Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Jan 08, 2010
Reported on Jan 08, 2010
| I CURRENTLY OWN A PONTIAC G6 2006. I STARTED TO EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTIES WHEN DRIVING IT. ONE DAY MY STEERING WHEEL JUST LOCKUP AND IT WAS WHILE I WAS TRYING TO MAKE A TURN, LUCKY THERE WASN'T TOO MUCH TRAFFIC AND I WAS ABLE TO STAY THERE UNTIL MY CAR WAS TOWED. THAT WAS MY FIRST TIME, THEN IT CONTINUED EVERY NOW AND THEN. THE WHEEL WILL LOCKUP AND I WILL TRY TO TURN OFF THE CAR TO RESET THE COMPUTER BUT IT WILL NOT DO IT. I KEPT ON DRIVING THE CAR SINCE THAT'S MY ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION AND I JUST PRETTY MUCH USE IT TO GO TO WORK. I RECENTLY SAW A RECALL ON PONTIAC G6 BUT FOR 2005. MY CAR IS HAS THE SAME DEFECTS AS THE ONE IN THE RECALL EXCEPT ITS 2006. APPARENTLY THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE WHO OWN PONTIAC CARS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS BUT WE HAVE TO COME OUT OF POCKET TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I AM CURRENTLY PREGNANT AND I FEEL UNSAFE TO DRIVE MY CAR DUE TO NOT KNOWING WHEN IS THIS PROBLEM GOING TO OCCUR AGAIN, BESIDES THE FACT IT IS DANGEROUS FOR ANYONE. *TR | |
