Reported on Mar 25, 2010
| ELECTRIC STEERING ASSIST KICKS IN AND OUT. STEERING WHEEL TURNED HARD TO THE LEFT ON ITS OWN WHILE I WAS GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 65MPH. IT TOOK BOTH HANDS TO TAKE BACK CONTROL. POWER STEERING LIGHT BLINKED ON THE RADIO. WHEN I STOPPED THE WHEEL WAS MAKING CLICKING SOUNDS AND TURNING VIOLENTLY TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT. AFTER RESTARTING THE CAR THE STEERING TEMPORARILY WENT BACK TO NORMAL. I HAVE BEEN HAVE SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THE STEERING FOR THE PAST YEAR. TOOK TO THE DEALAR SHOWING THEM BULLETIN # 10183 DESCRIBING THE EXACT PROBLEM FOR 2005 AND 2006 G6'S BUT THEY DID NOTHING STATING MY VIN # WAS NOT IN THE AFFECTED RANGE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND WILL KILL SOMEONE. | |
