2006 Pontiac Grand Prix Vehicle speed control Problems

“My power steering went out and when you try to go over 40 the car lunges forward and has a hard time shifting and will continue while in cruise control. I already had work done on the fuel line cause the line was clogged and the vehicle would lunge forward cause the fuel wasn't getting pushed through. My power steering went out after my boyfriend parked it. He only noticed it when he tried driving away and he couldn't turn the wheel like usual. The cruise control does its thing while in motion. Also the headlamps! …”

“While driving display flashed about 4 alerts, from traction system, ABS brakes engine would shut off, and I would lose power steering. This happened around a dozen times in the span of a week. I was able to pull the car over, by using all of my strength on the steering wheel, and shut the car off, then restart it. I had to take it in to the mechanic and they had to replace the computer, and some other parts costing over $800.”

“While driving car shuts off dic states starting disabled due to throttle control. Reduced engine power . I took it to mccarthy dealership in lees summit mo they supposedly fixed recall-key only but the recall#14350 states dealers will install 2 key rings & an I insert in the key slot or a coner over the key head on all ignition keys it ran ok for a while then started doing it again. Took it back 12/8/2016 & was told to do a diagnostic ck it would cost 130. Was told the recall was for the keys only not the ignition. …”

Currently at a GM dealership to solve issue. However GM knows about this faulty issue and refuses to issue a recall after many have spent thousands to fix transmissions! I am next this is terrible. What if it completely goes while I have my family in the car? Are they then going to fix? Gm needs to stand behind the consumer and fix this issue.”

“On more than one occasion, my car hesitated after stopping at an red light. Upon take off while other cars are behind me if feels like my car gears are stuck . I initially thought perhaps it was the weather or maybe my brakes . No, not the problem because my brakes have been checked and the weather is not always a culprit, I even have new tires . The problem is very scary when your grandchildren are buckle up in the back seat and your car hesitate, transmission slipping not changing gears. This has happened far to many times for my comfort and safety of myself and my family. …”
