After months of having my car make a clunk noise when making turns, my steering wheel began to have a lot of play when turning to the left, and was harder to turn to the right. Also when i came to a stop the steering wheel moved back and forth on its own. Power steering electric motor was shot. $830 bucks later. Also have had lots of brake (rotors, bearings) replaced twice already....this car is a piece of junk

I have had many problems with this car...power windows, key fobs, tie rods, brakes and now the power steering. Nothing has been covered by my "warranty".
The car is cute but sucks. Dangerous to drive. This is LAST GM vehicle I WILL EVER BUY!
Hello Ford Fusion in September!
Good riddance to Pontiac.

As other posts have mentioned. Power Steering Alert came on. Couldn't find PS unit under hood. Took to dealer. They said I had a faulty sensor but the only way to fix it was to replace the entire column. Cost $750. Paid my $85 diagnostic fee and left. Will begin to budget for expense. Hope I don't kill someone or get killed before I can afford to get it fixed. Even though my car only has 53,000 miles, they said it was not covered under my warranty.

I been having problem with the power steering on my Pontiac for a couple of months now. It will stiffen the steering wheel whenever i go to make a turn. I have had several mechanic look at it. Have even went as far as putting a brand new rack on and also the motor in which the power steering is suppose to be control by. That lasted about a week and then begin to act up again. I contacted GM and was told that there is nothing can be done unless more people call and complain about the same issue. So if you are having problem with the power steering, please contact GM at 1800-620-7668 or NHTSA at 1888-327-42336 so that this problem can be looked in more. It is no used to continue to waste your time complaining on these forums. You need to complain to the main folks that can actually recall this problem.

I occasionally get a warning in my display when I start my Pontiac G6. I went to get it serviced and it appears that there is no place to add fluid. I first got the error in my display 36 miles after the warranty ran out. I called Pontiac and they basically said "tough". They would not even give me any information on how to fix the issue unless I came in and paid over $100 to let them troubleshoot it. Pardon my language, but Pontiac Customer Service SUCKS!!!!!!!

The Pontiac G6 is a very sexy, comfortable ride to have. BUT (and there is always a but)... the power steering reservoir on the 2006 model is not located in sight under the hood at all. NOT even in the manual. But for some reason, a genius put a POWER STEERING warning inside the car as if that bull$h!t works. I call my wifes' dealership and they can locate the power steering reservoir on the 2007 and 2008 models, but can't on the 2006...what type of $h!t is that?!? I'm glad to be able to say the G6 did a very good job on screwing us out of our hard earned money.
Also, let me add to all 2006 G6 users... Take that junk back and get a 2007 or 2008, and if it makes you feel any better find a new make altogether. Recalls take too long, warranties are full of it, and we are in a recession.

I contacted Pontiac and they won't pay for it. This has been all over the internet about tons of people with the same power steering problem, but no effing recall. How many people are going to have to die from this for Pontiac to wake up and admit they're at fault finally? I talked to GM directly, and they said that I had to bring my car to get diagnosed at a dealership (money out of my own pocket) then they would discuss and debate if they would pay for the repair. So I paid $110 to get it diagnosed, and the dealership said it was going to cost about $750, parts and labor. GM then talked to the dealership and like 2 phone calls later, the gm representative she said that they're not going to pay for it because when it was under warranty I never complained about steering issues
Not only did I not get it fixed, I had to give them $110 to tell me what I already knew and GM is making me eat it! Everybody I see that says "nice car" and asks if they should get one I tell not to wast their money since Pontiac doesn't care about their customers and this car has problem after problem. Basically, I told the GM representative after talking to her that you just lost a customer and hung up on her; screw Pontiac because that's all they did to me.

