As I was driving, the steering wheel felt loose. As I was coming to a stop I noticed it became extremely hard to make a right turn after stopping at the stop sign. Also I bought 2 remotes already for the vehicle and neither would work or register. And also every time I open my car door with the key the alarm goes off which is very embarrassing as I have to sit there until it stops.

While driving on the highway and approaching her exit, the electronic power steering failed and completely locked on my client's car. This is a downhill exit ramp off the highway. Her car pulled to the right and she was unable to steer her car left to follow the curvature of the exit ramp. As a result the car veered off the exit ramp, struck a pole and began to spin out of control. The car continued to spin down into the embankment and came to rest after landing on its side. The car stopped on the driver's side wheels as if it was about to roll over. The car eventually fell down on all four wheels and was facing oncoming traffic. There was a recall issued on the electronic power steering but parts to correct the problem were not made available to my client.

After I had an alignment and tire rotation, that's when I notice that the steering wheel felt different than before. It felt like the wheels would glide left and right on street & highway eventhough I had no movement on the steering wheel. I felt that the steering was not stable. I told it back to the shop to get it checked out again. Repair shop had told me it had nothing to do with the alignment. They test drove it and also felt the same thing I did. Took it in again so they can have more time to check it and they could not diagnose or pin point the problem. The warning indicator light gave me a message indicating steering wheel. I also noticed that when I make turns at intersection, the steering wheel rotation is more than it is necessary. I'm taking the car back Monday again so they can continue to diagnose the problem. I never had this problem for 10yrs I drove it. Is there recall on this issue?

In 2012, I took car to wright GMC in wexford, pa for a recall on the steering. It had no problems at this point. They performed recall service and it has been all problems ever since. I took it back and they replaced steering box. I took it back again in 2013 because it developed a "knocking noise" in the steering especially after a turn when you bring the wheel back. They gave me a list of needed items, rear brakes, rotors, front end tie rod end so I asked about the noise and he said, we didn't get that far yet. That it was over one year and not covered by recall. He said they start looking for a problem in brakes first and work their way to steering. I laughed with anger and left. I did take vehicle to a mechanic who did replace brakes and rotors but said they easily weren't the cause and were normal and definitely not needed to be changed immediately. The tie rod end was fine and he couldn't figure out what they meant. They were frauduently abusing their service which happens often with pa. Inspections as well. This mechanic said the steering had a lot of play and noise but would have to take it all apart to find and didn't see the sense since there are recalls on this. I have been waiting to be informed of the recall from dorman on the shaft into the U-joint that started September 2014 but I never have been notified. I have a couple other recalls to get repaired but have been more concerned with the steering. It has worked well so I figured it wasn't a safety issue but recently, it got louder and the wheel did not turn properly. It is like it slipped but is working again. This car is garage kept with under 30K miles on it. I plan on changing dealer to crivelli in mckees rocks as I will never go to wright again. Please advise? I look forward to hearing from you and appreciate your attention to this matter.

My power steering wheel keep locking up on me. I heard the same from others about the Pontiac G6 doing the same thing and I feel this is a safety issue, because if in traffic your wheel can lock up on you doing 60 miles per hour on a freeway and not be able to turn your wheel is high priority maintenance problem. Please take this message into consideration as winter time is approaching thanks.

Recall14E044000 we recently took my daughters G6 in to a GM dealer for this steering issue. We have play in the steering and the noise it makes is very scary. Driving is sloppy and at times depending on roads can make the car go all over the road. They have told us that they would not fix it under this recall. However the part we are having to replace is the middle shaft. This is my 19 yr old daughter driving this car why were we refused to have this fixed under this recall?
