Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Nov 10, 2009
Reported on Nov 10, 2009
| AT FIRST THE PROBLEM WAS RANDOM ONLY OCCURRING AFTER PUTTING THE CAR IN REVERE. STEADILY THE PROBLEM BECAME MORE AND MORE COMMON. CHANGING FROM HAPPENING EVERY COUPLE OF WEEKS TO HAPPENING ALMOST EVERY DAY. THE PINNACLE WAS WHEN I WAS DRIVING HOME ONE NIGHT AND LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WHEN THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN RESULTING IN THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS OF DAMAGE. THE CAR NOW HAS POWER STEERING FAILURE EVERY TIME I TURN LEFT, AND OR PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE. THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM IS TO TURN OFF THE CAR AND TURN IT BACK ON. UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE NOT HAD ANY PARTS REPLACED OR HAD ANYTHING DONE TO FIX THE PROBLEM, DUE TO THE COST OF THE REPLACEMENT. SO UNTIL THERE IS EITHER A RECALL, OR A FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE WAY TO REPAIR THE CAR, I'M DRIVING A VERY UNSAFE CAR. *TR | |
