2007 Pontiac Grand Prix owner complaints

Approximately after 3 minutes of driving the head lights go out. The high beams still work. If the car is off for 5 minutes it seems to reset, but will only last 3 minutes again.

When using my turn signal (primarily/ consistently when signaling a right hand turn) my bright lights come on and it is quite difficult to get them to turn off. Occurs occasionally when signaling a left hand turn. This happens when moving or stationary.

Contacted dealer regarding the recalled part. I was notified that they did not have the part to fix the issue and that they would call. Over 2 months later and still not contact. *tr

When leaving a friends house our low beam headlamps failed to illuminate. I tried to manually make them come on and they still would not illuminate. I still had high beams, tail lamps, and side marker lamps. I turned on my fog lamps to make it home with lighting to the front. *js

My low beam head lights are beginning to fail. My driver side headlight no longer turns on and I believe it be the failure of the hood lamp driver module. After replacing all bulbs and checking all fuses. I have concluded it is this relay that is causing my daytime running lights to fail. There is documentation that this is a known failure but my car is not showing up on the recall list.

While driving, especially when the temp is under 40 degrees. I randomly get error with traction control off and reduced engine power. I have trouble accelerating and keeping speed. Which has been very dangerous to get to a safe spot on the expressway to pull off, when my speed suddenly changes. This has been happening for the last 3 years during the cold months and I have got items cleaned and sensors changed to no end.

I had been having a few problems with the headlights. The would just randomly turn off at night. They only worked when they wanted to. On the morning of october 17th I stopped at the store on my way to school and once I came out of the store (about 10 minutes later) I smelt something burning and noticed smoke was coming from under the hood. When the hood was popped the relay box was completely melted and the wiring harness had a fire starting to ignite. I caught it right after it started. Gm claims they know nothing of it and is refusing to cover the costs. After reading many instances on this I would like help in getting something started. There is a serious defect with this vehicle. Thankfully my child was already dropped off at school and no one was hurt. I know gm knows of this issue a

Campaign id number15v-519 recall 14291 the left headlight keeps burning out and this recall is suppose to fix that situation but the local dealers say no solution has been found.

Random misfire code won't go away since weeks after purchasing my vehicle which was then under warranty.

They also performed the key recall the code keeps coming & no mechanic or dealership can tell me why but they keep taking my money for a temporary fix.the dealership said I needed a new catalytic converter. I have replaced 5 sensors, the ignition coil module twice, the catalytic converter, all six fuel injectors, the fuel pump and had 3 major tune ups.

Crank shafts position sensor causes the engine to shut off while driving down the road. Resulting in the loss of power steering, and power brakes. This occurs at all speeds from stop and go traffic at less than 5 MPH to highway speeds of 70 MPH +. This is a very dangerous issue. Adding the recall piece to the key did nothing to remedy the issue. This has been occurring for 2 years now.
