Power steering in my 2006 Pontiac G6 stops working while driving. This issue is described in tsb 10183A, which states that the issue will be fixed at no charge under a 10year/150,000 mile warranty. While I have the issue of loss of power steering described in the tsb, GM will not honor the warranty for my vehicle. My vehicle is approximately 9.5 years old and 140,000 miles.

I am coming to you because I had my car serviced 04/23/2015 to have two recalls fixed and it was ok for a couple of months when again the power steering started to malfunction again now its worst than before as soon as I start the car the steering wheel gets so hard I can`T move it I even hit my other car while backing out of the drive way because I lost all control of the steering wheel. GM is sendind me to the same dealer to get a diagnostic but I was informed that it has to be paid out of my pocket wich I find it unfair because they are the same problems I was experiencing before now I have stopped driving my car because I am afraid to have a worst accident. The campaign id number for the recall is 14V153

The air bag warning will come on and off during drives. The air bags will turn off and turn on throughout drives. I have a small child now and this really concerns me. Air bag problem has been occurring for a few years now but happens almost every drive now. This happens when car is in motion on a city street, highway, turning and when sitting still. I selected steering because the steering wheel has been replaced by dealership a few years ago from a recall. Electric steering would stop working whenever it wanted to. Never worked normal since it was replaced. This happens when car is in motion on a city street, highway, turning and when sitting still. I also selected electrical because of the rear brake light. It was recalled due to a brake light that may or may not work when applied and took to dealership to have corrected. Since it was looked at we have noticed rear brake lights not working all the time. I've only noticed when sitting still in driveway.

We never had a problem with loss of power steering but did see the power steering message on the display flash a few times. We decided to bring the car to the dealer to get the 3 recalls done on it of which one of them was for the power steering message. After the recall was done we went to pick up the car and the power steering did not work intermittently. We brought it back to the dealer and they changed a different part and charged us $734.26 and said the second part was not covered under the recall. I also contacted GM headquarters and they told me the same thing. Since the part changed in the recall actually broke our power steering maybe they were changing the wrong cheaper part and billing the customer to fix the issue. We did not have an accident as the loss of power steering was less than a minute at a time and it was very hard to turn but the car still could be turned.

I had a recall done for the steering. Unfortunately, the problem was not solved by the part replacement. In fact, I continue to lose steering at low speed and during park. The recall was to resolve the issue. GM replaced a defective part with another defective part. The problem is worse now. When is GM going to fix the issue. This is a safety issue for me and my family not to mention to the public. GM are you for real? please get your act together!

I was going through an S curve on a local road down the street and when I was coming out of the curve the wheel jerked to the left I heard the car chime and I lost the steering. Was unable to get vehicle back on the road fast enough and at the end of the curve was a park parking lot. Luckily the side I had to swerve into was empty and no kids were in the area on the bike path because I ended up going into the grass. After I got the car stopped I shut it off, turned it back on and it was fine. As soon as I started to turn left to head back home boom car chimed and lost power steering again. Luckily this time I was expecting it and was able to keep control as I was turning around to head back home. I was able to nurse the car back the short mile back to the house then called a tow truck to take it to the dealer. I got a call from the dealer the next day stating that they had fixed the recalls on it but also said that the reason it went out ( short in the power steering control module) was a recall item but not on my year G6. I told them that when I pulled the year on my car, it said there was a recall for the control module and they said mine was made too early in the year or something and he also said its a very very common part failure. I asked what the difference was between my steering module and the ones on recall were, and he stated the only difference was the part number and it was the same exact part. So for $900 to fix it I told them to tow it back to my house unfixed and now the car sits unused because I refuse to pay for a part that is knowingly unsafe and faulty by the manufacturer. The outcome of this could have been a lot worse had I been on a busy road. Did I mention my son was in the car with me as well? I have the invoice from the dealer but dont have a scanner.
