What owners wrote

To whom it may concern: on november 03, 2017, my 2006 pontiac g6 gtp, automobile was involved in an accident that flipped and crashed and causing serious injuries. The vehicle was going straight on the hwy and the car lost steering power and the car went to the right of the hwy. I was surprised to learn at that time there has been several recalls issued on this vehicle.

Reported at 16,700 miles, November 2017 CrashInjury

On approximately 13 different occasions over the last 2 months (while on a city street at 25MPH, and while on a state highway with a speed limit of 65MPH) all instrument panel gauges go crazy and suddenly dropped to zero. 'power steering' message and 'low fuel' light (had a full tank of gas) was shown on the radio message center, along with warning sounds, and 'error' was displayed in the odometer window.