Ok people, I have been looking online at all the complaints on the G6 steering, and NOW, It finally got somebody, ME!!! As you can see from the pictures the car is in a mess and all because the power steering went out, The car went out of control and spun around in the road and hit a culvert! I called GM/Pontiac and reported this. today a GM inspector came to the body shop and took all the data to send to the Engineers at GM for a determination. I'll probably lose that battle BUT!!!! I will win the war. I am going to sue them because they have known about this problem since 2005, when the electronic steering came out, and have done nothing about it to this day. To me that shows negligence. I have retained a lawyer and am actively seeking suit. Maybe this will get GM's attention for this ongoing problem EVERYONE is having! more to come.

So as comforting as it is to know that I'm not the only one with this problem, I would prefer that this wasn't the case. My power steering warning sensor light came on as I was pulling out of my apartment parking lot. I could feel the steering wheel tighten up and had to struggle to pull it back into my parking spot. I decided to take the bus instead that day and try to figure out what was wrong later. After going on the internet I noticed that many G6 users had stated similar complaints. I went back to my car the next day and the problem seemed to had vanished. I was silently cheering that maybe it was just a glitch and I was problem free. Not so, while leaving the grocery store I went over a speed bump and the problem was triggered all over again. At first my steering felt very loose and strange for about 100 meters, then it became very tight and difficult to steer, the power steering had went out again and I drove it home this way, struggling at every turn. It requires a lot of torque to turn the wheel an I'm guessing this is just as hard on the steering column as it is on me.
Hearing how much this problem costs to fix I haven't taken my car in because it is an extra expense I don't feel like dealing with, especially since it was not my fault in the first place. I live right on a bus route and have been taking public transit and avoiding my car because I am afraid to get in it and loose my steering again. (I prefer the bus anyway because I feel like I am helping the environment, but it's difficult to take it everywhere I go and definitely more time consuming and less convenient for things like laundry, groceries, and household shopping).
Anyway, I guess I will take my car in this week or next week to try and have it fixed. The problem is, how do I know that this will permanently eliminate the steering issue and I won't be back at the shop in a couple weeks/months? Also, I am afraid to get behind the wheel. loose my steering, and potentially cause an accident. It makes me extremely nervous. Come on GM get it together. No wonder your company is falling apart. I miss my Nissan :(

I've been having the clunky noises when turning the wheel and also the loose steering when turning and also now a vibration in the steering wheel when turning and pulling out. Also just had a new transmission (rebuilt) put in last week. Took it to the dealer twice for steering issues. Supposedly fixed it. Now power steering message came on last evening and lost steering as I was backing out of a parking lot. Turned it off and back on and it reset itself (at least I made it home safely). After reading everyone's same issues, it is starting to scare me to even drive it - afraid it will turn off while driving on the highway. It is going back to the shop today and it better get fixed. I've always had a Pontiac and swore by them. Now I'm hesitant to EVER buy another one.

Someone please help us with this power steering problem. It's not right I am talking about the Pontiac and GM Companies. It's not the consumers problem that this is happening, What is going to be bad is when someone is driving their Pontiac G6 and the steering locks up on them and it ends up killing the driver or someone else. Then there will be a big law suit. And it will really be bad that it would have to come to that before they take action to fix the problem.

