I see you were unsure about an "extended warranty" you had -- was this one of our General Motors Protection Plans? If so, please email us the last 8 digits of your VIN and we can get you the expiration date and mileage (if you had wanted this information).

I had the same problem with my 2006 Pontiac G6. The dealership I went to refused to help telling me it was all in my head. Go have a compression test done. It's a possibility it's the catalytic converter.. this will also throw the mass airflow censor, and O2 censor off which in turn causing the car not to shift at a high RPM.

Hello frustragedg6,
 
I saw in your next post that your car needed to be towed - I am so sorry that you are in this difficult situation! I checked your VIN and see that you are just outside of the powertrain warranty by time (just over a month) -- please send us an email to socialmediagm.com with more information (name/Edmunds username, phone and address, last 8 of your VIN and current mileage, and the name of your dealership). Have you taken it anywhere yet?

frustratedg6,
 
If you were to email us that information, we could get a Service Request set up through Customer Assistance and could evaluate any available options with your dealership as they work on repairing the transmission. While I can't make any guarantees up front as to the end result of this investigation, we would be thorough.
 
All the best,

#200 of 232 06 G6 stuck in park, cruise wont work by zatarra25

Apr 08, 2012 (2:15 pm)

I called the Pontiac helpline to find out if there was an active recall for my G6, last 8 of my VIN 64251730. The automated system said no there is no active recall, however I found one online issued in 2009 for an issue that causes the owner to have to use extra force to shift from park and for when you cruise control works sporadically. I am very frustrated as I would like to be able to speak or have my car seen by a mechanic without having to pay for endless diagnostics if this was a recall issue. I have googled this problem on the internet and found scores and scores of G6's with this exact issue, but cannot get a live person on the phone to discuss this issue with. Any suggestions?
 
Unhappy G6 Owner,
Rebekah

Good morning Rebekah,
 
I'm sorry that you are experiencing these difficulties with your G6. I looked up your VIN in our system and am not seeing any open recalls on your vehicle at this time.
 
What is your plan of action from here? We're happy to work with you through any diagnostic processes, if you like.
 
Best,

Was it ever fixed and was it the solenoid?
I'm bringing my '07 G6 in tomorrow for same problem. Bought the car in 2009 and have brought it back to same dealership 4 times. They have not been able to replicate the problem and no lights come on when it happens (to the best of my knowledge). It startles you when it happens...like you're being rear-ended.
