Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Feb 19, 2010
Reported on Feb 19, 2010
| MY COMPLAINT IS IN REFERENCE TO # PE07023. ON 2/19/2010, I BEGAN TO RECEIVE ISSUES WITH THE POWER STEERING OF MY PONTIAC G6 2005 GT. THE STEERING BECAME OVERBEARING TO THE POINT WHERE I COULD NOT TURN AND WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND WAITED ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND RESTARTED IT . AT THAT POINT I WAS ABLE TO MOVE MY VEHICLE AND BEING DRIVING AGAIN. AFTER BEING EXTREMELY FRIGHTENED I MADE HOME AND BEGAN TO DO RESEARCH ON THIS ISSUE. I FOUND NUMBERS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM ALONG WITH YOUR WEBSITE. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT GM HAS NOT FILED A RECALL ON AN ISSUE THAT IS SO DANGEROUS. I UNDERSTAND THAT THEY WERE GOING THROUGH BANKRUPTCY BUT AT WHOSE EXPENSE? I HAVE NOT GOTTEN MY VEHICLE FIXED YET DUE TO MONEY ISSUES. HOWEVER I DID NOT EXPECT TO HAVE TO GET SOMETHING SO MAJOR FIXED ON A VEHICLE THAT IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. I WAS NOT OFFERED A WARRANTY ON MY VEHICLE WHEN I PURCHASED AND NOW I THINK I KNOW WHY I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS FROM THIS VEHICLE FROM DAY ONE.. ELECTRICITY, BATTERY, BRAKES JUST TO NAME A FEW. CURRENTLY TOYOTA IS UNDERGOING MAJOR ISSUES AND GM NEEDS HAVE A BIT OF THAT LIME LIGHT AS WELL. I FEEL FOR ANY ONE WHO IS EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE WITH THEIR VEHICLE AS IT IS DANGEROUS AND SCARY PERSONALLY LEAVING ME HELPLESS. I PRAY FOR ANY ONE WHO HAS NOT GOTTEN THIS PROBLEM FIXED AS I WISH THERE IS NOT ANY MORE ACCIDENTS PERTAINING TO A SIMPLE FIX BY GM. IS IT CHEAPER TO HAVE LAW SUITS AGAINST YOU OR FIX THE 100,000 VEHICLES THAT ARE UNDER THIS INVESTIGATION. *TR | |
