Consumer Description

THIS CAR IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE THAT GM HAS ISSUED A RECALL FOR. THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING MOTOR IS FAILING AND THE PWR STRNG WARNING LIGHT COMES ON. THE STEERING IS VERY DIFFICULT (TWO HANDS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY) FOR A STRONG DRIVER DURING SLOW SHARP TURNS. A POTENTIAL COLLISION IS HIGHLY LIKELY. OTHER COMPLAINTS ARE ON THE WEB WITH MANY PEOPLE AVOIDING DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT ALL DUE TO THE INABILITY TO PREDICT OCCURRENCES AND THE IMMEDIATE EFFECT THE LOSS OF POWER HAS. HOW CAN TWO MODELS WITH THE SAME EQUIPMENT BE RECALLED (COBALT AND G5) AND NOT THE SATURN ION?
