While driving the power steering went on my car. It became very difficult to steer my vehicle at low speeds as well as change lanes. Now the casey Chevrolet is saying that there are no recalls on the electric power assist system (eps). However when doing my research to price how much it cost I see multiple recalls in regards to the eps.

I received a notice of a recall from GM on my vehicle at the end of June/beginning of July for a power steering issue. The notice said I would be further contacted when parts became available. On 7/19/14, I began noticing intermittent problems with my steering: The wheel would click and turn slightly left to right, sometimes while operating the vehicle and sometimes when the car was stopped (at a light). On 7/22/14, the wheel turned slightly and clicked while I was driving and my power steering indicator warning began flashing. I took the vehicle to an authorized dealer who handles Saturn and they had the car for two days. The indicator light only came on and off intermittently at the time and they did not address the steering issue related to the recall because they said GM had not sent parts yet. They were extremely dismissive of my concerns. Since that time, the power steering warning has progressed to staying on all of the time while the car is operating. Upon starting, the wheel clicks and turns slightly, a chime sounds, and the power steering indicator warning comes on and stays on. I have had my mechanic check the steering as well and he agrees that the issue is related to the recall. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle as I feel a failure in the power steering may be imminent. If it fails for instance while I am changing lanes on the highway and I am not able to easily steer the car into the proper lane, I could be involved in a crash, which could result in one or more fatalities. The GM dealership refused to contact GM to try to get parts quickly. After a heated argument, the dealership said they emailed GM and they have had no reply.

The steering wheel locks up randomly. I am able to steer however it is very hard, I basically loose my power steering. I have been lucky because each of the 4 times it has occurred I was traveling at a low speed and I was able to control the car. Each time, I turn the car off and restart it and everything is fine. I have called my dealership several times and they still do not have the parts in.

I began having issues with power steering fluid leaking on my 2008 Saturn Aura over a year ago (approximately January-March 2013). I had some temporary fixes done to help alleviate the problem, but on approximately April 1, 2014, my power steering system totally failed. I have been driving without power steering since this time. I had read that many 2008 Saturn Aura's were being recalled for this problem and hoped that my Aura would be included in this recall. When I realized that my car was not part of the recall, I had an estimate done to find out how much it would cost to have the power steering fixed. The estimate I received was over $1,200. Because I do not have this kind of money readily available, I have not been able to have this problem taken care of. I am highly disappointed that GM is not covering more of the vehicles that may be affected by this problem. There was obviously an issue with parts for some 2008 Saturn Aura's (among others) - but apparently there are more vehicles affected than you are covering - or perhaps that you are aware of. I am hoping that maybe you will consider looking into this issue on other vehicles that were manufactured near the same time as those being recalled before there are more injuries and/or fatalities.

On Saturday, June 14 my car would not start. I moved the floor gear shift deeper into the park position and it started. On Monday, June 16 I parked my car after purchasing an item at drive-through window. When I attempted to start it, it would not start. The gear shift moved through all of the indicators (PRD...) and the car began to roll backwards nearly hitting another car. I called for a tow, and the driver noted the problem. Today, pep boys completed repair of the the gear shift assembly. There was a missing part. The incident notice (www.motortrend.com/cars/2008/Saturn/Aura/recalls/) recall id # 103875 - power train:automatic transmission:lever and linkage:floor shiftplushide details recall date: Apr 30, 2014 model affected: 2008 Saturn Aura summary: General Motors llc (GM) notified the Agency on April 29, 2014, that they are recalling 56,214 model year 2007 and 2008 Saturn Aura vehicles. Consequences: If the transmission shift cable fractures while the vehicle is being driven, the transmission gear selection may not match the indicated gear and the vehicle may move in an unintended or unexpected direction, increasing the risk of a crash. Furthermore, when the driver goes to stop and park the vehicle, despite selecting the 'park' position, the transmission may not be in 'park.' If the vehicle is not in the "park" position there is a risk the vehicle will roll away as the driver and other occupants exit the vehicle or anytime thereafter. A vehicle rollaway increases the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders. Remedy: GM will notify owners, and GM dealers will replace the shift cable assembly and mounting bracket, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact General Motors at 1-800-553-6000. GM's number for this recall is 14152.

I was driving across the parking lot going to get something to eat. My son was in the rear left passenger seat. As I began turning the wheel, the car locked up, hesitated, then quickly sped up. Because there was no ability to gain control of the car, the vehicle stuck the curbside and then a tree. My son and I were not injured, only shook up. The incident was reported immediately and the adjuster informed me of the recall on the Saturn Auras.

Lost power steering while on a canyon road causing me to cross into the on coming lane of traffic. There is a recall in Canada for this exact same problem why isn't our government forcing the same thing here?

- Bountiful, UT, USA

Power steering light would come on and off and then while driving ps went out. Had to stop and restart engine and then power steering worked. Did this for several weeks and then dealership said diagnostic codes were C0550 and C0460. Found internal malfunction at pscm. Replaced and never a problem until the same thing happened 2/7/2014 with 165,000 miles. Has to be a defective pscm. Needs to be recalled. Safety issue. GM not good at recalling.

While warming up the car the power steering warning appeared on the driver display. Loss of power steering was confirmed when I attempted to turn the steering wheel. The dealer indicated that the power steering assist requires replacement. I did do some research on this problem and found that Transport Canada has forced a recall by GM to replace faulty power steering modules in that country. With more research I did determine that the part numbers involved are the same in Canada as the ones in the us. Why has there not been a recall for this problem here in the us when GM has recognized the problem in Canada?

While driving at low speeds, I discovered a slight noise coming from the steering column each time I turned the steering wheel. In addition to the noise, I felt a "popping" that appeared to be coming from the base of the steering column. Regardless of which way I turned the wheel, the sounds were the same, and continued to get louder the more I drove. I made an appointment with my local Chevrolet dealer, to investigate the issue. After the inspection, it was discovered that the steering column was faulty, and should be replaced. Repair cost of $950. With only 57,000 miles on the vehicle, it was way too soon to have experienced this type of issue. After some research, I discovered that there had been several steering problem complaints documented regarding the 2008 Saturn Aura.
