Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | May 20, 2010
Reported on May 20, 2010
| BOUGHT A 2006 PONTIAC G6 ABOUT 6 WEEKS AGO, DROVE IT FOR ABOUT 5 WEEKS THEN THE POWER STEERING LIGHT ON THE DASH CAME ON DINGING, HUSBAND TRIED TO FIND WHERE TO FILL UP THE POWER STEERING FLUID, NO PLACE IT'S ELECTRIC. WENT TO VISIT A RELATIVE 4 HOURS AWAY LEAVING FROM THE MALL ONE NIGHT LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN DINGING AND LOST ALL POWER STEERING. JUST THANKFUL WASN'T ON A SHARP TURN AS I WOULD HAVE LOST CONTROL. POWER STEERING LIGHT COMING ON ALL THE TIME NOW BUT HAVEN'T LOST POWER STEERING SINCE BUT REALLY NERVOUS ABOUT DRIVING IT AS I NEVER KNOW IF IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. HAVE HAD IT TO THE GARAGE FOR A SCAN AND IT SAYS POSITION SENSOR AND TORQUE INPUT SENSOR PROBLEM. NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM FOR CERTAIN AND EVEN IF THEY DO TRY REPLACING THE STEERING COLUMN IT DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THESE CARS TO HAVE THEM FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE LIKE MYSELF GETS HURT OR CAUSES AN ACCIDENT WITH SOMEONE ELSE. I WILL NEVER FULLY TRUST THIS CAR AGAIN. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. ASAP. *TR | |
