2007 PONTIAC G6 Steering Problems

My power steering keep leaking making it hard to steer. Electric fuse keep blowing out,

I keep losing power steering control because of leaking. I contacted a dealership and was told that there wasn't any recall concerning , power steering, transmission, airbag and body control module. I contacted GM and was told that the recall has ended.

I'm having a really back growling sound & it keeps having lose of steering. 1 minute it's fine the next it won't steer. There has been several recalls on lose of steering with this year. It says all recalls has been done on it. But if that's the case why is these problems still happening

I bought my G6 in 2022. After about a year of having it, issues started happening. Everything was fine up until my passenger side airbag warning appeared on my radio screen and it won't go off. Could be a serious issue with the airbag. Maybe around the end of 2023 I started having problems with my power steering. I could drive down the road and all of a sudden my steering wheel would lock up. I could barely get myself to a spot to get off the road. I had to force the steering wheel to turn. I shut the car off for a minute or so just to see what would happen. After I turned the car back on the steering cleared, but as soon as I decided to go back home it locked back up. Now it's starting to lock back up this year. My major issue I have is the gas smell that's coming from the car. The smell is so strong, it's coming inside the car. When I went to get some tires put on car, the mechanic said he smelled the gas and there was a gas leak coming from the tank. The smell is so strong it can cause someone to pass out. It also causes the car to stall when trying to start it. I don't think this is safe. I have to drive my grand kids in my car. There needs to be a recall on this gas leak issue. Someone can get killed or badly injured if not taken seriously. I didn't have any warning signals appear at all about the gas/fuel issue.

Currently at around 220,000 miles and my power steering is constantly going out. Luckily it hasn’t gone out while driving, yet, but when I turn my car on the steering wheel is stiff and I get the power steering alert on the radio screen. I turn the car off and on a couple of times and it goes off. My concern is it happening while driving. Also, since this has occurred, my steering wheel shakes/turns left to right on its own while at a complete stop. As I’m driving I feel it trying to move on its own. Kind of scary.

The contact owns a 2007 Pontiac G6. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle lost power steering functionality. An unknown message for the power steering was displayed. The contact was able to pull over to the side of the road. The contact turned off the vehicle and waited for a while before restarting the vehicle. The vehicle was able restarted; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The contact stated that the failure had gotten progressively worse. The failure mileage was approximately 240,000.

2 months give/take few days power Steering locked up.Was not able to steer. Had to use flashers & carefully vere off road.Turned car off.Gave myself minutes to think. Started car tried turning steering wheel & bam it was fine. Hesitant I got back on road & went home w/no problem.2nd incident was same which happened 2nd wk Jan 2025.There was no warning of any kind either time.It has not been taken anywhere to be evaluated. Inspection is due Feb 2025 was going say something then.Whether this has anything related,turn signal lever had to be manually turned off until sometime between the 2 incidents & it now clicks off itself like it should.

The Power Steering stopped working randomly after driving on December 25th 2024, making it incredibly difficult to turn and keep the car steady. This made me feel very unsafe since I was driving my family. I searched online and apparently there had been recalls of my car model prior so I want to know if i qualify for this recall

When driving the steering will just stop working it is hard to turn wheel or control steering. I was told there was a recall on the steering system. There is a electrical problems within the steering system.

The contact's daughter owns a 2007 Pontiac G6. The contact stated while the driver was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost power steering functionality. Additionally, the contact stated that the failure persisted while starting the vehicle. The contact stated that the vehicle was undrivable. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V064000 (Steering); however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 98,000.

Electric power Steering cut out without warning while driving but came back after restarting the car.

The contact owns a 2007 Pontiac G6. The contact stated that while driving at slow speeds into a driveway, she became aware that the electronic power steering was not functioning properly, requiring increased effort to maneuver the vehicle. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed a failure with the power steering return line hose assembly due to being near the exhaust. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure reoccurred. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

Car loses power steering randomly...it has gone out in traffic...it usually goes out as soon as I put it in drive but if i turn the car off and re start it it steers fine. But when it lost power during rush hour traffic I was almost run over and had the hardest time steering to safety. Why is there not a recall on this because I've seen several reports of this happening.

After purchasing my 2007 Pontiac G6 from a private seller, I quickly noticed a significant decline in steering responsiveness within just four days. A mechanic later confirmed that the entire steering rack needs replacement, and the cost of this exceeds the current value of the vehicle itself. This abrupt failure of such a critical component renders the car unsafe to drive. The specific component that failed is the steering rack, and it is available for inspection upon request. The safety risk emerged as the vehicle became increasingly difficult to control, heightening the potential for accidents and injuries to both myself and others on the road. While the problem has been confirmed by an independent service center, it has not yet been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or any other entities. No warning lamps or messages were indicating an issue with the steering system before the failure. The decline in steering responsiveness happened suddenly, and no pre-existing symptoms were evident. Given the severity of this safety concern, I strongly urge the NHTSA to promptly investigate and consider a recall. Failure to address this potential defect could result in preventable accidents and injuries to drivers, passengers, and other motorists. Your expeditious attention to this matter is crucial for ensuring public safety.

The contact owns a 2007 Pontiac G6. The contact stated while driving at 60 MPH, the vehicle began to vibrate abnormally. The contact stated several weeks later while stopped, the power steering message was displayed. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was restarted but the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic however, no cause for the failure was found. The mechanic reset the settings to the manufacturer's setting. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The dealer was contacted, and the contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V064000 (Steering). The dealer stated that the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 50,300.

The steering wheel will start to shake as you drive and then it will stop. It will start again, some times is jerking like it is going to break. I can be parked, going 10 mph or 55 mph, it was random but now it is increasing. I have taken to 2 shops and everyone thinks it is electrical.

GM has routed the high pressure power steering line up against the header exhaust. This was done consciously due to the fact that the manufacture put a foil heat shield sleeve on that section of the line. Anyone with a spec of engineering insight will confirm that this foil sleeve is a postponed or bandaid for the issue. It's not a fix nor a solution but a delay in the failure of the line. The thousands of exact same issues online reassures my assessment. The immediate conversion to manual steering with the rear tires covered in power steering fluid doesn't seem to fit well on an on ramp while elder driving. Thank you for your time.

Theres a recall on this

My electric power steering keeps going in and out now I don't have any anything but stiffness from the steering wheel. Car is not drivable. Big safety risks.

Power Steering quit working while driving

The power steering comes and goes while driving or even while in park. if i turn the vehicle on and off several times I can get the power steering to work sometimes. This vehicle is unsafe to drive.

Very dangerous today my power steering light came on. This is the first time the service light came in the but the problem itself started about 2 weeks ago. The steering wheel also vibrates on and off.

Electrical system has mysteriously drained 2 batteries, the exterior lights vary on which will work despite the bulbs being good, the electric power steering comes on then off at inopportune times makes steering heavy and difficult to maintain Speed fluctuation the car will jump into gear or rev up to appropriate gear.

While driving the power steering ceased / seized up - car filled with grey smoke that smelled like burning rubber. Had vehicle towed, told it was steering pump - every year before and after the 2007 had a steering recall ??

I purchased my 2007 pontiac g6 4 cylinder with 40k on the odometer on 5/13/2021. I notice right away it started having problem when i drove it home and it has been almost three weeks now and the problem is intermitten. This issue happens on local road city speed (25mph) and on highway doing highway speed (60mph) intermittently. When this issue occurs the steering wheel shake like crazy and it seems like it wants to pull over to the left or the right (feels like the car wants to drive itself). I would have to put some force to keep the steering wheel straight. The error code would pop up on the radio display stating "power steering". There was a recall for this issue for the electronic power steering assist. The problem is that the recall expired 6/31/2006 and my car is made on 7/2006 so the vin number does not fall in the recall list. The situation is dangerous and this issue need to be address. This recall should extend to all 2005-2010 pontiac g6 with electronic power steering not just pick and choose which year can be on the recall list. This is ridiculous because GM know this problem and they don't care enough to do what they are supposed to do..Obviously I have no dealer warranty since the vehicle is 14 years old so a recall would help since the manufacturer is 110% at fault. GM should included more years on this recall list.. The amount gm dealer wants to fix the problem is ridiculous. Please help.

I HAVE REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR, THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING ASSIST MOTOR AND AIR FILTER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND, AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, HAVE FOUND THAT MY CAR IS EXPERIENCING EVERY ISSUE TH'S TO HAVE SEEN IN PREVIOUS GM VEHICLE SAFETY RECALLS. UNFORTUNATELY, MY VIN NUMBER SEEMS TO BE ONE OF THOSE THAT HAS NOT BEEN IDENTIFIED HAS HAVING HAD THOSE ISSUES ALTHOUGH IT CURRENTLY IS EXPERIENCING THEM. I WANT TO LODGE A COMPLAINT THAT THE VIN NUMBER SEARCH TOOL IS NOT ACCURATE ENOUGH TO DETERMINE THE VALIDITY OF A CLAIM. I SAY THIS BECAUSE EVEN ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE, THE TOOL SAYS THAT NOT ALL VIN NUMBERS THAT ARE EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH A RECALL HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN ASSOCIATED TO ANY RECALLS. AS THERE DO EXIST CURRENT RECALLS FOR ALL 07 PONTIAC G6 MODELS, THERE ARE NO RECALLS RELATED TO MY SPECIFIC VIN NUMBER. BUT, ALL OF THE RECALLS DIRECTLY MENTION EVERY ISSUES THAT MY CAR IS CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING. INCLUDING, THE TRANSMISSION NOT PROPERLY SHIFTING DUE TO A MADNESS OR BREAK IN THE SHIFT CABLE, THE POWER STEERING MOTOR SUDDENLY DYING, THE CAR EXPERIENCING A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER, ETC. EACH OF THESE ISSUES IS DIRECTLY MENTIONED IN A RECALL FOR G6 MODELS IN GENERAL, BUT FOR SOME REASON, NOT FOR MY CAR, SPECIFICALLY?

THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED, AND I GET SENT TO THE HOSPITAL. I'M NOT SURE WHAT THE REASONING OF THE CRASH BUT SOMETHING ALONG THE LINES OF THE STEERING WHEEL AND STEERING COMPONENTS.

THE POWER STEERING ON MY VEHICLE CONTINUED TO FAIL AT ANY TIME WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING ALL LOSS OF POWER STEERING UNTIL THE CAR WAS RESTARTED. THIS RECALL IS LISTED ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE. WHEN I RETURNED THIS TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME THAT SINCE THIS RECALL WAS RELEASED IN FEBRUARY 2016, WHICH WASN'T EVEN TRUE BASED OFF THE WEBSITE, THAT THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE COST, AND THE REPAIRS WOULD BE OVER 1000 DOLLARS, AND ADDITIONAL 200 DOLLARS FOR THE TECHNICIAN CHECKING MY VEHICLE.

MY CAR WHICH WAS PREVIOUSLY OWNED BY MY PARENTS WAS TAKEN IN FOR A RECALL OF THE SHIFT CABLE. SINCE THE REPAIR OF THE SHIFT CABLE IT HAS BROKEN TWO MORE TIMES. ONCE WHILE IN MOTION TO PARK IN A DRIVEWAY WHERE MY HUSBAND ALMOST DROVE INTO THE GARAGE, THE OTHER TIME IT BROKE ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF LATER WHILE I WAS PARKING IT IN A PARKING LOT THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD ALMOST HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT. THE CAR NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS PART UNTIL IT WAS SUPPOSEDLY CORRECTED BY THE DEALER. IM AFRAID ITS GOING TO BREAK WHILE I AM DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND I WONT BE ABLE TO STOP OR CONTROL THE CAR. WHEN THE SHIFT CABLE BROKE I COULD PUT THE CAR IN ANY POSITION THE SHIFTER JUST KEPT GOING UP AND DOWN IF I DIDN'T HAVE THE EMERGENCY BREAK ON I WOULD HAVE CRASHED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT. IF MY HUSBAND DIDN'T HAVE THE CAR WITH THE EMERGENCY BREAK HE WOULD HAVE CRASHED INTO THE GARAGE.I HAVE A PHOT OF THE BROKEN PART AND NOTIFIED GENERAL MOTORS TWICE SINCE THEY REPAIRED THE PART PRIOR TO IT BREAKING.