Well let's see where do I start? I took my car into the dealership recently, the same dealership where we purchased it at (1 1 1/2 years ago) because it was making a weird popping noise when I turned the wheels either way, not just left or right but both ways, so we thought okay maybe a strut problem? The dealership with their "GM Certified Mechanics" said they found nothing wrong and couldn't hear the noise I had spoke of (maybe they had left there hearing aid at home?)So I took my car and made it oh about 10 miles down the road and guess what I heard when I exited off the interstate...You guessed it...That popping sound the car hade made previously...Well here I am a couple of months later and guess what I start my car up, go to back out of my driveway (which by the way is straight) and low and behold guess what...I can't do anything with my steering wheel, okay I turn the car off and then on again, and it's fine (thankfully)...I start down the road and boom boom, power steering goes out, so I pull to the edge of the road and shut the car off, and then turn it back on, it's fine, so I call up that same lovely GM dealership who sold me this car and say I am having the same popping noise and now my power steering is failing on a regular basis, can you help me with a solution to this problem, this is what I hear from the lovely GM dealership...I'm sorry you are having this problem, however it is not covered under your power train warranty and it can cost from $700-$2000 to fix it. However I should inform you this has become quiet the problem with this particular car...What great news! (not). So my husband contacted Pontiac directly to find out just how serious of an issue this was and he was informed that yes, in fact Pontiac & GM are quiet aware of this problem, and there have been several accidents, with injuries noted, because of this exact problem. So now we are working with Pontiac to see if I can get my car fixed and how much it will cost, personally I think that GM should issue a safety alert and recall this immediately before something unspeakable happens to someone, but I guess they are to busy up in Washington trying to get some more money to bail them out, who knows. This has been my 3rd Pontiac and my last Pontiac. I will buy a foreign made car or buy a truck before I purchase another Pontiac. They are supposed to be safe, reliable, and well built, well they never offered me any Vaseline when they told me that either! I am just disgusted at the way American made automobiles have gotten, they are cheap, very unpredictable, and once you sign the dotted line to purchase all the niceness and friendliness and the courteousness goes away and out pop the biggest fangs you ever seen in your entire life! Once again, they wander why so many American companies are going under, well my opinion is this when you buy something you expect the company to stand behind it, like they say they will, and as soon as you have a problem they are like show me the money, or here let's trad for another GM product (that's most likely no better) and let's see if I can get you into another car for $100 or so more a month. Yeah they take you from $400 a month, plus the repair bills to oh, I don't know $500 or so a month and the repair bills? I am absolutely outraged! I

Well times are tuff out here in the real world and when you and i are spending more than $400 a month on a car note you expect that the car would last as long as your term right? well i was wrong i searched for my powersteering under the hood when i almost killed myself and my brother on the highway when i was changing lanes and i couldn't steer my car in the lane which i was turning into. no instead i had to slam on the horn to warn the car next to me and luckily the semi-truck behind him noticed that i was in a world of hurt and slammed on his breaks. now i was upset then but im really pissed off now. what in the hell are the big wig assholes problem that they knew about this before this happened and now that i was seriously an instant away from killing myself, my brother, the family next to me and possibly the guy in the truck behind me. well Pontiac, GM you guys now have a problem that you cant ignore anymore

I got my G6 in March of 07. It only had like 31,000 miles. I fell in love with the car immediately. Fast forward a little over a year and all of a sudden my power steering goes out. But it only went out every once in awhile. Well, I had no idea it didn't take fluid, so I go to Autozone and me and the 2 of the employees spent 30 minutes looking under the hood for a place to put fluid in. They give up and told me to take it to a Pontiac dealer. Well, I did and they said, "Oh it dont take fluid, it's electrical." what?? Anyway, I asked how much it might run me and they told me that a number of things couldve caused it so they don't know. Well a couple months later, it started going out ALL the time, but only when I made right turns. To make a long story short, we gave the car back because I was paying almost $400.00 a month for a car that was so difficult to fix. The air compressor also somehow got busted and it's never been wrecked and that would've cost me about $800.00 to fix. I have an Oldsmobile Intrigue now.

WE HAVE A PROBLEM!!! The Pontiac G6 Steering if faulty and could result in a death if not fixed in a timely manner. GM Engineers have to be aware of this!! I thought I was the only individual with this problem. I thought maybe I needed to add power steering fluid to my vehicle, but when I could not find the reservoir in the car or location of it in the operators manual. That is when I decided to look online and find that I am NOT the only one!!! This is disturbing to me that GM is letting this happen to the public's safety. I feel that it would be a cheaper fix to find the problem now and repair it than to wait until a grieving family sues and brings CNN into this (Remember what happened to Ford,,,,GM?). I have a note just like many of you out there, but freaks me out when I know that I have to be prepared to crash every time I drive in traffic (Guess who is at fault there GM!!) try explaining that to the investigating officer. I get the ticket and points on my record then left stranded on the road without a vehicle from GM's neglect. GM YOU NEED TO FIX THIS NOW before its a larger issue than your CEO's retirement!!

