My 2006 Chevy Malibu's power steering is malfunctioning. At times it doesn't work when I start the car. Other times it quits working while driving. I noticed where there was a recall for power steering issues from GM. I contacted my dealer and was told after giving my VIN that it wasn't covered because of mileage. I took the car to my local repair shop and told by them to contact GM because of the recall. I contacted GM through their customer service number but was told since I wasn't the original owner that it's not covered. The current mileage is 241239.

My daughter's 2006 Chevy malibue has a steering problem. She heard the indicator bell from the dash and then her steering indicator light came on the dash. This tells us there is a problem in her steering system. She has experienced a slight loss of power steering and found it the be a little harder to steer.. your web site has indicated that there is a recall for the 2006 and 2007 Chevy malibue manufacturerd certain months. We called our local dealership to fine if my daughter's car was one of the defective cars with a power steering electrical modules. They stated no. I like to know what the difference between a car manufactured in February and one in April. There built on the same assembly line using the same parts. My complaint is that someone else with the same year and model get there car fixed and she does not. She has a low paying job and cannot really afford the repair bill. GM needs to fix all 2006 Chevy Malibu S.

The electronic steering stops working intermittently. This causes the car to steer very hard and is definitely a safety issue. I've done some research and found that there has been recalls for this exact issue. When I enter my VIN number of coarse it isn't included. The past recalls need to be extended as I see there are many others with the same issue and fall in the same category. It should not take a fatality before this happens. GM knows they have a very bad safety issue here and should held accountable for all the vehicles effected, not just a portion. This problem occurs when the vehicle is just started and while traveling down the highway. The car then has to be stopped, shut off and restarted for the issue to clear.
