Pontiac G6 Steering Safety Report | Jan 25, 2014
Reported on Jan 25, 2014
| WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY POWER STEERING KICKED OFF AND 3 WARNINGS CAME ACROSS MY DASH POWER STEERING, SERVICE ESC AND ESC OFF I WAS CLOSE TO A STOP SIGN AND ONCE THERE I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND BACK ON THE ALARM WENT AWAY AND MY POWER STEERING WAS ONCE AGAIN WORKING. NOT ONLY DOES MY POWER STEERING KICK OFF ALL THE TIME NOW BUT MY STEERING WHEEL CONSTANTLY JERKS TO THE LEFT, EVEN WHILE THE CAR IS STOPPED. I CONSTANTLY HAVE TO KEEP IT FROM GOING INTO THE NEXT LANE. YOU HAVE NO WARNING WHEN YOUR POWER STEERING IS GOING TO KICK OFF. ITS VERY DANGEROUS AND VERY HARD TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. I'LL BE HAVING THE CAR LOOKED AT THIS WEEK BUT I KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS. ITS THE SAME PART THAT WAS RECALLED ON SEVERAL OTHER GM CARS INCLUDING 2005-2008 G6. THE RECALL DIDN'T HAPPEN UNTIL 2012 WHICH WAS AFTER THE 2010 G6 WAS BUILT. THEY REALLY NEED TO EXPAND THE RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. | |
