Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Jan 27, 2010
Reported on Jan 27, 2010
| VEHICLE IS A 2006 PONTIAC G6 GT, DRIVING AT ANY SPEED A WARNING MESSAGES COMES ON THE RADIO ABOUT THE POWER STEERING, THEN A CHIME ALERTS YOU LIKE A DOOR CHIME. AFTER WORDS THE POWER STEERING ASSIST GOES OUT AND THE DRIVER LOSES ALL CONTROL TO STEER THE CAR BASICALLY THE CAR IS UNMANAGABLE TO STEER SAFELY. WHEN THE CAR IS ABLE TO BE STEERED IT PULLS HARD TO ONE DIRECTION AND IS VERY SHAKY. THIS HAS OCCURRED 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 DAYS RESULTING IN NOT BEING ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. NO REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE YET TO THE VEHICLE, I HAVE MADE AN APPOINTMENT ON 2/1/2010 FOR SERVICE AT A PONTIAC DEALER. I CALLED GM AND OPENED A CLAIM ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AS WELL. NO CRASH OR INJURIES WERE INVOLVED WITH THESE INCIDENTS BUT I FEEL THAT THERE IS A HIGH RISK OF CRASH OR INJURIES WITH THIS SITUATION. *CN | |
