I was driving on my way to the doctors office with my 68 yr old grandmother on my passenger side. We were sitting at the light waiting on the left turn signal to turn green when suddenly my engine light comes on & my car states power steering loss. Then I really lost power steering in mid turn. Thankful enough the left turn signal was green long enough for us to have made it through the turn because had it not we would have been hit multiple way. I have been reading that this is an ongoing problem for the Pontiac G6 2005 model & I truly don't understand why they have not been recalled. What will it take for this issue to be resolved?

The power steering on my 2005 Pontiac G6 goes out without notice while I'm driving. From my research this problem is consistent among several GM models with electronic power steering. The power steering indicators pops up on the dash, the engine light comes on and the power steering completely goes out.

I just bought a 2005 Pontiac G6 and I have problems along with many many others. First of all the rotors are very warped and when I drive on freeway and hit the brakes the whole car shakes and feels very unsafe!! and the second problem is the steering column pops when making turns, left and right..I think a recall is in order. Please please help me and many others thanks

Ongoing problem with the power steering. From what I understand, this is a wide-spread problem with the 2005 Pontiac G6.

I was driving to school when my power steering went out. I pulled over and called a mechanic. I took it to a local mechanic, but they could not fix it because I have electric steering. He said that if I did not get it fixed right away the steering could lock up on me and cause an accident. I took it to the dealer, and they replaced the steering column.

I have taken my car into the dealership due to the steering wheel being tough to turn at times. I received a letter in the mail from the dealership saying there may be a problem with the steering. However, when I took it into the dealership, they told me that there was nothing they could do to fix the car unless they could physically see that the steering was acting up. Just yesterday, I couldn't turn my car without using two hands to tug on the steering wheel. It wouldn't turn without fighting with the car. This is not the first time this has happened, and I am at the point where I want to sell the car because there are too many problems with it. I have had this problem with steering so many times. What will it take for the dealership to fix the car? do I have to get into an accident before they will fix it or recall it, because I am not paying for something that I complained about when I had the warranty. I am now over the miles for a warranty. Another issue that I have reported to the dealership while under warranty was the car won't start. Sometimes I turn the key and it won't start. It takes several times before the car will actually start. This happens frequently. It's several times a week. It is unreal that I can't get into my car and start it without having a problem. I have reported this issue to the dealership and again was told that nothing is wrong with the car. I have reported several other issues, but the dealership refuses to help with anything. There are so many issues with the Pontiac G6. I wouldn't recommend this car to anyone unless all of the issues are corrected.

I was driving my car to go get lunch and pulled up to a stop sign and bell went off and I could not steer my 2005 Pontiac G6. I pulled into a Saturn dealership which was the first right turn off the busy road I found myself on. It took two people to turn the wheel and I had to park sideway's in three spots. I went into the dealership to seek assistance and had one of the porters drive the car back to the service area when he reported the issue had resolved itself. After talking with a technician, he recommended that I wait to have it serviced to see if it was a momentary blip in the computer or if the problem presents itself again. I agreed but decided to do an internet search on my car, make and model only to find numerous complaint's of the same issue with power steering failure in the '05 and '06 model. What makes me even more upset and disgusted is that posting after posting all over the net state that GM knows the steering is failing and posted a bulletin in 2007 stating there was a problem but never bothered to send out any communications when I would have been well within the warranty. Now I have 102,000 miles on my car and am looking at an $800 - $1000 repair unless I junk this piece of crap. In addition - my car has had a lengthily service record that is quite disappointing. I have had a new fuel system including fuel pump, fuel lines, solenoid (sp?), four steering racks, two sets of control arm's, a steering column, steering coil, steering gear, stereo/cd player, tail lights, ignition and window clips to make them stop screaming. This has been the biggest disappointment since the VW beetle of '03. And we wonder why no one wants to buy american anymore...GM here's your sign.

2005 Pontiac G6 with 68,000 miles. The steering column was replaced at 56,000 miles due to hard, and erratic steering. The steering has in the last day become hard to turn, and takes excessive force to change direction. I have parked the car until the local dealership can get it in for diagnosis. I see that there are a large number of similar complaints. I strongly feel that this is an inherent, and dangerous situation, which could be life threatening.

