Pontiac Grand Am Steering Safety Report | Jan 10, 2009
Reported on Jan 10, 2009
| 2004 GM PONTIAC GRAND AM WITH POWER STEERING ISSUES THAT HAVE OCCURRED AFTER 30,000 MILES. WHEN THE POWERING STEERING FAILS IT'S EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STEER WHEN TRAVELING UNDER 15 MPH. AT THAT TIME, IT'S HAZARDOUS TO MYSELF AND OTHER VEHICLES AS IT'S CHALLENGING TO AVOID A COLLISION DUE TO STEERING FAILURE UNLESS THE VEHICLE IS ACCELERATED ABOVE 15 MPH. I PREVIOUSLY STRUCK A VEHICLE WHILE PARKING DUE TO THE POWER STEERING FAILURE, HOWEVER A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED DUE TO THE EXTENT OF DAMAGE WAS NOT SIGNIFICANT. GM HAS RECALLED SIMILAR COMPACT CARS WITH THE SAME ISSUE/ ROAD HAZARD AS MY GM MODEL. *TR | |
