Hi all,
I own a 2007 Pontiac G6 with about 137k miles on it. I had two recalls done back in November, one being for the brake lamps that affected the cruise control. Yesterday, my husband noticed that the cruise control started working intermittently. He'd be able to turn it on, then it would turn off while driving down the freeway. He took the switch off and found that there is a battery in it (what??) and replaced it (it's a really basic model that originally had no cruise control, so the dealership installed a two button system onto the steering wheel; not sure if that makes a difference). Irregardless of the battery change, the cruise is doing the same thing. Is it possible that the recall repair is now failing and needs to be redone? Or is there something else going on with the cruise control?
Another issue I've noticed is when coming to a complete stop, the brakes seem... weak I guess would be the best way to describe it. I have allow extra time to brake or it feels as though I won't stop in time. When I do stop, the car bounces forward and then back. I had the passenger side control arm replaced two years ago during a brake pad and rotor change because it was loose.
I hope my descriptions aren't too confusing. Thanks in advance!
