Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Dec 28, 2010
Reported on Dec 28, 2010
| I OWN A 2006 PONTIAC G6 AND THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE CAR IN DECEMBER.. I ALMOST HAD A WRECK. I WENT TO AUTO ZONE AND PURCHASED POWER STEERING FLUID AND I WAS ABLE TO ADD SOME TO THE SYSTEM. THREE DAYS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED, LUCKILY I WAS DRIVING ON A STREET WHERE I COULD PULL OVER. I CAME HOME AND CALLED PONTIAC IN SAN DIEGO, CA. AND WAS INFORMED BY THE DEALER TO COMPLAIN TO THE PONTIAC HEADQUARTERS. I CONTACTED THE HEADQUARTERS AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. IN LAST 5 WEEKS THE POWER STEERING HAS GONE OUT A TOTAL OF FIVE TIMES AND I ALMOST WRECKED TWICE. I LIVE PART TIME IN THE USA AND PART TIME IN MEXICO. THE LAST TIME I CONTACTED PONTIAC THEY SAID WHEN I RETURNED THE USA TO CONTACT THEM. ALL I AM GETTING IS A RUN AROUND WITH NO ANSWERS. I TOLD THEM THE CAR WAS DANGEROUS..THEIR EMAILS TO ME ARE VERY NEGATIVE AND I AM TOTALLY UNHAPPY WITH THEIR RESPONSE. *TR | |
