Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Mar 23, 2009
Reported on Mar 23, 2009
| I HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION DUE TO A FAULTY INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT THAT WAS PUT INTO MY VEHICLE DURING MANUFACTURING. IT IS BECOMING DIFFICULT TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. IT'S ALSO FEELS VERY UNSAFE WHEN I MAKE A TURN. IT FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING TO GET STUCK AND FLIP. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES AS WELL AS SEVERAL OTHERS. I HAVE DISCOVERED THEY MADE A NEW INTERMEDIATE SHAFT SINCE THE ORIGINAL WAS A BAD DESIGN. I WAS JUST QUOTED SLIGHTLY LESS THAN $300 TO GET THIS NEW PART INSTALLED. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY I HAVE TO PAY FOR AN EXTREMELY COMMON, FAULTY PART WHEN THIS SHOULD CLEARLY BE RECALLED. *TR | |
