Bought brand new 2007 Pontiac G6 in September of 2007. Called dealership complaint of brakes squealing around August 2009. Dealership stated it was due to metallic brakes pads and that it was normal for brakes to squeal. June 2010 out driving noticed steering column shakes at high speeds while slowing down and car was hard to stop. Stopped at nearest GM dealership shortly after. They stated it was due to me stopping to hard on the brakes over time and the rotors have warped due to the excessive heat. Noticed car is still hard to stop at regular driving speeds now. Took car back to dealership where I bought it to inspect and they told me it was my fault again and also it wasn't covered through my warranty due it being normal wear and tear. They didn't even inspect it.the car only has 24,000 miles on it now. It's still hard to stop and shakes horribly when slowing down at high speeds. Concerned for my safety, my child's safety, and other drivers safety.

Driving down the I75 expressway in heavy rain speed at the time was approx 60 miles per hour, decided to get of at the next exit until the rain cooled down. I then turned by steering wheel slightly to the right to merge onto the exit lane when the car instantly started spinning out of control...spun 5-7 times on the highway and then hit the median with the right tail end. Upon impact the steering wheel along with part of the steering column snapped off into my lap with no air bag deployment. The steering wheel was in pulled right out and was now in my lap. The car is now in repair and I have requested the parts to be saved, the steering wheel is going to be replaced. I have contacted Pontiac and we had a discussion...but I don't think they understand what happened I have not heard a word from them since the discussion.

I was started my car and the power steering default message came on. I continued to drive and noticed there was a clicking there was a clicking sound whenever the wheel was actuated. I noticed there was a lag in the movement of the wheel when the steering wheel was moved. Driving down the freeway I also noticed a constant shake in the steering wheel. Both symptoms that I had with this issue could definitely result in an accident.

2007 Pontiac G6 V4, turned car on today and warning message says power steering. The power steering is shot, we have done nothing but drive this car responsibly. Yesterday it was working fine, this morning it was not- can't imagine having the power steering stop working while driving!!!

Power steering gets really stiff and is very hard to control while driving. When stopped the steering wheel turns on its own and makes a grinding noise located in the steering column. The problem comes and goes without warning but is becoming more consistent now.

2007 Pontiac G6 - purchased new. Steering column started squeaking and squealing a year ago. Took it to dealer numerous times but they can't fix it for good. Now you can feel a rough vibration when you turn the wheel left or right and it is getting less smooth to turn - very apparent squealing now everytime the wheel is turned. About a year ago they replaced the rack and pinion but the squeak got worse and they "lubricated" something but the mechanic didn't clearly say what as he couldn't diagnose the problem. The dealer now refuses to look at it unless I pay a "diagnostic fee" and they say all they can do is lubricate it for an additional exorbitant fee. GM refuses to make the dealership investigate it further eventhough my complaints are on file at the dealer. The mechanic previously told me that as long as the complaint was on file then it will be covered by warranty even after the 3 year warranty expired but I guess that was a lie.

For the third time since I have had the car, my power steering line broke while turning yesterday. Under the hood filled with smoke and power steering fluid started leaking under the car. Each time I have had to have new coils and rack and pinions replaced. This is unsafe, dangerous and frustrating and of course GM doesn't care...go figure! updated 6/13/13

Power steering failure my 2007 Pontiac G6 4 cylinder has electronic power steering. The alert will chime, the radio readout will flash power steering, and the power steering motor will shut down. This has happened several times, including exiting the interstate approaching an exit ramp. I can re engage the power steering, by shutting off the engine, waiting a few seconds and restarting the engine.the ability to reset the power steering leads me to believe, this is a defect that should be resolved by the manufacturer by a re-call.

At low speeds the steering column makes a clunk/pop/squeak sound. The car has been checked for this twice and it still does it. It has made the sound since right after we bought the car brand new. Every time grease is put on the column it is fine for a few days then the issue comes back. Sometimes you can feel a slight bump in the wheel when it is happening.

Since the day I bought the car with 22,000 miles on it the steering wheel makes a pop/ knock sound when pulling out of a parking spot or driving slow. Now at 47,000 miles its getting worse its almost scary to drive hope I don't kill anyone. Going to take it in but seems like GM could care less...
