2006 PONTIAC G6 Complaints

My car will flash "POWER STEERING" across the stereo notification screen and alarm and the power steering locks up as you drive and makes steering your vehicle impossible and unsafe! This was a recall which was supposedly repaired at Titus Will (dealership) some years prior when the car was previously owned by Kristena Fulton but it is still very much a problem and a HUGE safety risk. I've contacted their location and was yelled at by a female who stated they had repaired it previously and would NOT help me regarding this. This vehicle is dangerous and poses not only a safety risk which could result in serious injury and death should it be driven on a freeway or highway at the time this error occurs. I've taken video of this and am asking for this to be repaired ASAP as I transport my two children and could result in injury to myself and my children.

I just cranked my car up and tried to drive it in the only thing I had done was change my battery out and I watched all the forms on how to do repair this but apparently there's been a recall and it's just going to cost the thousands of dollars we could have died

WHILE DRIVING STEERING LOCKED UP, I HAD TO STRONG ARM THE STEERING WHEEL IN ORDER TO DRIVE CAR TOO A SAFE PLACE. ONCE I CUT THE CAR OFF AND CUT IT BACK ON IT IT WAS WORKING FINE. THIS IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE I HAVE GOTTEN IT LOOKED AT AND THRU CAN'T FIND THE ISSUE HELP PLEASE

WHEN I START MY CAR MY POWER STEERING DOESN'T WORK, I CAN SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTART IT AND IT WORKS. I CAN BE DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN LOOSE MY POWER STEERING.

MY ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING GIVES OUT OCCASIONALLY FOR NO REASON. IT HAS HAPPENED WITHIN THE FIRST 5 MINUTE OF MY STARTING MY COMMUTE EACH TIME AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN WHEN DRIVING. THIS IS EXTREMELY CONCERNING, MY VEHICLES VIN NUMBER WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE ON THE SAME MAKE AS MY CAR. THE ISSUE IS FOR SURE MY POWER STEERING BECAUSE I GET A NOTIFICATION ON MY DASH SAYING THAT MY ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING IS FAILING. AFTER SHUTTING MY CAR OFF AND TURNING IT BACK ON THE ISSUE IT TYPICALLY FIXED BUT THIS IS STILL EXTREMELY CONCERNING BECAUSE IT IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY IF DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS.

THE POWER STEERING LOCKED UP WHILE DRIVING WITH MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER AND MY ONE YEAR OLD GRANDSON.

TRANSMISSION AUTOMATIC IS STARTING TO GO AND OR SLIP. HAVE TO ACCELERATE VERY SLOWLY TO GET CAR MOVING. WILL START REVING ONCE IT'S PAST 3 RPMS. HAPPENS IN MOTION, ON STREETS WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. I HEAR A NOISE WHEN SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE.

TL* THE CONTACT CALLED ON BEHALF OF HIS MOTHER WHO OWNS A 2006 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HIS MOTHER WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH AND MAKING A RIGHT TURN, THE POWER STEERING FAILED TO OPERATE AS NEEDED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WITHIN AN HOUR OF THE FAILURE, THE POWER STEERING ASSIST WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE, THE DRIVER LOST THE ABILITY TO STEER. THE DRIVER DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL UNTIL SHE WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BUT WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT BECAME AWARE OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V064000 (STEERING) AND THE EXPANDED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V153000 (STEERING) HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND CONFIRMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 159,000.

I STARTED MY CAR TO LEAVE AND THE POWER STEERING FAILED. A MESSAGE SHOWED POWER STEERING ON THE RADIO SCREEN AN DAY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TRIGGERED. I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND STARTERS IT AGAIN, POWER STEERING WAS FINE. MOVED ABOUT 10 FEET IN REVERSE AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. NOE IT DOESNT WANT TO TURN AT ALL. MY CAR IS A 2006 G6 V6 AND I HAVE HAD IT SCANNED AND NOTHING SHOWS UP?

WHILE DRIVING THE STEERING BECOMES UNRESPONSIVE AND CEASES UP. WHEN THE CAR IS RESTARTED THE STEERING IS NORMAL AGAIN FOR AWHILE BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON THIS YEAR AND MAKE OF VEHICLE AND ALSO APPEARS THAT IT WAS INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. I PUT THE LAST DATE IT HAPPENED TO MY DAUGHTER BUT THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS ABOUT 177,000 MILES ON IT BUT HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A WHILE NOW.
