Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Jan 01, 2010
Reported on Jan 01, 2010
| I OWN A PONTIAC G6, 2006. I BOUGHT IT A YEAR AND 4 MONTHS AGO. I THOUGHT IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST CARS EVER! LOOKED CUTE, DRIVES REALLY NICE. UNTIL A MONTH AGO WHEN THE DASH WOULD ALERT ME POWER STEERING . SO, OF COURSE I WENT OUT TO BUY SOME POWER STEERING FLUID , AFTER SEARCHING COUNTLESSLY I THEN FOUND OUT THERE IS NONE. IT IS ALL ELECTRICAL, WHICH IN ALL HONESTLY IS THE STUPIDEST THING I HAVE EVER HEARD. BUT HEY, WHAT A GREAT WAY TO MAKE SOME BIG BUCKS WHEN IT GOES OUT. I WAS BACKING UP ONE NIGHT AFTER WORK, AND MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT. I ENDED UP BACKING INTO A CAR BECAUSE I COULDN'T CONTROL THE STEERING! NOW EVERYDAY, POWER STEERING ALERTS ME A COUPLE TIMES WHILE I DRIVE. I JUST WONDER IF ITS GOING TO GO OUT AGAIN. I ALSO WONDER IF IT WILL TAKE SOMEONE'S LIFE. TODAY GM ISSUED A RECALL ON PONTIAC G5'S AND CHEVY COBALTS POWER STEERING COLUMNS, I COULDN'T BELIEVE THEY DID NOT RECALL ONE ON THE G6. I AM TRULY ANGRY ABOUT THIS, AND WITHOUT A DOUBT WILL NEVER BY A CAR FROM GM AGAIN. THANKS :) *TR | |
