  Steering Wheel Problems - 2005 Pontiac G6
  By Carla - March 20 - 9:53 pm

  My husband and I purchased the g6 gt less than one month ago. It was love at first sight until it was time to parallel park on the streets of New York/New Jersey (which is a must living in the City). After a few left and right turns the wheel suddenly got extremely stiff that it was nearly impossible for my 63" 200 lbs husband to turn the steering wheel any further to park properly. Took the car back to the dealer to have it tested and he found the same problem. He contacted GM about problem waiting for a response since it seem to be a manfacture problem. The dealer also test another car but the wheels were not as stiff.

  my g-6 - 2005 Pontiac G6
  By wflo - March 19 - 1:46 pm

  I will not buy another G-6 Pontiac, because of all the problems I have had with it! The body style allows the sand from the road to sand blast the lower parts of the car, especially the flare on the rear quarters! Had it painted at 17,000, and now at 35000, it is the same as it was! Have had the brakes worked on 3 times, and again another problem with them! Have contacted GM, and they just as much said sorry about that, we will not buy it back!They need a new design, or some type of lowers body protection! Plus a larger brake disc and pads!

  new till now - 2005 Pontiac G6
  By Canuck - March 11 - 8:53 pm

  Had for Sunfires and son totaled the one that was paid off. Needed a car and was glad I stepped up to the G6. After reading many reviews I can agree with most all. Love it and fun to drive; drove across Canada 5 times. As well experienced many of the problems - Electric steering had to be replaced (warranty), brakes need new rotors, or at least turned spring and fall. I do myself so more just a pain. During the winter the inside of the windshield freezes. Oil changes have been regular when told by the info center; about every 7000 miles. No problems driving in heavy snow (Canadian 30 cm - about 12 inches) with OEM tires. Many 4x4s were getting stuck; might be more driving ability.

  fast and fun - 2005 Pontiac G6
  By cdog13junior - March 8 - 5:10 pm

  I have a 2004 Pontiac Grand AM and I recently bought the base model G6 I have really enjoyed the car since I bought it in late Feb of this year. The handling is so nice, quick and responsive. I have found that just the difference in one year that Pontiac has came out with some really nice innovations like the optional assist a steer. I have no complaints about the car and now have 1700 miles and love the car. Will buy one again anyday

  Wonderful! - 2005 Pontiac G6
  By kisseshoney8 - February 24 - 10:13 pm

  I have been test driving every SUV, Sedan, and coupe out on the market. Honda, Toyota, Saturn, Mit, MB, BMW, Lexus, Acura were some that I have driven. After test driving those and not getting what I want in the vehicle or finding the color I want, I decided to test drive the G6. After just sitting in it I feel in love. Best car for the money and loads of standard features. It looks like a MB at night which is awesome. I am so glad I bought this car. It was the best decision ever. Thanks GM for making a great car. BTW go with the silver with black interior.

  G6 Does Well - 2005 Pontiac G6
  By Highlander - December 30 - 4:23 am

  I bought my G6 (non-GT) a few months ago now and wanted to express how pleased I am with my purchase. After much shopping and test driving every vehicle of this type (mid size, reasonably priced sedan) this was the first one that I was excited about after the test drive. It is fun to drive, looks good, feels good and the price was competitive. I have had no mechanical issues or other problems.

  great car - 2005 Pontiac G6
  By B MAC - December 8 - 10:30 pm

  i recently purchased a GT G6 and I have to say that this car is awesome. You step on it and u fly, and with the clutchless manual you can redline it in every gear. The only thing that I have had a problem with so far has been the 6 disc in-dash cd changer. One day it was working fine then I got in my car and went to crank up the tunes and it wouldnt play the cd. CD CHANGER ERROR appeared on the display screen and then when i turned off the car, the stereo remained on. I plan on taking it back to the dealer for under warantee repair ASAP. other then that minor thing, its a fun car.

  4Dr GT, Great Car for Price - 2005 Pontiac G6
  By Mark - December 8 - 4:40 am

  Im a 19 year old male in college, my first car was a 97 Grand Am GT-had nothing but problems with, got rid of after 2 1/2 years! I was at the Pontiac dealership yet again with my Grand Am and the G6 caught my eye from the sales lot, mainly the price tag, $14,995 with only 8,720 miles Certified! I test drove it and drove it home the next day! I find it very comfortable considering Im 64" even with 5 people in the car and it still has plenty of pick-up. I drive about 100 miles a day, mostly highway and average 25 mpg @ 75 mph w/ the 3.5L V6 which was the only way I would get one. It is responsive with plenty of power, a smooth, quiet ride and great handling

  Surprising - 2005 Pontiac G6
  By Bob - October 8 - 11:43 am

  One of the reasons we bought this car is because of the massive discounts GM offered. I dont understand the current trimlines, really (mine is officially called the "6-cylinder"? okay...) but I think this will all make more sense in 2006 once more models and trims appear. Anyway, this car is pretty amazing. We didnt get ABS, and Im regretting it now, even though the standard tires handle quite well in snow and ice. The dealer had 10 G6s, but none of the base models had ABS or remote start, which was unfortunate. The electric-assist steering is a bit strange at low speeds, sometimes making the wheel light as a feather in the middle of a turn. Otherwise, I have no complaints!