THE STEERING IN MY CAR STARTED TOSSING ME FROM SIDE TO SIDE. I FORTUNATELY WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO A SHOP 1 MILE AWAY ONLY TO FIND OUT THE SENSOR KIT AND MODULE KIT (STEERING ASSIST) NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. PONTIAC HAD A RECALL ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL BUT MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT ONE OF THEM. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION THERE HAS BEEN 404 COMPLAINTS FOR THIS EXACT REASON. THIS COULD END UP COSTING SOMEONE THEIR LIFE. WHEN SPEAKING WITH PONTIAC HE STATED MY CAR WAS NOT A PROBLEM??? I WAS ON THE PHONE WITH HIM FOR AN HOUR TRYING TO STRESS THE SERIOUSNESS OF THIS ISSUE AND HE JUST CONTINUED TO ARGUE. MY CAR ONLY HAS 96000 MILES ON IT, HE ALSO STATED HAD I A VIN NUMBER THAT FELL INTO THEIR "MAGICAL" NUMBERS AND THE DEADLINE FOR THE CORRECTION WOULD HAVE BEEN MAY 31 BUT THE ISSUE HAPPENED JUNE 1ST THEY WOULD NOT HAVE FIXED IT. PONTIAC KNOWS THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE, THEY CHOOSE TO "PICK AND CHOOSE" WHICH VEHICLE THEY WILL FIX. I ALSO TRIED TO EXPLAIN TO HIM I KNOW HOW A MANUFACTURER WORKS SO THEIR "REASONS AND EXPLANATION" WAS NOT CORRECT. I STATED TO HIM: THEY KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM OR THERE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ANY KIND OF A RECALL. I ALSO ASK HIM "WHAT IF SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED?" HE STATED "THEY SHOULD HAVE TAKEN CARE OF THEIR VEHICLE" NICE COMMENT FOR A BIG MANUFACTURER TO MAKE TO SOMEONE WHO IS LETTING THEM KNOW THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM. EVERYONE NEEDS TO PUT IN THESE COMPLAINTS TO STOP THE BIG MANUFACTURERS FROM DOING THIS.

I STARTED MY CAR ON A COOL MORNING (60+ DEGREES) FROM PARKING OVERNIGHT AND PROCEEDED TO THE HIGHWAY. I HAS TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND STEERED RIGHT WITHOUT ACTUALLY PROCEEDING, WAITING FOR A VEHICLE TO PASS. THE MOMENT I STARTED TO PROCEED, MY STEERING LOCKED AND A SIGN CAME UP INDICATING POWER STEERING. I HAD TO USE ALL MY POWER TO ALIGN THE VEHICLE, WITH MORE VEHICLES PILING UP BEHIND ME. I WAS SUPPOSED TO MAKE A SHARP LEFT TURN AT THE LIGHT BUT PROCEEDED TO GO STRAIGHT WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN UNTIL A GOT TO A STORE PARKING LOT THAT DID NOT REQUIRE A SHARP TURN TO GET MY CAR INTO. I EVENTUALLY PARKED AND CALLED FOR HELP. BUT THEN WHEN I DECIDED TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON, IT WAS NORMAL. THAT IS WHEN I CHECKED AND FOUND OUT THERE WERE RECALLS FOR YEARS PRIOR TO AND AFTER MY MODEL YEAR.

Mileage: 259,200

THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER STEERING ASSIST AT SPEEDS BELOW 20MPH WITHIN 200 MILES AFTER BEING REPAIRED. ONCE LOST, POWER STEERING ASSIST REMAINS OFF AND IT TAKES BRUTE STRENGTH TO STEER MAKING IT TOTALLY UNSAFE. ALSO, THERE ARE NO WARNING INDICATORS OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD WHEN THIS PROBLEM OCCURS. THE DEALERSHIP CAN'T SEEM TO FIX IT, SO IT SEEMS A PART IN THE POWER STEERING MAY BE DEFECTIVE.

WHEN STARTING THE CAR THE STEERING IS VERY LOOSE THEN OUT OF NO WHERE WHILE DRIVING IT TIGHTENS UP AND BARELY ALLOWS U TO MAKE TURNS. THIS HAS HAPPEND WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AS WELL AS WELL AS CITY STREETS. IM NOT SURE WHY 2006-2009 MODELS ARE UNDER RECALL FOR THIS PARTICULAR BUT APPARENTLY WHLIE RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM THE 2007 MODEL IS NOT INCLUDED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS I TOOK TO A A GM CERTIFIED DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD I CAN $850 TO HAVE FIXED .. CLEARLY I DONT HAVE THAT TYPE OF MONEY AND WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO PAY WHEN ITS HAVING THE SAME ISSUES FOR WHY THE G6 HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR FURTHER MORE WHY MY MAIN QUESTION IS WHY THE 2007 MODEL IS NOT INCLUDED WHEN CLEARLY ALOT OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE.. NO ONE HAS CONTACTED ME ABOUT A RESOLUTION WHICH IS VERY FUSTRATING TO SAY THE LEAST. THIS HAS BEEN GOIN ON FOR OVER A YEAR NOW.

THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE BUT FOR SOME REASON NHTSA HAS NOT EXPANDED THIS RECALL TO ALL 2007 G6 AND THE MANUFACTURER CAN CARE LESS. MY QUESTION IS AT WHAT POINT DOES NHTSA FORCE A MANUFACTURER TO RECALL SOMETHING THIS OBVIOUS? DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE AND THEIR FAMILY BE ON 20/20 BEFORE NHTSA MOVES THEIR BUREAUCRATIC ASSES? FROM ALL THE COMPLAINTS ITS OBVIOUS ALL 2007 G6 HAVE THIS POTENTIAL ISSUE. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, SOMEONE THERE PLEASE CONTACT THE MANUFACTURES ON THIS ISSUE AND HAVE THEM EXPAND THIS RECALL!!!!!!

I TOOK IT TO MULTIPLE MECHANICS AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NO RESERVOIR FOR POWER STEERING FLUID IN THE CAR & THAT ITS A STEERING COLUMN ISSUE THAT'S OVER $1000 TO REPAIR. THE DEALERS SAY IT'S A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM. THEY TOLD ME TO CONTACT GM DEALER TO CHECK FOR A RECALL. I CALL VARIOUS GM DEALERS AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THAT. THIS IS REDICULOUS. IT IS NOT SAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE THIS CAR THE WAY IT IS & IT IS THEIR FAULT THAT THIS IS HAPPENING! I'VE ALWAYS PREFERRED TO BUY AMERICAN CARS BUT THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FROM THE AMERICAN COMPANIES!!

I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW. IT IS A PONTIAC G 6 GT CONVERTIBLE WITH AN OPTIONAL GTP HIGH OUTPUT ENGINE AND DRIVETRAIN. THIS IS A TOP OF THE LINE VEHICLE WITH ALL OPTIONS. SINCE NEW, THE VEHICLE DOES NOT STEER WELL. IT LURCHES UNEXPECTEDLY FROM SIDE TO SIDE WHEN GOING AROUND TURNS OR JUST STRAIGHT AHEAD. IT HAS BEEN VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF AND ONLY HAS 28,000 MILES ON IT AS OF TODAY. IT IS STILL IN THE 36,000 MILE GM WARRANTY PERIOD. THERE HAS BEEN A SNAPPING/POPPING NOISE IN THE STEERING WHEEL/COLUMN SINCE NEW WHEN YOU TURN THE STEERING WHEEL FROM SIDE TO SIDE, SITTING STILL OR DRIVING. THE STEERING FEELS VERY UNSTABLE. RECENTLY THE VEHICLE STARTED CONSTANTLY PULLING TO THE RIGHT. IF I LET OFF THE STEERING WHEEL IT WILL DRIVE OFF THE ROAD. THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES BACK AND FORTH AND THE STEERING FEELS LOOSE AND BUMPY. THE ENTIRE STEERING SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE REPLACED FROM THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE WHEELS. THIS STEERING IS ELECTRIC. THE PARTS ARE VERY EXPENSIVE. THE RACK AND PINION IS ALSO MAKING NOISE AND BUMPY, NEEDS REPLACEMENT. THE WHEELS APPEAR OUT OF ALIGNMENT AND THE TIRES APPEAR TO BE WEARING ON THE OUTSIDE EDGES. THIS IS BASICALLY A BRAND NEW VEHICLE. IT HAS BEEN KEPT IN A GARAGE IN FLORIDA. NO RUST. LOOKS AND DRIVES NEW. EXCEPT FOR THE ELECTRIC STEERING SYSTEM. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. INTERNET SEARCH AND DEALER PHONE CALL CONFIRMED THAT. GM HAS SEVERAL RECALLS AND EXTENDED WARRANTIES FOR THIS, BUT MY CAR DOES NOT QUALIFY. THE STEERING SYSTEM IS MAINTENANCE FREE. THERE IS NOTHING THE CUSTOMER CAN DO. THE STEERING COLUMN SENSOR RING IS DEFECTIVE ALSO. THE UPPER STEERING COLUMN NEEDS TO BE REPLACED ALSO. THIS COULD COST WELL OVER A $1500 JUST FOR PARTS.

I HAVE HAD MANY RECALL PROBLEMS AND THE DEALER WILL NOT FIX THEM

MY PONTIAC G6 HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT TROUBLE SINCE I GOT IT. THERE IS A VIOLENT SHAKE IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND PONTIAC DOES HAVE OPEN RECALLS FOR THE ISSUE I AM HAVING FOR INADEQUATE SUPPORT OF THE U-JOINTS AND STEERING SHAFT BUT MY CAR WAS NOT MANUFACTURED IN THE STATE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED. I ALSO PERIODICALLY LOSE POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING WHICH IS ALSO ANOTHER RECALL BUT AGAIN PONTIAC SAYS MY CAR ISN'T AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR WE HAVE REPLACED PRETTY MUCH THE WHOLE SUSPENSION AND BOUGHT NEW TIRES STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM. WHEN IT DOES GO OUT COMPLETELY AND IT CAUSES ME TO HAVE A MAJOR CRASH I PRAY TO GOD MY KIDS ARE NOT IN THE CAR AND THAT I DON'T DIE OR HURT SOMEONE ELSE IN THE PROCESS OF TRYING TO GET THE CAR STOPPED. I DO A LOT OF DRIVING FOR MY JOB AND THE SHAKE JUST GETS WORSE AND WORSE PONTIAC SAID THEY COULD SET ME UP AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE IT FIXED WHICH I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR BUT I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO. THEY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THIS ISSUE JUST BECAUSE MY CAR WAS MADE IN A DIFFERENT STATE DOESN'T MEAN THAT THEY USED DIFFERENT PARTS OR PUT IT TOGETHER A DIFFERENT WAY. THE PONTIAC G6 IS A HUNK OF JUNK I'LL NEVER BUY ANOTHER PONTIAC PRODUCT IN MY LIFE IF THIS ONE DOESN'T KILL ME. I KNOW I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS THIS PROBLEM AS I HAVE SEEN COUNTLESS THREADS DISCUSSING THE TOPIC ON G6PERFORMANCE.COM. THE SHAKING STARTS AT ABOUT 40MPH AND THE FASTER YOU GO TE WORSE IT BECOMES.

