bulb, then passenger side has went out and the bulb has been replaced. I took my vehicle to our local autozone and at first we thought the light bulb needed replaced but after wiggling around the wires it started working.. This has happened to me on more than one occasion. As of this year i've changed both headlights twice and the exterior brake light and as of today i have another headlight that has blown.. I got online and notices several complaints from different people on the pontiac g6 that are having the same issue as me and there is no correction for this fixed except having the whole lighting assembly changed with the wiring which is a 700 or more dollar fix. Now my highbeams are doing the samething. I've contacted gm about this issue and have not received a response as of yet. This is very disturbing for me because i have been stopped by the police before and given tickets because of this and this is starting to become a financial burden for me. |
