2009 Pontiac G8 Base Sedan 4-door 3.6l - One Owner - Nearly All Highway Miles on 2040-cars
Sundance, Wyoming, United States
|
This full-sized Pontiac G8 is a pleasure to drive and the most comfortable car I've ever owned. It's been driven primarily on Wyoming highways by me when I was working. It's a heavy, super responsive, road hugging, go fast car that is so fun to drive! If you love Pontiacs, given the great condition this car is in and the low mileage, it would make a great collector car. There's been no smoking, pets, or food in the car and the interior is in excellent condition. It's been kept in a garage. There are minor scratches and dings in the paint from normal driving. All service records for the vehicle are available. There have been no mechanical problems with the car and it hasn't been in any accidents. The tires are the original tires and are still good. The battery is brand new. The car has a 3.6 V6 engine, 256 HP and 6300 rpms with automatic transmission including sport mode, rear wheel drive, antilock disc brakes with electonic brake assist. Other standard features include: remote start, remote door lock and trunk release, traction control, stability control, power windows and locks, XM satellite, ONstar, 18 inch wheels, sport dual hood scoops, rear spoiler, and dual exhaust with polished stainless steel tips. The optional features included with this car are: leather seating surfaces, front heated seats, 6 way power seats for both driver and passenger, leather wrapped steering wheel and shift lever, comfort and sound package that includes dual-zone air conditioning, AM/FM stereo with 6 disc CD changer, and premium speaker. The car was purchased new in March, 2009 by me. I bought it in Lander, Wyoming as my personal effort to help save General Motors. ... at least that's what I like to say. When GM decided to discontinue Pontiac production, I decided this car would become an especially good investment eventually. A relatively small number of G-8's were made (only 2008 and part of 2009) and there won't be any more Pontiacs. The original purchase price for this car was $31,045. According to what I've read, G-8s were marketed poorly and the purchase price was actually reduced by $3000 to $5000 before production ended in mid-2009. I expect that in time, though, that the value of G-8's will go up because there's just not a lot of them available. I wouldn't be selling the car if I didn't have to but I have no need for it since I've retired and moved and have no place to keep it. Until now it has always been kept stored in a garage. In the past 18 months, I've only taken it on the road for a short drive a couple times. |

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern
Mon, 07 Nov 2011General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.
GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.