HE TOOK THE LAST EIGHT DIGITS OF MY VIN AND RETURNED A SHORT TIME LATER AND SAID THAT THERE WERE NO EXISTING RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE. I HAVE ALMOST 194,000 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE NOW AND PURCHASED IT WHEN IT HAD ABOUT 163,000 MILES ON IT. THE PREVIOUS OWNER TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD RESPONDED TO ALL RECALL NOTICES ASSOCIATED WITH THE CAR, BUT HE COULDN'T REMEMBER IF IT WAS EVER FOR POWER STEERING. IF IT WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED, IT DID NOT LAST VERY LONG. I HAVE READ THAT THERE WERE RECALLS FOR ALL OF THE G6 YEARS EXCEPT FOR THE 2007, BUT I ALSO SAW A YOUTUBE VIDEO FROM 2015 THAT SAID THAT GM HAD RECALLED THE 2007 CHEVY MALIBU AND PONTIAC G6 SO I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS ACCURATE.

THE STEERING WHEEL WAS MOVING IN BOTH DIRECTIONS BY ITSELF, THEN LOCKED UP. I HAD TO GET OUT AND PUSH THE CAR INTO A SAFE PLACE AND WAS UNABLE TO RE-START IT.

SINCE I BOUGHT THIS PONTIAC BACK IN 2009, IT HAD A LOUD CLUNKING AND STEERING SOUND IN THE FRONT END WHICH GOT WORSE OVER THE YEARS. I CAN FEEL THE NOISE VIBRATE IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND IT DOESN'T FEEL SAFE. THE GM DEALER SAID, 'IT'S NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.' I HAD THEM CHECK IT OUT AND THEY CLAIM IT'S FINE. I DID ONLINE RESEARCH AND APPARENTLY OTHER GM PONTIAC OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME COMPLAINT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. WHY WON'T GM FIX THIS?

THE POWER STEERING ASSIST GOES OUT AT RANDOM TIMES. HAVE NEARLY CRASHED SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS! OTHER 2007 PONTIAC G6'S ARE COVERED UNDER RECALL 14772, BUT THIS CAR IS NOT. THE EXACT THING DESCRIBED IN THIS RECALL IS OCURRING WITH THIS CAR!

ALSO AT JUST ANY RANDOM TIME THE AIRBAG WARNING WILL JUST POP UP ON MY DASHBOARD. VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN NO ACCIDENTS, SO THERE SHOULD BE NO REASON TO THAT JUST RANDOMLY "POPPIGN UP" I WILL BE MAKING FORMAL COMPLAINTS TO BBB AND NATIONAL SAFETY WEBSITE.

GM SUGGESTED I ROTATE TIRES, RESURFACE ROTORS, REPLACE TIE RODS AND STABILIZER BAR CONTROL LINK`. I HAVE PAID FOR ALL OF THIS AT MY MECHANIC AND THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. I HAVE HAD 2 MECHANICS(NON GM) INSIST THAT ITS THE STEERING COLUMN SHAFT AND THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME EXACT ISSUE BUT GM REFUSES TO FIX THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THEY LUBED THE SHAFT SOME YEARS AGO BUT THAT WAS JUST A BAND AID.I UNDERSTAND THEY WERE REPLACING THE SHAFTS YEARS AGO BUT STOPPED BECAUSE OF THE HIGH COST FOR GM. I KNOW THAT THIS IS AND HAS BEEN MY ISSUES OVER THE YEARS AND IT IS ONLY GETTING WORSE. THEY SHOULD HAVE FIXED IT THE CORRECT WAY THE FIRST TIME INSTEAD OF GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND AND HAVING ALL THESE OTHER THINGS DONE TO MY VEHICLE WHEN THE MAIN ISSUE IS THE STEERING COLUMN SHAFT. I HAVE HAD ENOUGH SPENDING MONEY ON MY VEHICLE WHEN PONTIAC SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING AND OR REPAIRING MY SHAFT.

THERE ARE CLOSE TO 200 COMPLAINTS ON THE NHTSA ALONE WITH PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SAME YEAR. WHY ON EARTH IS GM REFUSING TO REPAIR THESE CARS LIKE THEY ARE DOING ON OTHER YEARS OF THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL. THIS WAS A DANGEROUS SITUATION TO ME, AND THE INNOCENT DRIVERS AROUND ME.

I HAVE TAKEN EXTREMELY GOOD CARE OF MY VEHICLE WHICH HAS 120,000 MILES ON IT AND HAVE A PERFECT DRIVING RECORD. I SEARCHED FOR A RECALL VIA MY VIN # ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT GM ISN'T RECALLING THE POWER STEERING ON MY VEHICLE. I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY SINCE THERE IS A RECALL FOR JUST ABOUT EVERY OTHER TYPE OF PONTIAC G6, INCLUDING 2007. WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE? I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO GET THIS FIXED RIGHT NOW AND DON'T WANT TO PUT MYSELF OR OTHERS AT HARM. *TR

THE POWER STEERING WOULD NOT WORK UPON STARTING THE CAR AND WE WOULD NEED TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON AGAIN TO GET THE POWER STEERING TO WORK. AFTER ABOUT A WEEK OF THIS HAPPENING MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND THE POWER STEERING COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. WE CONTACTED GM TO SEE IF OUR CAR WAS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL BUT THEY SAID OUR VIN NUMBER WAS NOT AND THAT WE WOULD NEED TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THE REPAIRS. SO INDEED THAT IS WHAT WE DID BUT WE ARE QUITE UNHAPPY THAT WE HAVE THE EXACT PROBLEM INDICATED ON THE RECALL BUT WE NEED TO PAY OUT OF POCKET BECAUSE OUR VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED. *TR

ON MY WAY INTO WORK THIS MORNING, THE WARNING FOR "POWER STEERING" FLASHED ON MY CAR AND THE STEERING SUDDENLY QUIT WORKING ON MY 2007 PONTIAC G6. I WAS GOING ABOUT 40 MPH ON A STRAIGHT STRETCH THROUGH TOWN. LUCKILY, I HADN'T MERGED TO GET ON THE INTERSTATE YET.

THEY ALSO STATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2006-2007 PONTIAC G6'S, BUT THAT MY CAR/VIN WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL AS IT WAS BUILT OUTSIDE OF THE BATCH OF CARS THE RECALL COVERED.

I HAVE PREVIOUSLY FILED A COMPLAINT AND WAS TOLD BY THE PONTIAC CUSTOMER SERVICE TEAM AT #1-800-762-2737. MY CAR HAS LESS THAN 50,000 MILES AND IT A 2007 PONTIAC G6. I FOUND A RECALL ON THE WEBSITE, RECALL# 14772, WHICH IS AN EXPANSION RECALL FROM THE ORIGINAL RECALL 14V-153. PONTIAC IS STATING THAT ONLY VIN NUMBER CARS MANUFACTURED BETWEEN APRIL 18,2006-JUNE 30,2006 ARE COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL. PONTIAC AGREED TO PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC AND IT WAS DETERMINED BY JAKE SWEENY WHICH PONTIAC ADVISED ME TO TAKE THE CAR TO. JAKE SWEENY INDICATED IT WAS THE TORQUE SENSOR. I THEN, CALLED BACK PONTIAC TO ADVISE THEM WHAT THE DIAGNOSTIC OUTCOME AND PONTIAC STATED THEY WILL NOT PAY FOR THE REPAIR UNDER THE RECALL. I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED AS I HAVE READ THERE ARE OVER 69,000 COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE AND I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT PONTIAC CAN JUSTIFY THAT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT RELATED TO THIS RECALL. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I BELIEVE UNDER MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY (TITLE 49, CHAPTER 301) THIS IS A SAFETY AND RISK ISSUE. *TR

MY POWER STEERING IS DEAD!!! THEY WANT ME TO PAY $1200 TO FIX IT. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. HOW DO YOU FIRST RECALL 05, 06... 08, 09. THEN ONLY A SELECTED FEW 2007 YEARS LATER. WHENEVER I TELL ANYONE ABOUT THIS THEY ALL HAVE THE WTH EXPRESSION. *TR

THE POWER STEERING RANDOMLY WILL SUDDENLY LOOSE POWER STEERING. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. POWER STEERING IS RESTORED ONCE THE CAR IS RESTARTED. OUR VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL BY GM FOR THE VERY SAME POWER STEERING ISSUE THAT OTHER SAME MODEL YEAR PONTIAC G6 CARS ARE INCLUDED IN. IT WAS FIRST NOTICED IN 2013 (MILEAGE UNKNOWN- AMOUNT ABOVE IS ESTIMATE) BY MY HUSBAND WHO WAS PRIMARY DRIVER AND IT WOULD ONLY HAPPEN WHEN GOING IN REVERSE. IT WOULD HAPPEN SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK ONLY IN REVERSE AND IT RESTORED ON ITS OWN. I WAS DRIVING IT IN 2014 WHEN I WAS GOING ABOUT 30MPH- IT WENT OUT ON ME. IT ONLY RESTORED WHEN CAR WAS RESTARTED. *TR

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND WENT TO SWITCH LANES TO THE LEFT AND THE CAR MADE A DINGING NOISE AND IT WAS EXTREMELY HARD TO MAKE THE TURN AS I NORMALLY COULD. I LOOKED AT THE DISPLAY AND THE POWER STEERING WAS ON THE SCREEN . WHEN I FINALLY MADE IT TO MY DESTINATION, AND CUT THE CAR OFF UPON RESTARTING IT THE POWER STEERING CAME BACK. UPON RETURNING HOME THAT NIGHT POWER STEERING WAS WORKING FINE AND WHEN I WENT TO TURN FROM OFF THE FREEWAY TO CITY STREETS, I ALMOST HIT A CAR IN THE FAR LEFT LANE OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC BECAUSE ONCE AGAIN THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT. FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS THE POWER STEERING COULD BE RESET BY RESTARTING THE CAR AND THEN FINALLY IT WENT OUT COMPLETELY. WHAT I DO NOTICE IS THAT IF MY WHEEL IS TURNED AT 180 DEGREES IT HAS NO SHAKE AND I CAN BACK UP AND NEVER LOSE POWER STEERING BUT AS SOON AS I TURN IT LEFT OR RIGHT IT LOCKS UP AND THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT AGAIN. I WAS TOLD I NEED TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN AS WELL AS PAY FOR PROGRAMMING TO GET MY KEY TO WORK TO THE NEW COLUMN. I AM EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED AS GM HAS RECALLED MY YEAR MAKE AND MODEL BUT MY VIN NUMBER ISN'T LISTED IN THE RECALL. I HOPE THIS IS FIXED SOON AS I HAVE DONE INVESTIGATION AND TO FIX THIS OUT OF POCKET IT WILL COST AROUND $750.00. *TR

WHEN THE CAR IS FIRST STARTED 50% OF THE TIME YOU WILL HAVE NO POWER STEERING AT ALL. AFTER TURNING THE CAR ON AND OFF MULTIPLE TIMES YOU WILL REGAIN YOUR POWER STEERING. WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE POWER STEERING WILL FAIL SOMETIMES SOONER THEN OTHER TIMES. THIS CAN MAKE IT VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN AND WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE CHECKED FOR A POWER STEERING RECALL ON MY CAR AND AT THIS POINT HAVE NOT REVIVED ONE. I HAVE CHECKED ALL POSSIBLE CAUSES AND HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO A FEW SHOPS AND THEY ALL TELL ME I NEED A NEW STEERING COLUMN. MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND IT IS NOT CHEAP THE FIX.