Same complaint as the others on this board regarding a power steering failure in the G6. The wheel locks up so tightly, it takes some major muscle just to steer the car out of harms way. You then have to shut the engine off and restart the car in order for the power steering to reset itself. I've had to do this maneuver in some serious traffic on more than one occasion. Finally took it in to the dealer and they said it was a faulty torque sensor. Apparently the sensor itself can't be replaced and a new steering column had to be installed - for a tidy $900. After all that, the steering still is horrible on this car. Unfortunately, until someone gets seriously injured, it's apparent GM will never acknowledge this is a huge problem with this car. Sorry Detroit, I've bought my last car from you guys - you just don't get it!

I took my Pontiac G6 in today for an oil change and to have my breaks looked at because over the last couple of weeks the rear breaks had been making a grinding noise as I slowed or turned. Well it turns out I needed the rotors and breaks replaced for roughly $415. During the inspection I stayed out where the cars are being worked on to make sure things were legit. I noticed a coupk of mechanics looking at the front tires and eventually asked me if I had problems steering.
I said yes. I mostly notice it when I am going down hill. As I am breaking the car begins to shake and if I slightly move my hands from the wheel the car quickly turns left. The mechanic said he noticed right away when he got into my car that when he tried to turn right the car had so much power and turned left. I continued to watch them examine my car; they tried turning the wheels manually then the steering wheel. We all were able to see that the car does not lock when it is being turned to the right, it just spins back to the left with so much force. They told me that since they do not specialize in Pontiacs that I should take it in to Pontiac to have it looked at. I became worried when they said there may be a recall on it and that they would do some research to see. I purchased this car 06/2006 and it barely has 37,000 mile on it. I have three kids that I transport in this car daily and now i do not want to drive it home.
At about the 30,000 mile mark I had to have the car towed into the dealership. i made a 5 minute stop at Starbucks and when I went back to the car it wouldn't start. No my lights were not left on at all. I had already been to my morning appointments without any problems. It turned out to be the battery which was covered under warranty. Even now the car will start and the n quickly shut off. Sometime i attempt to start the car three times before i can get going. I know it has something to do with the starter.

While driving my car to work my steering went out all together, I am lucky I was on a side street where I did not hit anything, I took it to a mechanic today and was told even though there is multiple complaints regarding the power steering being faulty in the 2006 G6 models it was not recall worthy or covered under any warranty, They went on to say it was approx $1200 to repair and it needed done in order to be able to drive car, I called General Motors and filed a complaint not seeing that it will do me any good but worth a try, This is my first GM car and will be my last, You can visit multiple sites and find where many G6 owners are having the same problem with the power steering, obviously GM Pontiac needs to look into this again and recall this and fix it before someone gets seriously hurt, I should not have $1200 worth of mechanical work on a car barely 2 yrs old with 51000 miles!
Update from Jun 6, 2009: I filed a complaint about my power steering on my G6. I have learned so much about this electrical power steering and I even had family members who WORKED at General Motors tell me I didn't know what I was talking about when referring to the power steering using a 80amp fuse! I guess because I am a woman and shouldn't know so much. I said earlier in another complaint that I filed a complaint with GM Pontiac about this issue. I heard back today that the work would be covered and I am only responsible for a fraction (approx $200) instead of the original quote of $1200-1300! So I am pleased and taking it Monday to get fixed. I do hope this fixes the problem and I don't have to deal with this power steering again. I did inform them that on multiple websites feature ppl with the same problem. I do believe this needs to be recalled and hopefully they handle this. So if you are having the same problem it could be beneficial to call GM and complain. I was covered under NO warranty so I am pleased.

