Description of the problem	Upon the purchase of a brand new pontiac g6 in 2008, i have had several problems from about the 5000 mile mark. It began with my tail lights staying on while driving, no matter what speed. When i apply the brakes, they would go off and come on while driving. A month later steering column started to knock when making turns, the dealership has regreased the shaft and the noise went away for a few weeks and has continued to make the noise. The dealer said it will not hurt anything and will not regrease it. All of these issues have been happening for 4 consecutive years. I have replaced several head lamps, once about every 2 months and wiring harness because they melt. The power steering started to go out in november of 2012 and several times since; it locks up and i am unable to drive it for a while and it just magically fixes itself. I had trouble putting my vehicle in park in january 2013 and my key would not come out of the ignition. I left it in for a few days and it came back out. Yesterday, february 23, 2013 the airbag service light has come on. We have checked all fuses, and there seems to be none out. The vehicle has never been in any accident not even a dent on the vehicle. I have never recieved a recall for the vehicle either. Maybe they are just not getting to me?