SOMETIMES POWER STEERING WOULD UNEXPECTEDLY COME BACK ON BY "ITSELF" - WITH A VERY DANGEROUS, UNPREDICTABLE JERK-TYPE MOTION. OTHER TIMES I WOULD PULL OVER (VERY DIFFICULT & SCARY TO STEER!) & RESTART CAR TO TRY TO GET POWER STEERING BACK. POWER STEERING HAS NOW COMPLETELY FAILED. TOWED CAR TO GM DEALERSHIP. WHILE WAITING FOR CALLBACK, DID RESEARCH & FOUND OUT ABOUT EXISTING & NEWLY EXPANDED RECALLS FOR TORQUE SENSOR. DEALER THEN CALLED TO SAY MY CAR (MANUFACT DATE 11/06) WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALLS! THEY ALSO SAID, THAT IN ADDITION TO DEFECTIVE TORQUE SENOR ($600 PART/LABOR) THAT THE POWER STEERING MOTOR WAS ALSO BROKEN (ADDL' COST $500) SO NOW A TOTAL OF $1100 AND NO HELP FROM EXISTING GM RECALLS! MY CAR HAS THE EXACT SAME DEFECTIVE PART(S) AS COUNTLESS OTHERS HAVE (SOME OF WHICH WERE INCLUDED IN THE RECALLS) THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PART(S) ISSUE THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN GOING ON FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS!

MY CAR IS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY OF THE RECALLS. I TOOK TO A GM DEALERSHIP THEY DIAGNOSED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS INDEED, THE TORQUE MODULE SENSOR, WHICH IS THE SAME AS ALL THE OTHER VEHICLES UNDER RECALL. SO WHY IS MY VEHICLE NOT INCLUDED?!?! I HAD THIS ISSUE FIXED TODAY. ANOTHER ISSUE THAT ALSO JUST STARTED HAPPENING IN THE PAST FEW WEEKS IS MY PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL INTERMITTENTLY WILL NOT WORK. THE AIRBAG DISPLAY WILL SHOW ON MY DASH BOARD AND IT WILL SHOW THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS OFF. THIS LIGHT COMES AT RANDOM TIMES WHETHER OR NOT THERE IS SOMEONE SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I ALSO HAD THIS DIAGNOSED AT THE GM DEALERSHIP. THE SAID IT WAS MY PPS (PASSENGER PRESENCE SYSTEM) THIS ALSO NEEDS A NEW SENSOR AND IT WILL COST $700 TO FIX!!!! THERE IS SERVICE BULLETIN REGARDING THIS FOR MY CAR SO THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY AWARE THAT THIS A COMMON PROBLEM. THE SERVICE TECH AT GM SAID THAT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH THIS (NO KIDDING) AND THAT IF THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS DISPLAYED ON THE DASH NONE OF MY AIRBAGS WILL DEPLOY. LETS HOPE THAT GM DOES NOT DRAG THEIR FEET ON THIS, ALL SOMEONE NEEDS IS TO LOOSE THEIR POWER STEERING, CRASH, AND HAVE NO AIRBAGS DEPLOY. I HAVE NOT HAD MY AIRBAGS FIXED AS I ALREADY HAD TO SPEND $400 PLUS TO HAVE MY POWER STEERING CORRECTED. IF GM DOES NOT CORRECT THIS ASAP I PREDICT THEY WILL HAVE MANY MORE LAWSUITS COMING THEIR WAY.

AS SOON AS I DROVE THE CAR DOWN MY STREET, THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT. I WAS ALERTED BY A DING AND THEN A MESSAGE. I PULLED OVER AS BEST AS I COULD AND TURNED MY CAR OFF AND RESTARTED. I GOT ABOUT 1 1/2 MILES AND ONTO A MAJOR STREET BEFORE IT HAPPENED AGAIN. AGAIN, I PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF MY CAR, THEN RESTARTED IT. AS SOON AS I PULLED AWAY FROM THE CURB, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THANKFULLY I WAS ON A STRAIGHT ROAD, OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A VERY BAD POSITION. WHEN I GOT TO MY DESTINATION (I CONTINUED BECAUSE I WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE WHEEL TO TURN AROUND) I NEARLY WAS IN A WRECK BECAUSE IT WAS SO SO HARD FOR ME TO RUN THE WHEEL, THE CAR BEHIND ME WASN'T READY FOR THAT. I DID TURN ON MY HAZARDS JUST IN CASE. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL GM DEALERSHIP AND WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE BUT BECAUSE MY VEHICLE MAKE MODEL AND YEAR HAD NOT BEEN PART OF THE RECALL, I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. ESTIMATION = $900 APPROX. I'M DEEPLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AS WELL AS OTHERS WHO OWN THIS VEHICLE. IT CLEARLY ISN'T SAFE ENOUGH TO BE ON THE ROADS.

THE POWER STEERING LIGHT WAS BLINKING ON THE CONSOLE OFF AND ON SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR (MARCH 2013). THE POWER STEERING WOULD SHAKE, MAKE CLICKING NOISES (I HAD REPEATEDLY CALLED THE PLACE I BOUGHT THE CAR AT AND THEY SAID SINCE THE CAR WAS BOUGHT USED AND THEY ARE NOT A SERVICE STATION IT WAS NOT THEIR PROBLEM). THE POWER STEERING WENT COMPLETELY OUT. I HAD TO TURN OFF THE CAR TO GET IT TO RESET. THE POWER STEERING HAS BEEN GOING OUT OFF AND ON SINCE JAN. 2014. I SAW ON THE NEWS THAT GM WAS RECALLING POWER STEERING FOR THE G6S BUT ONLY ON SOME NOT ALL. IF YOU INVESTIGATE ONLINE..THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE WITH ALL MODELS OF PONTIAC G6. I CALLED GM AT THE TIME OF THE RECALL AND THEY SAID THAT IF MY CAR WAS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL I WOULD RECEIVE A NOTICE. WELL I HAVEN'T RECEIVED THAT NOTICE TO DATE AND THIS IS DEFINITELY A PROBLEM SINCE THIS CAR IS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING THAT THE RECALL STATES FOR THE OTHER YEARS...THIS PROBLEM IS DEFINITELY AFFECTING THE 2007 G6 AS WELL AS ALL OF THE OTHER YEARS.

YESTERDAY MORNING I WAS DRIVING THE 2007 PONTIAC G6 AND THE POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING AND CAUSED TO GO OFF THE ROAD. AFTER GETTING IT TOED HOME POWER STEERING IS COMPLETELY GONE. I HAVE ALREADY CONTACTED GM (YESTERDAY) AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT EVEN THOUGH IT WAS DISPLAYING THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS OF A FAULTING STEERING COLUMN FROM SIMILAR VEHICLES RECALLED ( 2005 , 6 8 AND 9 PONTIAC G6S) IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL SO I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET.

WHEEL IS ACTUALLY FEELING REALLY LOSE WHICH TO MY PAST EXPERIENCE IS WHEN THE STEERING ISSUE STARTS BECAUSE ITS LIKE IT GETS REALLY LOOSE BEFORE IT LOCKS UP ON YOU. WELL ANYWAY YESTERDAY WHILE DRIVING THE POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN I CHECKED ONLINE REGARDING WHAT CAN BE WRONG SEEN A RECALL BUT CALLED GM, THE DEALER AND THE DORMAN MFR AND ALL 3 SAID MY CAR WAS NOT ONE INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. HOWEVER I LIKE OTHERS HAVE HEARD A NOISE IN MY CAR SINCE I GOT IT AT ABOUT 92000 MILES ON IT. ALTHOUGH NO INCIDENT, I AM VERY NERVOUS SINCE I DO DRIVE A LOT AND FEEL AS THOUGH SOMETHING IS WRONG AND CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME. GM CALLED THE DEALER SO THAT I CAN GET A DIAGNOSIS AND SINCE I CAN'T DROP IT OFF BECAUSE I HAVE NO OTHER WAY TO LEAVE AND COME BACK WHEN THEY ARE DONE THEY SAID THEY CAN'T GET ME IN TO DIAGNOSE IT UNTIL DEC 31 WHICH FOR WHAT IS FEELING WRONG WITH THE CAR IS NOT VERY GOOD SINCE IT IS ONLY DEC 8, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN BETWEEN NOW AND DEC 31. HOPEFULLY WITH ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVING ISSUES THEY WILL GET THEIR CRAP TOGETHER. I FEEL AS THOUGH AFTER SO MANY RECALLS AND ISSUES WITH SPECIFIC MODELS THERE SHOULD JUST BE COMPENSATION TO ASSIST WITH GETTING ANOTHER CAR INSTEAD OF KEEP THROWING US OUT THERE AND RISKING LIVES. THIS TO ME IS TOO MANY SAFETY ISSUES. I JUST GOT DONE HAVING 2 RECALLS DONE ON MY CAR A FEW MONTHS AGO WHICH TOOK FOREVER TO FINALLY BE RECALLED.

THE STEERING IS BAD ON EVERY ONE OF THIS CARS, BECAUSE OF THE RACK & PINION. RACK & PINION ,THEY GO OUT AROUND 50.000 MILES AND CAN CAUSE A CRASH, THE REAR OF A PONTIAC IS NOT UP TO ANY CODE, THE EXHAUST IS UNDER THE FUEL TANK WITH A METAL SHEETING BETWEEN THEM IF YOU GET REAR ENDED THEY WILL BE A FIRE OR A EXPLOSION.

WHEN TRAVELING AT ABOUT 25-30 MPH 3 BEEPS WERE HEARD AND A MESSAGE ON THE DASH SAID POWER STEERING. THIS HAPPENED JUST AS THE CAR WAS BEING TURNED AND THERE WAS A TOTAL LOSS OF THE POWERSTEERING. IT WAS TOO DANGEROUS TO OPERATE AND THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE FIXED BECAUSE OF THE POTENTIAL LOSS OF POWER STEERING AT SLOWER SPEED. I CALLED GM AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOT ANY RECALL FOR SUCH A PROBLEM. THEN IN THE END OF MARCH OF 2014 A GM RECALL (ID # 102624) WAS SENT OUT PERTAINING TO 2005. 2006, 2008, AND 2009 PONTIAC G6S. 2007 CARS LIKE MINE WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. I LEARNED THAT THIS RECALL COULD AFFECT 1.3 MILLION GM VEHICLES. JEFF BOYER, VICE PRESIDENT OF GM GLOBAL VEHICLE SAFETY, STATED "WITH THESE SAFETY RECALL AND LIFETIME WARRANTIES, WE ARE GOING AFTER EVERY(EMPHASIZED) CAR THAT MIGHT HAVE THIS PROBLEM, AND WE ARE GOING TO MAKE IT RIGHT" "WE HAVE RECALLED SOME OF THESE VEHICLES BEFORE FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND OFFERED EXTENDED WARRANTIES ON OTHERS, BUT WE DID NOT DO ENOUGH." I REQUEST THAT NHTSA INVESTIGATE WHY 2007 PONTIAC G6S WERE LEFT OUT OF THIS RECALL. I HAVE HAD THE POWER STEERING COLUMN REPLACED TWO TIMES AT GREAT EXPENSE AND I BELIEVE THAT GM SHOULD REIMBURSE ME FOR THE REPAIR. GM MUST ANSWER IF THE 2007 G6S WERE MATERIALLY DIFFERENT FROM THE 2005,2006,2008 AND 2009 MODELS. WERE TOTALLY NEW PARTS AND SYSTEMS ONLY AVAILABLE IN 2007 AND THEN CHANGED AGAIN FOR 2008 AND 2009? . I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT TO GM AND HAVE HAD THE PROBLEM ANALYZED BY MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I AM AWAITING WHETHER GM WILL PROVIDE ANY FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IN CORRECTING THIS POWERSTEERING ISSUE. COST TO REPAIR APPROX $850-$1000 EACH TIME. REQUEST THAT NHTSA INVESTIGATE THIS MODEL YEAR 2007 PONTIAC G6. *TR

