Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Sept 01, 2008
Reported on Sept 01, 2008
| VEHICLE TYPE IS 2006 PONTIAC G6. FOR ABOUT 3 MONTHS UPON STARTING THE CAR IN THE MORNING THE STEERING WHEEL IS LOCKED - THERE IS NO POWER STEERING WHAT SO EVER. AFTER A FEW SECONDS THE STEERING WHEEL UNLOCKS. THE LAST FEW WEEKS HAVE BEEN MORE CONCERNING. IT SEEMED LIKE WHEN A LEFT TURN WAS MADE THE CAR DINGS AND THE MESSAGE POWER STEERING COMES UP ON THE RADIO. NOW 2 DAYS IN A ROW WE WERE TRAVELING STRAIGHT AND RECEIVED THE POWER STEERING MESSAGE . THE CAR HAS NEVER LOST POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING BUT I AM VERY CONCERNED UPON READING OTHER CONSUMER COMMENTS. MY CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW AND HAS 12K MILES ON IT. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY REPLACED U JOINT ( I BELIEVE) SINCE THEY SAID IT WAS SEIZING . RECEIPT STATES INTERMEDIATE SHAFT REPLACED. STILL HAVING PROBLEM -PONTIAC DEALERSHIP IS AT A LOSS. *TR | |
