Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The exhaust pipe tip on my 2006 pontiac g6 (standard model with v6) has a sharp edge that can cut and injure someone working on this vehicle. the sharpness of the tip and its location near the rear bumper can easily injure someone who is hand washing the car. i lacerated my middle finger while washing the car in this area with a sponge. it was almost deep enough to require stitches. if i didn't have immediate travel plans, i would have gone to the doctor and had it stitched up. *jb