ON JAN 21, 2014 THE POWER STEERING LIGHT AND BEEP WENT OFF AND THE POWER STEERING WOULD NOT WORK. I COULD TURN THE CAR OFF, TURN THE STEERING WHEEL BACK AND FORTH WHILE TURNING THE KEY BACK ON AND THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED - FOR A WHILE. THIS TECHNIQUE NO LONGER WORKS. TWO YEARS AGO THE STEERING WENT OUT SPORADICALLY FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS-I COULD TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON AGAIN AND THE STEERING WOULD WORK. WE CHECKED INTO GETTING IT FIXED BUT WERE TOLD IT WAS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST (WHY NOT??). FOR SOME REASON,BACK THEN, THE PROBLEM JUST STOPPED HAPPENING AND THE STEERING WAS FINE AGAIN UNTIL THIS PAST JANUARY. I'M NOT SURE WHAT IS TRIGGERING THIS PROBLEM BUT I DO KNOW THAT IT IS GOING TO COST QUITE A BIT OF MONEY TO FIX. THE 2007 PONTIAC G6 NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO THE ALREADY LONG LIST OF RECALLS FOR THIS PROBLEM. *TR

I'M HAVING SUCH A HARD TIME TRYING TO DRIVE, I REALLY HATE TO DRIVE JUST KNOWING THE PROBLEM I HAVE AND AT ANY MOMENT THE STEERING WHEEL WILL EVENTUALLY GIVE OUT. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP WAS TOLD THE COST FOR REPAIRS WOULD COST AT LEAST 680.00 TO GET THE PROBLEM FIXED. THE REPAIRMAN STATED HE KNOWS A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT CONTINUE TO DRIVE WITH THIS PROBLEM BUT IS THAT REALLY HELPING ME WHEN I KNOW I COULD HAVE AN ACCIDENT AT ANYTIME, AT THIS POINT I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT TO DO. PLEASE HELP I REALLY LOVE MY G6 BUT THERE REALLY NEEDS TO BE SOMETHING DONE ABOUT THE STEERING PROBLEM. THE CARE WAS PURCHASED AT SUNRISE PONTIAC HERE IN MEMPHIS ON COVINGTON PIKE. *TR

I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK. STARTED OUT FINE. DROVE FOR 5 MINUTES. TURNED RIGHT ON RED, THANK GOD THERE WERE NO CARS, AS SOON AS I ACCELERATED GOING 10 MILES MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP, THE POWER STEERING LIGHT WENT ON, JUST ABOUT IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTINUE THE TURN. ALMOST WENT INTO THE MEDIAN. IT TOOK EVERY BIT OF STRENGTH I HAD TO TURN THE WHEEL. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THIS & AM SEEING THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH MANY G6 OWNERS. I AM DEEPLY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS DEFECT BECAUSE I HAVE MY GRANDKIDS IN THE CAR WITH ME OFTEN. THIS IS SERIOUS ENOUGH FOR A RECALL. THIS DEFECT IS GOING TO CAUSE FATALITIES.THERE IS NO WARNING BEFORE IT HAPPENS. I AM SO ANGRY THAT THEY ARE PUTTING PEOPLES LIVES IN DANGER. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN MY CAR ANYMORE. I ALSO TRAVEL TWICE A WEEK ON THE EXPRESSWAY & THE EXIT I USE CURVES WITH A 35 FOOT DROP AND NO BARRICADE, GUESS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I'M COMING OFF THE EXPRESSWAY & CAN'T TURN THE WHEEL! *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON MY WAY TO WORK WHEN THE POWER STEERING MESSAGE FLASHED ON MY RADIO. I THEN LOST ALL POWER STEERING IN MY CAR. I COULDN'T STEER THE VEHICLE EVEN WHEN FORCE WAS EXERTED. I ENDED UP HAVING TO REPLACE THE POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE AND THE STEERING COLUMN. ($1,249) HOWEVER, IT IS STILL HARD TO STEER AND I AM NOT SATISFIED AT ALL WITH THE OUTCOME.

I ALSO EXPERIENCED THE WHEEL JERKING TO ONE SIDE WHILE I WAS DRIVING BEFORE IT WENT COMPLETELY OUT AND IT CAUSED ME TO CROSS THE DOUBLE YELLOW LINE. THIS NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED GOOD ENOUGH FOR A RECALL SINCE THAT OBVIOUSLY COULD HAVE TAKEN LIVES. *TR

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING ISSUE. WHILE DRIVING AND IN A TURN, THE STEERING WHEEL JERKED AND THEN WOULDN'T TURN ANY MORE - STUCK IN A TURN IN AN INTERSECTION. HAD TO TURN CAR OFF AND RESTART TO CLEAR THE ISSUE. CONTINUED DOING THIS, SO TOOK IT TO A TRUSTED INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP. DIAGNOSIS WAS ELECTRIC POWER STEERING ASSIST MOTOR FAILURE. THEY REPLACED THE POWER STEERING MOTOR CONTROL MODULE AT A COST OF $758.25. WITHIN A MONTH, THE RADIO DISPLAY SHOWED "POWER STEERING" FAULT. TRADED THE G6 FOR A SUBARU FORESTER.

THIS VEHICLE ALSO ONLY HAS 70,000 MILES ON IT THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE WHATSOEVER,WHY IS THAT?BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY SOMEONE AT GM DROPPED THE BALL!!!

AFTER READING A FEW OF THESE REVIEWS AND NOTICING THAT EVERYONE IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUES, SOMETHINGS NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS IT IS NOT SAFE FOR MY FAMILY TO BE DRIVING THIS CAR THE WAY IT IS.

IN ADDITION I HAVE CONTACTED THE SERVICE PART OF GM REGARDING THE REMOTE START WHICH WAS INSTALLED BEFORE I BOUGHT THE CAR. THE REMOTE START HAS HAD PROBLEMS SINCE PURCHASE AND I HAVE GONE BACK NUMEROUS TIMES FOR THEM TO FIX IT, TO NO AVAIL. THE CAR STARTS, THEN SHUTS OFF. AFTER THE KEY IS APPLIED TO START THE CAR, WHICH IT DOES, WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED THERE IS A GRINDING NOISE TO PUT THE CAR INTO GEAR.

WHILE DRIVING AT AN ESTIMATED 45 MPH THE STEERING WHEEL PRECEDED TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY FROM LEFT TO RIGHT AND WE IMMEDIATELY PULLED TO SIDE OF ROAD TO INSPECT THE FRONT WHEELS TO MAKE SURE THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. TRIED TO TAKE OFF AND DRIVE AGAIN AND THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY THEREFORE PULLED OVER AGAIN AND CALLED A TOW TRUCK. PAID $100.00 TO HAVE IT TOWED. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WE PURCHASED IT FROM AND THEY PROCEEDED TO TELL US THAT THERE WERE SERVICE BULLETINS ON THIS MATTER WITH THE CAR. THEY PROCEEDED TO TELL US THAT OUR CAR WAS NOT COVERED BECAUSE IT HAD THE WRONG VIN NUMBER UNDER WARRANTY. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION SAID THAT BASICALLY IT WAS GOING TO BE OUR PROBLEM AND WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT TO GET FIXED EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE SERVICE BULLETINS ISSUED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THEY CHARGED ME $40 TO CHECK IT OUT, PLUS QUOTED US A PRICE OF OVER $800 TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND PLUS THE TOWING PROBLEM THAT GM HAS PRODUCED DANGEROUS SITUATIONS WITH THERE PRODUCT AND WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THERE PRODUCT. THIS IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE CHECKED ON CONSIDERING THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS THAT HAVE BEEN LODGED ABOUT THE SAME THING HAPPENING TO OTHER PEOPLE WHILE DRIVING.

OUR ELEC POWER STEERING IS GOING. IN CHECKING THE INTERNET I NOTE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. I NOTE IN CANADA WHERE CARS ARE MANUFACTURED DIFFERENTLY THAN HERE IN THE USA THEY HAVE RECALLED THE PONT G6 FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. I WOULD SUGGEST YOU LOOK AT THERE DATA AND INVESTIGATE THE SAME. CANADA'S NOTICE IS BELOW: A GRAND TOTAL OF 67,414 SEDANS ARE BEING RECALLED BY GM INCLUDING THE CHEVROLET MALIBU AND MALIBU MAXX (2005, 2006, 2008), PONTIAC G6 (2005, 2006, 2008), AND SATURN AURA (2008). THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING MAY EXPERIENCE A SUDDEN LOSS OF STEERING ASSIST THAT COULD OCCUR AT ANY TIME WHILE DRIVING. A MESSAGE WOULD BE DISPLAYED ON THE DRIVER INFORMATION CENTRE AND A CHIME WOULD SOUND TO INFORM THE DRIVER. STEERING CONTROL CAN BE MAINTAINED, AS THE VEHICLE WILL REVERT TO A MANUAL STEERING MODE, BUT REQUIRES GREATER DRIVER EFFORT AT LOW SPEEDS. THIS INCREASES THE RISK OF A COLLISION. OWNERS ARE ADVISED TO TAKE THEIR VEHICLE TO A GM DEALER TO RECEIVE A SPECIAL EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR A PERIOD OF 10 YEARS/240,000 KM FROM THE DATE THE VEHICLE WAS ORIGINALLY PUT IN SERVICE. FOR 2005 AND 2006 MODELS, DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE STEERING COLUMN. FOR 2008 MODELS, THEY WILL REPLACE THE POWER STEERING MOTOR CONTROL MODULE. *TR

WHEN MAKING TURNS THERE IS A LOUD POP SOUND COMING FROM THE STEERING COLUMN. ALSO I AM HAVING ISSUES WITH MY BRAKE LIGHTS COMING ON WHILE THE BRAKE IS NOT COMPRESSED AND GOING OFF WHILE THE BRAKE IS COMPRESSED. IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE.

POWER STEERING LOCKS UP. LOCKS UP NO MATTER WHAT SPEED YOU ARE GOING. FOUND THAT THEY REPLACED THIS FOR THE 05,06, 08 YEARS BUT NOT 07? REALLY? APPARENTLY IT IS STILL A DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED BY PONTIAC. I VIEWED SEVERAL COMPLAINTS AND PONTIAC DOES NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE 2007. NOT SURE HOW THEY ARE GETTING AWAY WITH THIS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND WILL GO OUT AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT. VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE. MUST REPLACE OR DON'T DRIVE. I HAVE DRIVEN OTHER MAKES OF CARS BEFORE AND THEY HAVE REPAIRED THEM IF THERE WAS A RECALL. THIS IS MY FIRST NEW PONTIAC THAT THEY REFUSE TO RECALL. NEXT NEW CAR WILL NOT BE PONTIAC.

I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIRS. YESTERDAY I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT AND I BELIEVE THE STEERING PROBLEM PLAYED A ROLE. THE WHEEL WAS JERKING, PRIOR TO THE ACCIDENT. WE WERE DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE TRAVELING AT A FASTER SPEED. I DON'T KNOW HOW I ENDED UP BOUNCING OFF THE BACK TIRE OF A SEMI TRUCK IN THE LANE NEXT TO ME, BUT I WAS FIGHTING THE CAR TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AGAIN.

