Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Apr 18, 2009
Reported on Apr 18, 2009
| AFTER DRIVING FOR A LITTLE WHILE MY POWER STEERING GOES COMPLETELY OUT CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. THANK GOD I HAVE NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT..YET. I'VE HAD IT IN TO THE DEALER ONCE, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I WAS INSTRUCTED THAT NEXT TIME IT HAPPENS TO DRIVE IMMEDIATELY TO THE DEALERSHIP WITHOUT TURNING THE CAR OFF. APPARENTLY SINCE IT'S ELECTRIC STEERING WHENEVER THE CAR IS SHUT OFF IT RESETS ITSELF. LAST NIGHT IT HAPPENED TWICE. OF COURSE, THE DEALERSHIP WAS CLOSED. I'M HONESTLY AFRAID TO BE IN MY CAR. I HAVE ANXIETY JUST WAITING FOR THE PROBLEM TO OCCUR. THIS MORNING MY HOPE IS TO JUST DRIVE AROUND AND WAIT FOR THE PROBLEM TO OCCUR, DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO PROVE TO THEM THE PROBLEM, THEN TRY AND FIND A WAY TO WORK. I HOPE THIS WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. I ALREADY HAD TO PAY TO HAVE A NEW STEERING COLUMN INSTALLED. I'M STARTING TO THINK THAT THERE'S A BIGGER ISSUE GOING ON WITH G6'S. *TR | |
