The 2007 Pontiac G6 has 2 recalls, the most serious involving the passenger seat sensor that detects whether a child is in the front seat — a calibration error can cause the right front airbag to deploy when a child is present, rather than suppressing it as intended.
The second recall covers electric power steering, which can suddenly stop providing assist while driving. When this happens, the steering wheel becomes significantly harder to turn, particularly at low speeds, raising the risk of a crash.