DURING THE 15 MINUTE DRIVE TO MY HOUSE THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON SEVERAL MORE TIMES EACH TIME I WAS COMING TO A STOP AND/ OR TURNING. ONCE HOME I FOUND THAT THERE WAS NO WAY FOR ME TO FILL OR EVEN CHECK THE FLUID LEVELS. IT HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AND THE POWER STEERING HAS BEGUN TO FAIL. I HAD THE CAR CHECKED OUT AT A DEALERSHIP( AS INSTRUCTED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL) BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO PULL A CODE NOR HAD THEY EVER HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM. THIS CAR IS GENERALLY DRIVEN BY MY WIFE AND THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. *TR

THIS WAS THE FIRST OCCURRENCE OF STEERING PROBLEMS - A THUMPING NOISE WHEN TURNING LEFT AND ACCELERATING - INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT, IT WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. ON 07-18-2012. I WAS DRIVING THE CAR WHEN I FELT IT WOULD NOT PROPERLY TURN- HAD TO FORCE STEERING WHEEL. ON 07-19-2012 MY WIFE WAS DRIVING AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MAKE A 130 DEGREE RIGHT TURN. SHE WOUND UP IN THE OPPOSING LANE OF TRAFFIC. THE CAR WAS REPAIRED THE NEXT DAY, THE STEERING RACK GEAR HAD TO BE REPLACED. THIS VEHICLE HAD ONLY 39,002 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THE CAR WAS NEVER IN AN ACCIDENT AND WAS VERY WELL MAINTAINED. I TALKED TO CUSTOMER SERVICE AT GENERAL MOTORS, PONTIAC DIVISION BECAUSE I FEEL THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN WITH SUCH LOW MILEAGE. I ASKED FOR SOME REIMBURSEMENT, WHICH THEY REFUSED, BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS TO GET THIS REPORTED. I HOPE THIS GETS LOOKED INTO AND PERHAPS A LIFE SAVED. THANK YOU *TR

ON HIGHWAY TRAVELING OUT OF TOWN AVERAGING 60-65 IN MY 2007 PONTIAC G6 I LIGHTLY PRESSED BRAKES APPROACHING AN EXIT FOR GAS WHEN A THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED SHAKING. I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKES AGAIN TO STOP AFTER EXITING THE HIGHWAY TO STOP. THE SHAKING WAS NOTICEABLY WORSE. I PURCHASED THE CAR USED ABOUT 2 MONTHS BEFORE THIS EVENT SO I DID NOT EXPECT ANY BRAKE ISSUES. AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS MY WIFE MENTIONED A NOISE FROM THE BRAKES. I HAD THE BRAKES INSPECTED AND THE SERVICE PERSON SAID THE BRAKES WERE FINE BUT MY FRONT AND REAR STRUTS WERE BAD. I ASKED HIM IF THIS WOULD CAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL TO SHAKE WHEN BREAKING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND HE SAID YES. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP OF PURCHASE AND THEY DID A BRAKE INSPECTION EVEN THOUGH I ASKED TO HAVE THE STRUTS LOOKED AT AND STATED THAT ROTORS WERE WARPED. AFTER THIS I SEARCHED FOR PROBLEMS WITH THE STEERING ON THE MODEL AND YEAR OF MY CAR. I FOUND THOUSANDS OF CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS OF ALL THE SYMPTOMS AND ISSUES I WAS HAVING. I DID FIND A SERVICE BULLETIN ABOUT THE INTERMEDIATE SHAFT IN THE STEERING.TECHNICAL BULLETIN NO.: 06-02-32-007G DATE: APRIL 05, 2010 SUBJECT: CLUNK, KNOCK OR RATTLE NOISE FROM FRONT OF VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING OR TURNING OVER BUMPS AT LOW SPEEDS (DIAGNOSE NOISE AND PERFORM OUTLINED REPAIR) MODELS: 2004-2006 CHEVROLET MALIBU MAXX 2004-2008 CHEVROLET MALIBU CLASSIC 2008-2010 CHEVROLET MALIBU 2005-2010 PONTIAC G6 2007-2010 SATURN AURA SUPERCEDE: THIS BULLETIN IS BEING REVISED TO UPDATE THE PARTS INFORMATION FOR THE BOLT. PLEASE DISCARD CORPORATE BULLETIN NUMBER 06-02-32-007F (SECTION 02 - STEERING. AT THIS POINT I BELIEVE A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED ON THE ENTIRE FRONT SUSPENSION INCLUDING THE FACTORY ROTORS WHICH WARP WITHIN 2K-3K MILES. RE-SURFACING THESE ROTORS INCREASES THE BRAKING PROBLEM. AND A NON-METALLIC CERAMIC BRAKE PAD SHOULD BE INSTALLED BY A GM CERTIFIED SERVICE DEPARTMENT. *TT

I CURRENTLY OWN A 2007 PONTIAC G6 SEDAN 4 CYLINDER. WHEN THE WEATHER GETS HOTTER AND TOWARDS THE SUMMER MONTHS, EVERY TIME I START UP THE CAR MAKE A TURN, I GET AN ILLUMINATION ON MY RADIO THAT READS "POWER STEERING" AND MY POWER STEERING SHUTS OFF, MAKING IT EXTREMELY HARD TO TURN THE WHEEL AND NAVIGATE THE VEHICLE. MULTIPLE TIMES IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE TRYING TO TURN ONTO A BUSY ROAD, CAUSING NEAR ACCIDENTS DUE TO SUDDEN LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. I HAVE CALLED THE PONTIAC DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY HAD HEARD NOTHING OF THIS ISSUE. FROM READING MANY ARTICLES ONLINE, I FIND THAT VERY HARD TO BELIEVE AND I THINK THIS IS AN ISSUE MANY PEOPLE WOULD LIKE TO BE SOLVED. THEY ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE G5 SERIES FOR POWER STEERING FAILURE, BUT NOT THE G6 WHICH SEEMS TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS. *TR

THIS CAR MAKES A THUMPING OR CLUNCKING SOUND EVERYTIME I TURN... I HAVE READY A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS HAPPENING TO THIS CAR AND WANTED TO KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND IF IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE, BECAUSE I PURCHASED THIS CAR USED AND I DIDN'T HEAR IT WHEN I TEST DROVE IT BUT NOW IT IS BOTHERING ME. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS PROBLEM CAN BE FIXED PERMANATELY OR NOT. CAR HAS 97,000 MILES ON IT AND IS STILL IN GREAT CONDITION AND I LOVE THE WAY IT LOOKS . I DON'T WANT TO GIVE THE CAR UP BUT I WILL NOT ENDANGER THE LIVES OF MY FAMILY OR MYSELF. THANKS *TR

I WAS TURNING MY 07 PONTIAC G6 GOING APPROXIMATELY 10-15 MPH AND THE WHOLE STEERING SYSTEM LOCKED UP, THANKFULLY NO ONE WAS IN THE OTHER LANE WHILE TURNING SINCE MY TURN NOW HAD TO BE WIDE. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE DISPLAY SAID "POWER STEERING", I PULLED CAR OVER TO THE SIDE AND TURNED HAZARD LIGHTS ON. I MADE A PHONE CALL TO MY BROTHER WHO TOLD ME TO TRY TO GET TO THE NEAREST PARKING LOT, I WAS EXTREMELY UPSET AT THIS TIME AS EVEN DRIVING STRAIGHT TO THE NEAREST LOT WAS HARD FOR ME TO CONTROL AT A LOW SPEED. I MADE IT AND PHYSICALLY COULD NOT TURN CAR INTO A SPOT. MY BROTHER CAME TO PICK ME UP. THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF FOR ABOUT A HALF HOUR, WHEN HE RESTARTED THE CAR THE POWER STEERING SEEMED TO WORK AGAIN, AS I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE HOME, HE DROVE IT HOME FOR ME WHICH WAS ABOUT A HALF HOUR AWAY. TURNING TO THE RIGHT FEELS LIKE IT WANTS TO GIVE OUT AGAIN. I CONTACTED GM PONTIAC WHO SAID TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER TO HAVE INSPECTED. TODAY I TOOK IN AND WAITING FOR A CALL BACK FROM THE SERVICE CENTER. I HAVE READ MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS REGARDING SAME ISSUE AND I AM TRULY AFRAID TO DRIVE CAR AS THIS IS BOUND TO HAPPEN AGAIN, I HAVE 3 CHILDREN THAT I WILL NOT PUT IN CAR NOW UNTIL SOMETHING IS DONE. GM NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECTIVE PRODUCT THAT THEY MADE. AS OF RIGHT NOW THEY ARE TELLING ME NO RECALL ON THIS YEAR AND MODEL. SERVICE PERSON AT THE DEALER SAID SOME VIN# ARE INCLUDED IN THE OTHER MODEL/YEAR RECALLS HE WOULD HAVE TO CHECK MINE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE LIVES ARE LOST DUE TO THIS. I PAID MY CAR OFF UPFRONT WHEN I PURCHASED IT AND DO NOT FEEL THE NEED TO PAY FOR IT AGAIN. ANYTHING YOU CAN DO TO HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANKS. *TR

MY PASSENGER SIDE LOW BEAMS WERE BURNING OUT, I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER IN DEC (2010), ONE YEAR LATER, IT'S BACK. I NOTICED THE CONNECTION WAS COMPLETELY SHORTED AND BURNT. PROB WON'T LAST MUCH LONGER. THIS PAST AUG (2011) MY FUEL PUMP STARTED LEAKING FUEL, IT WAS THE ASSEMBLY WHICH HAD A HAIRLINE FRACTURE WHICH WAS UNREPAIRABLE, HAD TO REPLACE THE COMPLETE ASSEMBLY FOR $350. FOR THE LAST COUPLE YEARS MY STEERING DOES A POPPING SOUND AND FEEL WHEN I MAKE SLOW SHARP TURNS (AS IN U-TURNS). THE DEALER TEMPORARY FIXED IT ONCE, BUT IT RETURNED BEFORE I COULD EVEN FORGET ABOUT IT. THEIR SOLUTION WAS GREASING THE STEERING JOINT. MY AC/HEATING FAN WAS MAKING A TICKING SOUND WHILE IT WAS ON A COUPLE YEARS BACK (AROUND NOV 2009), THE DEALER FIXED THE TICKING BUT IT RETURNED LAST YEAR. THOUGH IT'S NOT AS LOUD OR ANNOYING AS BEFORE I'VE LEARNED TO TUNE IT OUT, NOT TOO FUN FOR MY PASSENGERS THOUGH. *TR

I WAS PULLING INTO WORK WHEN MY CAR FILED WITH SMOKE IN CAB AND COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I TRIED TO PULL INTO A PARK SPOT TO GET OUT TO SAFETY. THE POWER STEERING NOT WORKING, IT TOOK EVERYTHING I HAD TO MAKE THE TURN. THE RUBBER POWER STEERING LINE WAS INSTALLED AGAINST THE EXHAUST UP NEAR THE FIRE WALL AND HAD BURNED THOUGH .ALL THE POWER STEERING FLUID WAS POURING ONTO THE HOT EXHAUST. I CALLED GM TRYING TO GET THEM TO FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE AS I AM NOT THE FIRST ONE WITH IT AND WONT BE THE LAST. TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALER MOSS BROTHERS IN MORENO VALLEY CA. SO FAIR THERE ONLY CONCERN IS MAKING A FEW BUCKS FROM THE REPAIR. I WILL KEEP YOU ALL UPDATED AS TO HOW GM IS GOING TO HANDLE CORRECTING THE SAFETY HAZARD IN THEIR DESIGN. *TR

