Used 2007 Pontiac G6 GTP 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 6A) Consumer Reviews
I spent as much in repairs as I did on the car
So I had this car for almost 2 years... and from the week after I bought it... there were nothing but problems. For years I struggled with keeping the check engine light off, they kept saying it was the thermostat and it needed to be replaced.... this was like once every month... then I started having issues with the ac... and I live in texas... black car with black interior on a 103° day in the summer is not acceptable... and the worst part was that they didnt know why it was happening... as far as I could tell it was some how connected with the check engine light because if it was off I had cool air... therefore in the summer I really had to change the thermostat gage once a month... Next in the winter months the heater would just stop working for no identifiable reason. After that also in the middle of winter, I couldn't get the car to switch on... I had to wiggle the steering wheel, jiggle the shifter, and turn the key simultaneously... one day I was stuck at work for 3 hours after closing to get the damn thing to start running.... the colder it was the more of a [non-permissible content removed] it was to get it to start. Next the catalytic converter had to be replaced a 2,000 dollar job..... I poured another 1,500 on the car trying to figure out why the breaks would stick and I would get stuck on the side of the road... not to mention the several times I almost died because there were no ABS breakes and no traction control... and a big down side for me was the speaker system was GARBAGE. Pros to this car are Good gas mileage It is a sporty looking car Comfortable to ride in for long periods And although it was a four banger it was pretty quick (Dont recommend going over 90 mph... the entire car shakes) The car only lasted me to 2017-2018... The entire break system got stuck, so I couldnt drive it and it would have cost 5,000 to fix it...so I let it go. As of 2021 I still have resentments... And I recommend staying as far away as you can from this car, it's a [non-permissible content removed].

2007 Pont g6 gtp
Picked out the GTP on test drive. Nice handling car. Kinda cramped for a tall person. I'm 6'4" and can drive in it somewhat comfortably. Headlights maybe need a little more power or maybe adjusted to cover more range. Moonroof and Monsoon radio were nice add-ons.

Very Disappointed!
This car, in my opinion, is very cheaply made. The panoramic sunroof began rattling within a month from buying it. It's been in the garage 5 times to be repaired. GM even replaced the entire module during our last visit. Unfortunately, replacing the window did not help. The rattling and wind noise was so loud that we finally gave up and traded it in. We now have a 2007 Ford Five Hundred and absolutely love it! We've always been GM fans, but no longer.

If I didn't have a mechanic boyfriend I'd be in a lot of debt. Don't just don't.

Such a Shame
It is such a shame that this car is so awful, I love this car, but it is a rolling junk heap. It looks great, and it is a good thing that the monsoon stereo is awesome, b/c it drowns out alot of the popping and cracking the car makes, from the dash to the, rear end to the steering column, to the sunroof, oh my at the noises!!! I am so disappointed, I need to trade it in, but I can't b/c I am so upside down in the payment. Dealerships and GM do nothing to resolve issues. I really love the car but it has so many problems, gas smell inside, stalling out, back firing, everything rattles, brakes, rotors, you name it. I have always driven Chevy's and love them, I will never own another Pontiac!!
