Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Oct 01, 2008
Reported on Oct 01, 2008
| I PURCHASED MY G-6 USED. IMMEDIATELY I NOTICED A POPPING IN THE STEERING. IT SEEMED TO GET WORSE. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE PLACE I PURCHASED IT. THEY STATED THAT IS NORMAL FOR ELECTRIC ASSIST STEERING. I WENT TO THE GMC DEALER, THEY STATED THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. THE CLUNKING GOT SO BAD, I RETURNED TO THE GMC DEALER AT WHICH TIME THEY SAID THAT THE STEERING ASSEMBLY ET AL HAD TO BE REPLACED. THEY REPLACED IT UNDER A FACTORY WARRANTY AT THAT TIME APPROXIMATELY 1 YEAR AGO. ABOUT 1 MONTH AGO, THE SAME THING STARTED AGAIN. THEY TOLD ME AGAIN, NOTHING IS WRONG. THE STEERING CLUNKS, FEELS LIKE IT STICKS AND IS VERY HARD TO CONTROL THE CAR. I JUST HOPE THAT NO ONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED BECAUSE GMC/PONTIAC WILL NOT DO A RECALL TO CHANGE THE SYSTEM TO A BETTER SAFER DESIGN. *TR | |
