Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD MY PONTIAC G6 FOR ALMOST 6 YEARS NOW, VERY CLOSE TO PAYING IT OFF AND NOW I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH IT. EARLIER THIS YEAR I HAD THE FAULTY CATALYTIC CONVERTER. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO HAVE THAT REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. NOW NEARLY SIX MONTHS LATER I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY POWER STEERING. LIKE BEFORE RESEARCHING IT ONLINE I DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT SOME HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HAVE REPLACED FREE AND OTHERS HAVE WENT THROUGH A TERRIBLE NIGHTMARE. I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK THIS MORNING AND WAS TURNING OUT OF THE PARKING LOT OF WHERE I LIVE WHEN SUDDENLY POWER STEERING CAME UP ON THE MENU AND MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. WITH FORCE I WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER THE CAR OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON IT WAS FINE. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ON COMING TRAFFIC OR THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I'M HAVING THE CAR LOOKED AT FIRST THING IN THE MORNING TO DETERMINE WHAT IS WRONG AND WHAT IS COVERED. I'M HAVING SERIOUS DOUBTS ABOUT MY VEHICLE AND WHERE WILL THE FAULTY PARTS END? I HOPE THE NEXT ONE WILL NOT CAUSE MY DEATH OR SOMEONE ELSE'S. GM NEEDS TO FIX THIS! *TR