THE VEHICLE'S RUBBER POWER STEERING RETURN HOSE IS RESTING AGAINST THE UNDERSIDE OF THE EXHAUST PIPE. THERE IS A REFLECTANT COVERED FABRIC AS A RADIANT BARRIER, BUT I SUSPECT IS NOT DESIGNED TO PREVENT HEAT (FROM RIGHT AFTER THE PRE-CATALYTIC CONVERTER) FROM SEEPING THROUGH DUE TO CONDUCTION. I HAVE MADE AN INSPECTION THROUGH MY FINGERS AS THERE IS NO WAY OF SEEING THE DAMAGE UNTIL THE HOSE IS REMOVED. THE REFLECTIVE SURFACE MATERIAL IS CLEARLY OFF OF THE REST OF THE MATERIAL AND IT FEELS TO BE COMPLETELY BURNED THROUGH. THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING FLUID COULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC FOR TWO REASONS. FIRST WAS THE VIRTUAL LOSS OF STEERING (LUCKILY MY WIFE WAS NOT DRIVING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED). SECOND, THAT POWER STEERING FLUID COULD HAVE CAUSED A VEHICLE FIRE HAD IT HIT A HOT EXHAUST INSTEAD OF THE ONE THAT WAS BARELY WARM AFTER LESS THAN 1/2 MILE OF DRIVING. JUST THE SAME, IT CREATED A LOT OF SMOKE CONVINCING MY WIFE THAT HER CAR WAS EITHER ON FIRE OR ABOUT TO BE. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE HOSE ROUTING AND I'LL BE MAKING REPAIRS THIS WEEK-END. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF I CAN BE OF ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER. IT IS HARD FOR ME TO FATHOM THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED TO HAVE THIS RUBBER HOSE CONTAINING A FLAMMABLE FLUID TO REST AGAINST A HOT EXHAUST PIPE. THIS IS EITHER A DESIGN DEFECT OR SOMEBODY FORGOT TO ENSURE CLEARANCE DURING ASSEMBLY. GM SEEMED UNCONCERNED WHEN I PHONED THEM THIS EVENING. *TR....UPDATED 06/28/13 *BF UPDATED 07/2/2013 *JS

THE STEERING ON MY CAR FIRST STARTED ACTING UP SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOOK FOREVER TO LOOK AT IT. FINALLY THEY SAID THAT THEY WERE NOT EXACTLY SURE BUT THAT THE INSTRUCTIONS SAID TO FIRST FIX THE STEERING MOTOR AND THEN THE PROBLEM SHOULD BE RESOLVED WITH JUST THAT. SO I HAD THE STEERING MOTOR REPLACED ON MY CAR, WHICH COST OVER $600 DOLLARS TO FIX EVEN THOUGH THEY CLAIMED THEY WERE GOING TO TRY TO HELP ME GET A GOOD DEAL. I HAD THE MOTOR FIXED AND WITHIN A WEEK AND A HALF OR SO THE POWER STEERING WAS GOING OUT AGAIN. IT WOULD GO OUT WHEN I WAS DRIVING AND WOULD NOT COME BACK ON WHEN I WOULD TURN OFF AND RESTART THE CAR. IT WAS VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS TO DRIVE LIKE THAT. IT WOULD GO OUT AT ANY GIVEN SECOND AND ON TURNS. I TOOK MY CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND ASKED THEM TO REPLACE THE MOTOR AGAIN SINCE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY BUT THEY WOULD NOT DO THAT BECAUSE THEY SAID THAT I NEEDED A STEERING COLUMN NOW. I HAD TO HAVE THE STEERING COLUMN REPLACED BECAUSE A SENSOR IN THE COLUMN HAD WENT OUT AND THIS COST ME MORE MONEY. I WAS VERY UPSET BECAUSE THAT COULD HAVE BEEN THE PROBLEM ALL ALONG AND I COULD HAVE HAD THAT FIXED IN THE BEGINNING AND NOT RISKED MY SAFETY WITH DRIVING AROUND WITH A CAR THAT?S STEERING GOES OUT. ALSO I COULD HAVE SAVED MONEY. I SPENT OVER $900 TO GET ALL OF THE STEERING REPLACED. I AM A COLLEGE STUDENT AND I DO NOT HAVE MONEY LIKE THAT TO BE SPENDING AND THE DEALERSHIP SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN ME A BETTER DEAL LIKE THEY MADE IT SOUND LIKE THEY WERE GOING TO DO. I BOUGHT MY PONTIAC BECAUSE I NEEDED A GOOD, RELIABLE CAR BUT THE STEERING PROBLEM IS A DANGEROUS AND COSTLY ONE. THE 2006 MODEL OF MY CAR WAS RECALLED BUT THEY REFUSED TO TAKE MINE AS A RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT WAS TECHNICALLY BUILT IN 2006. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND I WOULD HOPE PONTIAC GM WOULD HELP OUT THEIR CUSTOMERS WITH THIS PROBLEM. *TR

MY POWER STEERING BEGAN TO GO OUT. AT FIRST IT WOULD JUST GO OUT EVERY THREE TO FOUR DAYS AND THEN IT BEGAN TO GO OUT THREE TO FOUR TIMES EACH TIME I DROVE IT. IT WOULD GO OUT WHEN I WAS TURNING ON THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING. I WOULD HAVE TO PUT ON MY EMERGENCY BLINKERS, TURN OFF MY CAR, RE-START IT, AND BEGIN TO DRIVE AGAIN UNTIL IT WOULD GO OUT AGAIN AND I WOULD HAVE TO DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN. IT GOT TO THE POINT WHERE I FELT UNSAFE TO DRIVE MY CAR SO I HAD TO GET IT FIXED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT COST ME OVER SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS TO FIX THE STEERING MOTOR. IT TOOK THE DEALERSHIP OVER A WEEK AND A HALF TO FIX THE PROBLEM WHEN THEY SAID IT WOULD ONLY TAKE ABOUT THREE HOURS TO PUT THE NEW PART IN. I WAS WITHOUT A CAR FOR THAT WHOLE TIME AND WAS ALSO LEFT TO PAY THE LARGE PAYMENT. GM DID NOT OFFER MUCH CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE IN HELPING ME TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND MY WARRANTY FOR THE MOTOR I HAD TO PURCHASE IS ONLY FOR 12,000 MILES OR ONE YEAR. I AM FEARFUL THAT THE PART WILL GO OUT AGAIN AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY YET ANOTHER $600. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2006 MODEL OF MY CAR, AND, ALTHOUGH MY CAR WAS MADE IN JULY OF 2006, GM REFUSED TO PUT MY CAR ON RECALL BECAUSE THEY SAID THAT IT WAS CONSIDERED A 2006. I FIND THIS UNFAIR AND WRONG. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM THAT COULD CAUSE MUCH HARM. GM SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THE PROBLEM AND ALSO FOR HELPING OUT THOSE PEOPLE WHO HAD TO FIX THE PROBLEM ON THEIR OWN.

I TURNED INTO A GAS STATION AND THE STEERING LOCKED UP ON MY 2007 PONTIAC G6 4 CYLINDER ON OCT 26 2010. THE STEERING WAS REPLACED AFTER WE USED WHAT LITTLE WE HAD IN SAVINGS.

I OWN A 2007 PONTIAC G6 (BOUGHT AS NEW IN JULY 2007). THE STEERING COLUMN IS MAKING VERY LOAD CLUNKING NOISES WHEN TURNED AT A STOP OR AT LOW SPEEDS. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THE STEERING WILL FAIL WHILE DRIVING. I AM ALSO DISAPPOINTED (TO PUT IT MILDLY) THAT DESPITE THIS PROBLEM BEING VERY COMMON AMONG OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME VEHICLE AND HAVING READ 100'S OF THE SAME COMPLAINT THAT GM HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL ON THE STEERING BOX PROBLEM. I KNOW THE US GOVERNMENT (AKA THE TAXPAYER!) OWNS GM VIA BAILOUT AND I'M SURE THEY DON'T WANT THE NEGATIVE PUBLICITY OF THE AUTO-MAKER HAVING TO FIX A DESIGN FLAW, BUT YOU ARE DEALING WITH LIVES HERE. IF THERE ARE FATALITIES DUE TO NOT FIXING THE PROBLEM, DO YOU THINK THAT PUBLICITY WILL BE ANY LESS SEVERE (ASSUMING IT EVER GETS REPORTED).

MY PONTIAC 2007 G6 AS VIBRATION IN THE SEARING WHEEL WHILE DRIVING. PONTIAC HAS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. I THINK IT SHOULD BE A RECALL INSTEAD OF THE CUSTOMER PAYING FOR IT. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT OTHER CUSTOMERS AND I COULD CREATE. I HAD GOTTEN AN ESTIMATE AND THE BILL WAS FOR EIGHT HUNDRED PLUS DOLLARS TO MAKE THE REPAIRS AND I STILL HAVE THE WARRANTY. PONTIAC STILL WONT FIX IT. I NOTICED THE PROBLEM IN NOV. OF 2008. BEFORE I COULD GET IT LOOKED AT MY CAR WAS INVOLVED IN A HIT AND RUN. THE HIT AND RUN OCCURRED ON THE 12TH OF DEC, 2008. *TR

CLUNKING IN STEERING WHEN EXITING THE TURN. CLUNKING ALSO HAPPENS WHEN I STOP AND START MOVING, ESPECIALLY IF I GO TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT. REALLY LOUD, YOU CAN HEAR IT EVEN WITH THE MUSIC PLAYING. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE MADE A KNOCKING SOUND WHEN TURNING RIGHT AND LEFT. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED AN INTERMEDIATE SHAFT. THE CONTACT FEELS THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE NOISE WAS VERY UNFAMILIAR. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 48,403 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,000.

WHEN TURNING SLOWLY MY CAR MAKES A CLUNKING SOUND THAT I HAVE FOUND OUT TO BE THE RACK AND PINION. I HAD IT REPLACED AND IT IS ALREADY DOING IT AGAIN. I HAVE HEARD THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND TO BRING UP MY SITUATION TO YOU. THANKS *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6 CONVERTIBLE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE IN REVERSE, THE CONTACT NOTICED SMOKE AND THEN FLAMES. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, IT WAS CONCLUDED THAT THE STEERING COMPONENT WAS THE SOURCE OF THE FAILURE. SHE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE RACK AND PINION AND STEERING HOSE AT THE COST OF $800. THE MANUFACTURER DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 41,000.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO TURN THE STEERING COLUMN, THE CONTACT HEARD A LOUD NOISE AND THE STEERING BECAME DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL PRIOR TO THE FAILURES. IN ADDITION, THE BRAKE PEDAL PULSATES ABNORMALLY WHEN IT IS DEPRESSED. THE ROTORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN INSPECTED TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WOULD NOT ASSIST BECAUSE THE VEHICLE EXCEEDED ITS WARRANTY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

SQUEAK IN STEERING WHEEL OR COLUMN. IT ONLY HAPPENS AT SLOW SPEEDS WHEN TURNING. ALREADY HAD INTERMEDIATE SHAFT GREASED. SOUNDS LIKE SQUEAKY WINDSHIELD WIPERS. IT'S LIKE SOMETHING RUBBING IN STEERING WHEEL, I FIRST THOUGHT MAYBE THE SIR COIL. CONCERNED ABOUT POSSIBLE AIRBAG MALFUNCTION. TOOK INTO DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT'S JUST PLASTIC OR RUBBER RUBBING IN STEERING COLUMN AND NOT TO BE CONCERNED & SQUEAKS ARE NOT COVERED BY EXTENDED WARRANTY. I HAVE NOTICED THIS PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET WITH OTHER PONTIAC'S AND IT'S EITHER BEEN THE SIR COIL OR SOME CASES EVEN THE WHOLE RACK AND PINION. IT'S VERY ANNOYING. *TR

