Twice in the last 2 months my power steering has gone out in my 09 Pontiac G6. Both times the power steering has gone out has happened while the vehicle was in use and making a turn. I notice that there was a recall for this issued in 2014, but my VIN number is not included in that recall. I had to replace the pump in February of 2017, and am now on April 27 2017 having to take it back in due to power steering issues. I am unclear as to why the 09 Pontiac G6 power steering recall did not extend to my VIN number, but clearly there is an issue with my vehicle's power steering that is above and beyond normal wear for an 8 year old vehicle.

- Griffith, IN, USA

Vehicle was in motion on a 45 mph street when power steering became inoperable with an alarm. Sudden loss of control experienced, but no accident. Turned off car and restarted and power steering became operable again. Got vehicle home and next day tried starting and alarm came back on with no power steering. Afraid to drive it and hope there is a recall in the works. Not safe!

- Columbus, MI, USA

'stearing angle sensor recall' there is a recall on 2 door models and not the four door models. These vehicals have the exact same part on them that goes bad. Is there no safety issue because its a four door. If the steering component is bad it dose not matter how many doors the car has. I was driving down the road today and my electric power steering stopped working. This is a very dangerous situation.

Vehicle steering stutters, clanks, clunks and has been in dealership for the problem. They replaced the power steering assist motor/module assembly and said it was covered by GM, and was told it was a common problem. After driving car it still did the same thing, now they want to charge us to diagnose the problem we took it in for to begin with. The (iss) intermediate steering shaft has also been replaced with factory GM part, which was also bad when 1st took in but they didn't point out. This has so far been a great car and now has over 144,000 miles and I realize there are gonna be problems with this much mileage, but the steering issue is really getting scary and still not fixed and I can't afford to keep replacing parts that aren't fixing it. GM should've recalled this problem on my car as they did others and fixed it with no cost...

Electric power steering goes out intermittently. Does not work about once out of every 4 time car is started. Must shut off car and restart to have steering work. Sometimes goes out randomly while driving, especially when stopped at a red light. Steering wheel shakes when car is stopped or idle.

- Muir, MI, USA

I took my car in to dealership because power steering alert had been appearing sparatically on info console. I never lost power steering. At my dealership they said that ithere was a recall for this issue, and that they would fix it. Four and a half hours later, they have taken my steering column apart and say they cannot put it together again until they have a new part for it. That was five days ago now and they tell me that they've replaced my torque sensor five times, but havn't been able to program it. So now they're telling me my steering column is broken and that I need to spend $625 for a new one. My steering column was not broken when I drove it into the dealership for an oil change and what I figured would be routine maintenance. If the torque sensor (recalled) requires a new steering column in order to be programmed, then that shouldn't that replacement be covered by the recall fulfillment?

- Richmond, VA, USA

Vehicle was idling at stop light when I heard a ding and then a "power steering" message appeared in the radio screen. I lost power steering for about 1 mile I drove. Normal power steering resumed when I drove car several hours later. Dash thermometer at time read 16 degrees farenheit

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.

- Wethersfield, CT, USA

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.

- Ramsey, MN, USA

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.

- Cumberland, MD, USA

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.
