#23 of 32 G6 Door sporadically won't open by lmcgill27

My driver-side door won't open. This has happened about a dozen times. It doesn't matter if the car has been locked or not. The button can be up. You can try to open the door from the inside--nothing works. I have to get in on the passenger side, hop over the console & then slide under the steering wheel. Usually after driving for awhile, the door will be able to be opened from the inside. But a few times, I've also had to climb out thru the passenger side. The dealership has tried to fix it many different ways but nothing has worked. Pontiac insists that this hasn't happened to any other cars. Please post if it has happened to you.
thanks!

dienerd,
 
Were you planning on having the vehicle looked at by your local dealership? Please keep me posted when the issue has been taken care of.
 
Thank you,
Caron, GM Customer Service

I have so many problems with this car and I am not sure if I should trade it in or try to get some of this stuff fixed...
 
1. The heater doesnt work- It will blow hot air as long as i am pressing the gas. But if i stop back to cold air it goes.
 
2. The interior light doesnt work
3. I have to spend 3-5 mintues getting the car out of park.
4. I have replaced the breaks 4 or 5 times.
5. I cant get the keys out of the ignition majority of the time. I have to wait and leave my keys in the car hoping no one will steal it and go back a few hours later to get them to come out.
6. After i take it out of park, it makes a loud shifting noise as if I am on a steep hill.
7. The windows do not go down at all anymore
 
Help....I have 97,740 miles on this car and i have had it for 4 years. Cant i still go after previous recall's and get them to fix some of the electrical problems..? Or should i just replace it or can it be fixed for a reasonable amount ????
Help and suggestions

#30 of 32 oil consumption by jaybird21

my 07 g6 convertible has started consuming a quart of oil every1500 miles.my dealer says thats "within specs." I bought the car new and have had it serviced only by goodwrench.this seems excessive to me. Im at 50k miles and why would this start now and not when the car was new?

I believe you have the 3.5 engine. I had one in a Malibu for 40K miles and it never burned a drop of oil with 5K oil changes.
GM will always say high oil consumption is OK, saves GM from some repairs.
If no leaks probably piston rings, guessing though.