I bought the car at the end of June 2008 and have already had multiple problems with (related to what I believe is the dealer doing a crap job on checking the car before they handed it over). I've had to bring the vehicle to the dealership 3 times over the past 2 months. The power steering has been acting up over the past few weeks but went out completely this past Sunday night while driving home. Lucky for me, someone was in the car with me and I was able to pull over quickly. The car beeped (like it does when you don't have your seatbelt on or the gas is low) and then "Power Steering" flashed on the radio screen. I did not know that this car had electronic power steering at the time. Ended up having to drive it home (15+ miles away) and then took it into the dealership where I bought the car (2 months ago).
They told me it is a torque sensor in the steering column that is bent and needs to be replaced....Lucky me they have the part in stock but want to charge me $656 for the part, labor and just to look at my car. This is supposed to be a CERTIFIED vehicle. They will not budge with me. I have had numerous problems with this car and dealership and am about at my wits end. I have paid almost $1000 on this car since I bought it 2 months ago, not counting the down payment and car payments.
So if you are having a problem with your power steering ask them to check the Torque (sp?) sensor in the steering column.

I love my G6! I love the way it handles and looks. I hate the power steering issue. Apparently tons of people are having the exact same problem. The only difference I seem to notice is everyone else's problem happens when they turn to the left. Mine occurs when I have to make a 90 degree right turn. My car makes that dinging noise and the dash reads "power steering". The power steering goes completely out at that moment and I am forced to use what little upper body muscles I have. I have almost hit someones mailbox and taken out a few trees. If something doesn't get done about this issue fast, there will be many wrecks and ,God forbid, fatalities. This shouldn't be a money issue for the NHTSA, it should be a safety issue.

I'm not sure what caused the power steering to be faulty,but on the message indicator the words "power steering" did appear. Not sure what to do, I turned the vehicle off for about 5 minutes & when I turned it back on, it was fine. I went by the GM dealership & was advised that the power steering was electrical which in my eyes is a way to get more money out of the consumer because when I purchased the vehicle there was nothing listed as the power steering being electrical. Maybe there should be a recall so the dealership will have to be responsible. But of course if the problem is not covered under warranty, the dealership will be happy to help you because they can jack the price up. Sometimes I hate I have a Pontiac. After this vehicle I will never get another one!

I am paying a $400 car payment on a car that has been at the dealership at least once a month for the past 4 months. First it was the rack and pinion (whatever that is), then it was the steering column had to be replaced, then it was the tie rod and struts, and NOW it is the same noise in the frnt end from when they did the tie rod and struts that is back again. It is really sad that when you take your car into a dealership and a SERVICE ADVISER tells you they have no clue what is going on and they are just putting parts on your car til they can figure it out. Well let me just say that if I have a accident and something happens to me or my child don't think I wont go after the dealership that sold me the car as well as GM for not getting recalls out. What the crap is a "silent bulletin" there should be NO SUCH thing. When something needs fied on a car they need to notify ALL owners and not wait for us to come in to the dealership with the problem. Never again will I buy a GM car or truck!!!!!!!!!