I have a 2005 Pontiac G6 GT. Last week when I was turn on the off ramp I completely lost power steering. The light came on stating power steering, and my service engine light came on. I was able to steer the car to a gas station though it was extremely hard. I bought some power steering fluid, but to my surprise my car has electric power steering so there wouldn't be a fluid I could fill. When I turned my car back on the lights were no longer on and my steering was fine. Today - about six days later - I was pulling off the off ramp and the same problem happened. This time I could barely steer at all. I pulled over, shut my car off and turned it back on and it was fine. I have been looking online and I see that I am one of hundreds of people with this problem on this car. I am going to have to get this fixed because this could be a life or death problem, after reviewing all the other customer complaints I feel GM should recall all of the 2005 and 2006 models that may have this problem. Thank you

Power steering failure!!!!! tell you what....why don't I come over and pick up your children, family and friends and take them for a ride and hope that the power steering doesn't fail and we crash and die. Get my point"?? or maybe I will just have 16. Accidents and rack up my insurance. Why is this issue not a recall"

Started the vehicle and placed the car in reverse. This is when I received a message on the dash saying power steering and was unable to turn the steering wheel without struggling (loss of power steering). After the car was shut off and restarted everything worked fine. What if this were to happen while driving in harsh weather conditions. Death? nothing has been done to correct this problem because the repair is to expensive and I feel that it should be a recall matter for GM.

While taking a right turn driving to work the power steering in my G6 went out causing the steering wheel to lock up sending me into oncoming traffic. I luckily was out at a low traffic time and was able to avoid being hit by another vehicle. The steering after that point was possible but extremely hard to manage and sharp or quick turns would be impossible. I reached my destination which was close and turned the vehicle off. When I restarted the engine the "power steering" alert that had flashed on my radio was off and the power steering seemed normal again. After researching I've learned that this has been on ongoing problem and I can expect that it will happen to my car again without warning putting me in danger while driving.

2005 Pontiac G6. I was turning in the middle of a busy intersection when my electrical power steering went out in the middle of the intersection unable to control my car almost getting hit head on and by several other cars as I was jus sitting in the middle of the intersection. This car need to be recalled as I read so many stories about people having the same problem and some which caused accidents. In my case it didn't cause an accident thank god that other drivers were paying attention and somehow avoided my car. How this hasn't been recalled yet blows my mind!!!!! needs to be recalled asap. On top of that the dealership said my steering can go out at anytime. Im driving a car that can loose steering at any time without any warning which endangers anybody around me.

I was diving my 2005 Pontiac G6 when I was turning into a busy intersection my power steering locked up and the light on the dash lit up, almost causing a head on collision by cars doing 50 mph. I was just sitting in the intersection because I could not control my car after that happened almost getting hit by another 2 cars. I turned my car off and back on and the power steering worked again. Took it to the dealership they replaced the power steering motor because it was under warranty. The steering wheel column needed to be replaced but wasn't under warrant so they did not replace it. They said it works for now but it could go out anytime im driving, which can cause an accident. I couldn't believe what happened thought it was a fluke just my luck, only to see so many people having the say problem in the same year, in the same car with the same mileage. The power steering went out with no warning. These cars need to be recalled asap somebody will get hurt or even killed by this. I was only doing around 20mph and almost got hit three times head on and from the back imagine if I was on the expressway or even turning down a side street and loosing the steering and running up a curb endangering innocent bystanders. Since these are newer cars there are so many of these cars out there that haven't experienced this yet but will. Not only people driving these cars are in danger at anytime but other people are to. I almost got hit head on by a Ford truck his life wasin danger just as much as mine. How these cars are not recalled yet blows my mind"????" so many people lives are in danger im driving a car that they said that there is a possibility that it could happen again. Are they just going to wait until people get killed by this if not already or come up with a solution before more people lives are at risk. These cars need to be looked at and recalled asap. I heard something about an extended warranty but they don't make extended lives. Recall asap recall asap.

I was dropping my 2 kids off at school this morning when I heard the warning signal come on and I looked and seen "power steering" in the information window on the stereo and a little car on the dash. I noticed that I was not able to turn the steering wheel. I was able to drive the car to be looked at and when they looked at it they did not see anything wrong with the car. So I had them change the oil and check all of the fluids and as they took it for a test drive it did the samething to him. They took it back to the shop and put it on a machine and could not find anything wrong with car but they know that something was wrong. The person at the front desk did some research and found that there are a lot of people who have the same issue. I would like to know when they are going to put a recall out on this problem or are we going to have to wait until someone gets killed before anyone takes action. I am just thankful that my children were not in the car and I did not hit someone and get hurt or hurt someone else. Please do some research and see all the complaints on this issue.

I purchased a 2005 G6 about 1 yr ago. I am experiencing trouble with the power steering. It gets very stiff and hard to turn the wheel, then the power steering warning appeared on the console info screen. I thought it needed fluid so when I went looking for the place to put it and there wasn't one. What can I do to get this fixed?
