| 2006 | STEERING | TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 PONTIAC G6. THE CONTACT STATED THE POWER STEERING WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AS HE APPLIED THE BRAKES TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE CONTACT THEN ACCELERATED TO 25 MPH AND THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND HAD TO JUMP-START THE BATTERY IN ORDER TO START THE ENGINE. THE CONTACT PROCEEDED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACTїS RESIDENCE AND WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 175,000. |
| 2005 | STEERING | I THOUGHT IT WAS ONLY MY PONTIAC G6 THAT HAD POWER STEERING PROBLEMS, BUT IT WAS NOT. AT TIMES WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE LEFT, IT TAKES THE STRENGTH OF TWO MEN AND WHEN I TURN IT TO THE RIGHT, ITS SO LOOSE A BABY CAN TURN IT. I EVEN HAD IT BROUGHT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE TO GET IT CORRECTED AND EACH TIME THEY SAID THEY CORRECTED THE PROBLEM, BUT NEVER DID. *TR |
