Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Feb 28, 2011
Reported on Feb 28, 2011
| EXTREMELY UNHAPPY WITH GM AND THE PONTIAC G6. MY ELECTRIC STEERING WENT OUT AGAIN. BACK IN AUGUST 2010 MY ELECTRIC ASSIST WENT OUT AND I HAD IT REPAIRED BY GM DUE TO THE RECALL.. WELL IT WORKED UP UNTIL TODAY 2/28/11 AND MY ELECTRIC STEERING WENT OUT AGAIN. MY STEERING SUDDENLY BECAME HARD TO MOVE AND I ALMOST CRASHED INTO MY DRIVEWAY GATE BUT I WAS ABLE TO STOP. I GOT THE ERROR MESSAGE OF POWER STEERING IN MY DIC. I TOOK IT TO GM AND IT IS NOW SUDDENLY NOT COVERED EVEN THOUGH THEY DID NOT PROPERLY FIX THE ISSUE THE FIRST TIME. THEY WANT $800+ TO FIX THE ISSUE AND REPLACED THE MOTOR. VERY UNSATISFIED, HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A GM FAN AND OUR FAMILY HAS 5 GM CARS. I NEED THIS ISSUE RESOLVED AS I CANNOT DRIVE MY CAR WITHOUT THE POWER STEERING AS IT IS UNSAFE AND I CANNOT AFFORD A $800 REPAIR! THIS NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED BY GM ASAP! ITS NOT FAIR FOR US OWNERS TO BE DRIVING AROUND IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE THAT THE MOST IMPORTANT COMPONENT FOR SAFETY FAILED! *TR | |
