I have had a recurring problem for the past 3 years, where the power steering, traction control and electronic stability control all atop working at the same time. I have sought assistance from GM. The dealership tells me the car isn't storing a code. I have provided them with pictures, but they choose not to help. The problem is a known problem on other years of the Pontiac G6. GM website says they fix the problem on a case by case basis. Picture and video proof mean nothing if the car isn't storing a code. Codes flash across display that say "check power steering " "service traction" "service ESC". only way for me to clear is to shut off car and turn back on. All peer steering is lost when problem occurs. Although I've listed. Only one date, which was the most recent, the problem occurred in 1/2014, twice in 7/2014, 12/2016 and in 3/2017.

The car was purchased in around 2012 and since has had power steering issues. The power steering went out at least once every couple months and when this happens the car would be shut off then turned back on and the problem was fixed. In the last two days the power steering shuts off every few miles while in motion on both city streets and on the highway. Would turn car off then back on and few miles later the power steering goes out. There are other recalls for the same issue, same year, make, and model. This is a serious issue that needs to be taken care of and the manufacturers should be paying for this issue.

The power steering keeps going out when you make a turn not on the highway ( yet) but in town turning on to roads and and in parking lots.

The electric power steering on the car has failed numerous times and illuminated a message on the display stating "power steering". when this happens, you lose all power steering assist which requires a significant amount of strength to maneuver the car. GM has recalled many of the other vehicles around this model year, but this VIN is not included in the recall. It is the exact same issue as previously recalled vehicles.

I started the car as usual every morning. I put the shift in reverse and bagged up. I noticed it moved a bit to freely but I proceeded to backed out of my parking space when I went to put it in drive to go forward and take my feet off breaks it would not go forward. I had to hit the breaks because it started to roll back and had my kids in my car. I then tried to put it in park and it would not go it would still roll. I then recalled this happening to my husband and having to take it to the dealer ship to get fixed with us paying almost $400 and apparently it not being done correctly. More to the point. It did not matter what gear the car was in it was stuck in reverse and I had to stick something behind it to keep it from rolling even after I got it into a parking spot. When I turned the car off it was no-longer able to crank and or shift. This is not the first or second time this has happened.

Dear NHTSA; I own a 2009 Pontiac G6 that within the last week incurred a power steering failure. Recall research shows that on March 2014 the NHTSA required GM to issue a recall for this exact problem, however, it only covered the G6 models up to the year 2009 but not all 2009. The service advisor at the dealership acknowledged that the "problem" was very similar to the steering problem for earlier models that are subject to the recall. However, since not all of the 2009 model year was not included in the NHTSA recall, the cost to repair the problem falls to the consumer and is estimated to be in the $1,800 to $2,000 range. This is clearly a safety issue and mirrors the same characteristic's as earlier models included in the recall. I urge the NHTSA to re-visit the model years subject to the recall. The consumer should not be burdened with the cost of repairing what is obviously a design defect. Further and more importantly is safety for the passengers and other drivers on the road. I hope that the NHTSA will investigate this matter accordingly and amend the power steering recall to include all 2009 models. Thank you.

The power steering just suddenly goes out and I get a message on radio that says power steering. I stop the car and kill the engine and it works again. Sometimes longer than others. It's a 2009 just hit 161K miles so not sure if it is even cover ed NY anything

Lost power steering while driving and when first started, but would turn the car off and restart to get it working again. This went on for about a month, then it worked for a few months and now have no power steering at all. It quit altogether 2 weeks ago.

- Vesper, WI, USA

The power steering goes out intermittently while driving and I have to shut the car off in order to fix it. I had the power steering assist motor replaced but this did not solve the issue. While researching, I found a recall on this very issue although it does not come up when I put in my vehicle's VIN number. It is recall NHTSA # 14V153000. Please let me know how I can get this issue fixed under this recall. I am fearful of driving my car as there is no warning of when this major safety issue is going to happen.