MY PONTIAC G-6 HAS STEERING PROBLEMS. IT STARTED OUT MAKING THIS POPPING NOISE WHENEVER I TURNED A SHARP TURN. NOW THE POPPING IS GETTING WORSE. I WAS INFORMED THROUGH A GUY AT WORK WHO HAS AN 08' G-6 THAT THE PROBLEM IS IN THE STEERING KNUCKLE. HE HAS TAKEN HIS TO THE DEALERSHIP COUNTLESS TIMES TO GET IT REPLACED AND THE NEW PARTS JUST KEEP GOING BAD. HE TOLD ME THE PROBLEM WAS BECAUSE OF LACK OF LUBRICATION, BUT YET THERE ARE NO GREASE ZERKS TO AT GREASE. WHAT A VERY POOR DESIGN, WHAT IGNORANCE, ESPECIALLY THIS DAY AND AGE. ITS COMMON SENSE THAT MOVING METAL PARTS NEED LUBRICATION. I WAS TOLD THAT THE NEW PROPOSAL TO FIX IT WAS TO PUT A PLASTIC SHROUD AROUND THE KNUCKLE, PUMPED FULL OF GREASE, AND JUST HOPE AND PRAY IT WORKS. I'M NO MECHANIC BUT THAT SEEMS PRETTY CRAPPY IF YOU ASK ME. I HAVEN'T HAD THE TIME TO TAKE MY CAR IN TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT YET, I'M HOPING I DON'T HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS OUT OF MY OWN POCKET, BECAUSE OF PONTIAC'S STUPIDITY. I'M HOPING THAT THEY COME OUT WITH A RECALL SOON BEFORE THIS PROBLEM CAUSES A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *TR

AT APPROXIMATELY 35,980 MILES I BEGAN GETTING 'CLUNKING' NOISES FROM MY STEERING AT LOW SPEEDS AND WHILE TURNING. THIS IS APPARENTLY A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE PONTIAC G6. IT IS APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING COLUMN. UNFORTUNATELY I WILL HAVE OVER 36,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE BY THE TIME I CAN GET IT TO A DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT WHICH IF NOT ADDRESSED WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH IF NOT ADDRESSED BY YOUR OFFICE. A REDESIGN AND RECALL IS REQUIRED FOR THIS ISSUE. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE FOR ACTION TO BE TAKEN? ADDITIONALLY, THE FACTORY BRAKES ON THE VEHICLE ARE VERY CHEAP. VENTED ROTORS ARE NEEDED BECAUSE THEY WARP AT APPROXIMATELY 20,000 MILES DUE TO HEAT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. WHILE DRIVING LESS THAN 70 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPED WHEN SWITCHING LANES. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE DEALER MADE THE NECESSARY REPAIRS. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION, THE STEERING WHEEL MADE A LOUD CLUNKING NOISE WHEN IT WAS TURNED. THE DEALER REPAIRED THE STEERING COLUMN. WHILE TRAVELING LESS THAN 70 MPH ON ANOTHER OCCASION, THE ENGINE MADE EXTREMELY LOUD NOISES, ESPECIALLY WHILE IDLING. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN AND CURRENT MILEAGE IS LESS THAN 10,000.

AS A CONSUMER I AM WRITING YOU THIS LETTER TO LODGE A COMPLAINT FOR THE CAR/LEMON I HAVE BEEN LEASING. THE TYPE OF CAR I AM LEASING IS A 2007 PONTIAC G6 4 DOOR SEDAN, #. SINCE LEASING THIS VEHICLE I HAVE MANY CONCERNS OF NOT ONLY MY OWN SAFETY BUT THE SAFETY OF OTHER PEOPLE ON THE ROAD. HERE ARE THE FOLLOWING ISSUES SINCE LEASING THIS CAR: 1.REPLACED SIGNAL SWITCH LOCATED ON STEERING COLUMN ON 1/16/08 2.REPLACED RIGHT VISOR FOR MIRROR ON PASSENGER SIDE OF CAR 1/16/08 3.REPLACED BROKEN CABLE FOR RIGHT REAR WINDOW REGULATOR ON 3/14/08 4.REPLACED STEERING COLUMN ON 7/28/08 5.REPLACED FRONT BRAKES WITH HIGH END PADS ESTIMATED DATE 8/08 6.REPLACED REAR LEFT BULB FOR BRAKE LIGHTS ESTIMATED DATE 10/08 7.ABOUT A MONTH AFTER STEERING COLUMN WAS REPLACED THE STEERING COLUMN AGAIN WAS MAKING A CLICKING SOUND WHEN TURNING RIGHT AND LEFT AT A SLOW RATE OF SPEED. 8.INSTEAD OF REPLACING THE STEERING COLUMN THEY CHOSE TO LUBE INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT INSTEAD ON 1/20/09 AND I WILL HAVE TO KEEP COMING IN WHEN THE LUBE WEARS OFF!! REALLY ME HAVING TO COME IN EVERY MONTH OR SO!! THAT WAS THEIR RESPONSE TO ME!! 9.REPLACED RADIO BECAUSE IT DIDN?T COME ON WHEN I TURNED ON THE CAR THE DISPLAY WAS BLANK. WOULD EVENTUALLY TURN ON WHEN IT WANTED TO REPLACED ON 1/20/09 ALSO IN RESEARCHING THE STEERING COLUMN PROBLEM SOME PEOPLES STEERING WHEELS HAVE LOCKED UP AND THEY WERE ALMOST INVOLVED IN ACCIDENTS AND SAID IN THERE COMPLAINT DOES SOMEBODY HAVE TO BE KILLED BEFORE GM HAS A RECALL ON THESE CARS?? IT HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE SINCE THE FIRST MODEL YEAR 2005 HAS COME OUT. PER DOMINIC TORRES MY SALES REP THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE BUT THERE HAVE NOT BEEN VERY MANY COMPLAINTS LODGED FOR ANY RECALL. PER DOMINIC IT IS BECAUSE THE STEERING COLUMN IS ELECTRICAL INSTEAD OF USING FLUID AND THE DESIGN WAS CHANGED IN THE 2008 MODEL YEAR. GM HAS CONTACTED ME AND SAID THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO LEASE A NEW CAR TO ME TO REPLACE THIS ONE. IT WILL BE RE-POED SHORTLY. *TR

STEERING MUCH LIKE OTHERS COMPLAIN HAVING IT SERVICED 2X NOW FOR GREASE REPACKING AT 35,000 KM AND AGAIN AT 50,000 AFTER HEARING CLUNKS. THANKFULLY IT IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, SALESMAN HAS ADVISED MY A REDESIGN WILL PROBABLY BE DONE SOON, I HAVE MADE '!@#$% SURE THAT SHOULD THIS PROBLEM CONTINUE THEY WILL BE REPACKING IT AFTER THE WARRANTY FOR FREE AND IF AND WHEN A REDESIGN IS AVAILABLE IT WILL BE PUT IN FREE OF CHARGE. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 PONTIAC G6...WITH 35,000 WE STARTED HEARING A CLICKING IN THE STEERING...TOOK IT IN...DEALER SAID THE GREASE HAD WORKED ITS WAY OUT OF THE INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT....INSTEAD OF FIXING IT WITH AN UPDATED OR IMPROVED DESIGN THEY PUT A NEW GREASE PACK IN IT....WHEN I ASKED WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE GREASE COMES OUT AGAIN..HE SAID BRING IT IN AND THEY WILL RE-PACK IT.....OF COURSE AT MY EXPENSE.....THIS SURE SOUNDS LIKE A DESIGN DEFECT.......I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM...BUT GM (OF COURSE) WONT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT TILL SOMEONE'S STEERING FREEZES UP AND THEY GET KILLED...I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A GM GUY....BUT IM DONE WITH THEM...NEVER AGAIN! *TR

NOTICED A KNOCK WHEN TURNING EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT AT 40,000 HAD NOTICED THAT THE FRONT RIGHT TIRE WAS WEARING MUCH FASTER THAN THE OTHERS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AT 44,000 SINCE THE KNOCKING SEEMED TO BE WORSE THEY ADVISED ME THE STEERING SHAFT NEEDS REPLACED COSTING ME $369.00 TOTAL PARTS & LABOR SINCE NOT UNDER WARRANTY. HAVE LOOKED UP THE STEERING ISSUES AND THEY ARE VERY COMMON IN THE PONTIAC G6 I FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD BE A RECALLED ITEM AS IT CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

I HAVE HAD SEVERAL ISSUES WITH MY 2007 PONTIAC G6 THE STEERING WHEEL SOMETIMES LOCKS WHILE STEERING AND HAS GOTTEN EXTREMELY STIFF WHILE TURN THAT I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO COMPLETE THE TURN. THE STEERING WHEEL SOMETIMES WILL MOVE FROM LEFT TO RIGHT ABOUT HALF INCH EACH WHILE AT A COMPLETE STOP AND IN PARK. THE FRONT SUSPENSION SEEMS TO BE LOOSE IT CLUCKS AND KNOCKS WHILE TURNING OR HITTING BUMPS THE STEERING WHEEL ALSO HAS A KNOCK IN IT. SOMETIMES WHEN A PASSENGER IS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THE SEAT DOES NOT NOTICE IT AND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT SAYS OFF AND THE SEAT BELT LIGHT DOESN'T COME ON. *TR

RECENTLY MY PONTIAC G6 HAS BEEN HAVING POWER STEERING FAILURE. WHENEVER I SEEM TO TURN THE CAR TO THE LEFT THE STEERING WILL LOCK UP. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE PONTIAC THEY SAID IT WAS THE STEERING COLUMN. THIS HAS BEEN A PERSISTENT PROBLEM. I WORRY THAT IT MIGHT LOCK UP AND CAUSE AND ACCIDENT. *CN

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 PONTIAC G6. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AT 10 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO TURN. SUDDENLY, THE STEERING WHEEL COMPLETELY LOCKED AND THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE. SHE WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO A NEARBY SERVICE STATION AND LEFT THE VEHICLE THERE FOR THREE DAYS. THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 24,000.

UNDER GOOD, DRY ROAD CONDITIONS ON A FREEWAY, A VEHICLE APPEARED TO BE MOVING INTO MY LANE AND COULD HAVE HIT ME. I STARTED TO BRAKE TO BACK OFF AND MOVED TO THE RIGHT OF MY LANE. THE RESULT WAS THAT THE VEHICLE FISHTAILED 4 TO 6 TIMES BEFORE I REGAINED CONTROL. THERE WAS NO COLLISION BECAUSE I REGAINED CONTROL AND OTHER DRIVERS BACKED OFF. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEIR TECHNICIAN REPLICATED THE FISHTAILING. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT PERSON SAID THAT THE COMBINATION OF THE G6 SUSPENSION, STRUTS, WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION, AND SWEPT UP DESIGN RESULTED IN THE G6 FRONT DIPPING DOWN WHEN BRAKED, LIFTING THE REAR AND LOCKING THE BRAKES. GM AND THE DEALERSHIP DID NOTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY CLAIMED THAT WAS NORMAL FOR THE VEHICLE AND THAT THE BRAKES AND STEERING CHECKED OUT AS SATISFACTORY. THE DEALERSHIP WHICH CHECKED THE CAR OUT BOUGHT THE CAR BACK FOR $3633 LESS THAN I PAID FOR THE VEHICLE A FEW MONTHS BEFORE. THE VEHICLE HAD APPROXIMATELY 2000 MILES ON IT. I BELIEVE THE BASIC VEHICLE DESIGN IS UNSAFE IF FISHTAILING OCCURS WITH A COMMON EVASIVE MANEUVER UNDER GOOD WEATHER AND ROAD CONDITIONS. *TR

THERE IS A STEERING-RELATED PROBLEM WITH MY PONTIAC G6 SEDAN. IT HAS A CLUNK OR SNAP UPON BACKING OUT OF PARKING-SPACES AND UPON MAKING TURNS FROM A DEAD-STOP. IT DOES NOT OCCUR WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I AM WORRIED THE STEERING-BOX IS BAD, AS THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED ON A FAMILY 2005 PONTIAC G6. THE BOX-ASSEMBLY HAD TO BE REPLACED. WHY AGAIN TWO YEARS LATER ON A NEWER CAR. *TR