The car has 53000 miles and this is the 4th rack installed. It is past the warranty and the new rack is warrantied for 11000 miles. It can't even make it past that!.
GM your true to your history. First the Corvair, which leaked oil on the showroom floors, then the Vega with that creative aluminum engine that swapped pistons within 40,000 miles. Then came the imaginative GM Diesel. Engineers decided that it would be sufficient to use a standard gasoline block and convert it. Yet another bad engineering choice. Oh, and then there was the conversion to latex primer which was witness to 12 years of rusting rattling pickups collapsing as they clunked down the road. Eventually they came around to correcting the 12 year old problem, with galvanizing, but they were unable to make paint stick to it. Then came the decade (I thought) long problem with the steering racks devouring themselves on the J 2000, J6000, and Citations. I had had enough. I bought nothing but foreign cars. A few years ago I returned to the American car market when I bought a 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix. It went into the shop 3 times to have the plastic intake manifold replaced because water was in the oil. Then with the at the ripe old age of 5, with a whopping 73000 miles on it, I wisely traded ot off before the moaning transmission gave out. The problem? I invested in GM's future by buying the first G6 available to my state. A totally loaded $28000 car, was what seemed to be a perfect balance of Styling, handling, power when you needed it, and smart interior appointments. After only 15000 miles the honeymoon was about to end. The first problems with the steering rack made their day beau. Now with 53000 miles on the car she went in for her 4th rack today. Wait a minute! Didn't I have this problem with my 81 citation? Typical GM. Get it on the road and let the customers sort out the problems. After 26 years, they still have not got around to fixing that pesky old rack problem. Maybe they need 26 more years to come up with an answer.
I have the answer GM. Fire all of your bean counters. They are losing all of your beans and I am one of them. Then fire your engineers. They should be designing egg beaters or sewing machines. They are trying to save you money by making everything last only until warranty is up. Most people buy new cars because they are tired of the old one. You won't lose sales if you make a dependable car. Toyota hasn't. Now, hire people who feel that quality is more important than profit. And people who have some kinf of interest in cars. I think after the general public figures this out, that you are building a BETTER PRODUCT they will eventually come back as I tried to do when you failed me. (Again) Patriotism only goes so far until I figured out that me being patriotic is not making GM act any more patriotic. It's still all about money to them. No loyalty to us. The engineers were expected to design equipment to last only through the warranty period but not too far beyond. The trouble is that the foreign companies did not sign on to this plan. They built long lasting low maintenance cars, and it in turn made the US companies look inferior. People started buying for quality. Yes, there was a market for long lasting vehicles! What they did not make in parts, they more than made up for in new vehicle sales. GM has still never caught on to this concept. Well it is all about money to me also. I quit! Maybe I'll try an Audi again. I owned one in the 80s when I was less patriotic, and it ran like a Swiss watch or maybe a 57 Chevy
One last thing. In the late 70s when GM was busy trying to get out from under yet another problem, the catastrophic diesel engine failure liability, congress passed a bill to protect the consumer from these calculated failures by industry. The bill that they passed, most likely in honor of GM was called the Magnuson-Moss Act. This act was as I understand it, passed with the blessings of the lobby from the auto industries of the USA asking that this not be made public. The act in a nutshell states that if any item fails earlier than a what would reasonable life time, Compared to other products in that class, and regardless of the number of owners prior to the failure, the manufacture would be expected, regardless of warranty agreements, for reinstating the product to operational status. The only catch is that they do not have to tell you that this is available. The consumer must seek out this service. Most dealers do not know about it so you must contact factory reps to explain it to them. If they blow you off, tell them you are going to contact the Federal Exchange commission. They will likely change their tune because I understand the fines are pretty stiff.

I got in my car and noticed that when I turned the steering wheel to the left, it was really tight. When I turned it to the right, it was so loose I had to be careful not to lose control of the vehicle. Also, after getting in the car once, the display read Power Steering and the the wheel would not turn at all. I turned the car off and back on again and it reset itself, I guess. I will have to wait to trade it in, but I won't buy another American made car. This is my second Pontiac because I love them, but I have to let them go.

I thought I had was going crazy. For the past couple of months I have sensed my steering was a little iffy at times but I thought it was just me. I got my car in July 07 and I have felt vibrations and heard the clunking noise when I turned. I even have had the steering react stiffly when turning left and remarkably loose when turning right especially if I was braking will driving down hill.I thought I was imagining things but after reading many other G6 owner's complaints where I have experienced most of these symptoms I see that it is not just me and something on GM's behalf should be done like a recall. I plan to make a formal complaint to GM and hopefully they will remedy the situation before this negligent against safety causes one or more families unnecessary grief from a problem that is known about but the car company was too ignorant to anything about.