While driving down a city street and turning right down another street my dic flashed error message power steering. While nothing has happened as of yet on 12/26/2016, I have looked into the recalls regarding all other model years of the Pontiac G6 with the electric power steering issue. It concerns me deeply. This is my wife's car and she drives it to work daily, takes our 17 year old to work, and drives our 4 and 10 year olds places too. I'm fearing for there lives knowing that at any moment the power steering could go out and cause a fatal accident. While knowing that almost all other G6's are covered under the recall except ours is very upsetting. I can not afford to take this to a GM dealer for them to fix this issue. I'm not necessarily looking for free parts and labor to fix this issue, but for the safety of me, my family, other G6 owners not on the recall, and other motorists on the road. Thank you.

I put in a complaint about my G6 just the other day and the power steering fluctuating on and off and my steering wheel moving uncontrollably while in idle. I stated how I have an 18 month old and hate driving with her in the car because I was afraid the power steering would go out while driving. Unfortunately, that happened over the weekend. I was driving home and the power steering light came on and there was no more power steering assist. Fortunately I wasn't on curve or had to turn anytime soon. Being a petite woman, I barely had enough strength to pull over on the side of the road and wait for my husband to show up and drive it the rest of the way home. This is a serious safety issue and I'm fortunate that I was on a road that could have caused an accident. Why is my car not on a recall list? I want this fixed.

Power steering warning began coming on a few months ago on the display. The steering wheel would not turn when this would happen. The car would have to be shut off and restarted to get the warning to go away and the wheel to turn. Sometimes it took more than one attempt. At one point it took half an hour of restarting the car to get the power steering to work. I noticed when the car was in idle, the steering wheel would shake. One day, the problem just went away. Well, the other day, this started again, only it's been much worse.. the car has to be shut off and restarted several times. In idle, the steering wheel shakes so hard that it shakes the whole car.when driving, the car now jerks to the right and the steering wheel is hard to keep straight because of the shaking! I have been so afraid the power steering will go out when I'm driving. I have an 18 month old daughter that I hate putting into the car because if it does go out and I lose control, I don't want her to lose her life. I researched my car and found out my power steering is all electric. What should I do from here? I fear for my life & my child's every time I get in my vehicle. It shouldn't be that way.

Yesterday, my power steering locked up while backing the car. I shut the car off and restarted and the power steering began working. I called Pontiac in regards to the steering recall and they stated that my VIN did not indicate a recall for this issue. The same issue other cars same year as mine have been recalled for. It would be at my expense to correct. I don't understand why it isn't every manufactured 2009 Pontiac G6 with eps.

- Oakhill, OH, USA

Just purchased a G6 and several recalls have been issued for 2009.

While driving the power steering turns off. This is a hazard because it is startling and causes the steering wheel to get very tight making it difficult to steer. This can occur without warning. It continues to be like this until the car is turned off and back on. But occurs again at different times without warning.

I had power steering lose about a year ago and then it just happened again yesterday. When I shut the car off it like resets and then it's fine I also had a friend of mine text me and told me that my brake lights were backwards when I when I was breaking the lights were off when I was driving and my brake lights were on. I have also always noticed that my car shifts weird sometimes when I'm passing it doesn't seem like I can get up to speed. I have also had trouble with my passenger front airbag sensor since I've had the car. I bought my car and 2010 it was only a year old with very few miles. Right now I only have about 81,000 miles on it. With all of my incidents with the power steering and brake lights I have been in town driving all were in motion. In town driving has probably been about 35 mile an hour I would never want to experience or have any of these on the highway.

2009 Pontiac G6. Consumer requests assistance in electric power steering recall notice repairs and vehicle manufacturer denial for additional coverage protection for power steering problems. The consumer stated when the steering failed, she pulled over, cut the engine off and restarted it again. The consumer was informed the vehicle would not be fixed, because it was over the required mileage.
