Consumer Description

THE POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING. A WARNING LIGHT SAYING PWR STEERING APPEARED WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THE CAR WAS DRIVABLE BUT HARD TO MANEUVER DUE TO LACK OF POWER STEERING. ONCE I RESTART THE CAR IT RESETS AND THE POWER STEERING IS NORMAL UNTIL THE PROBLEM RECURS WHICH IS OFTEN. THERE IS COULD HAPPEN ON A SHORT OR LONG DRIVE. I COULD DRIVE A BLOCK THE LIGHT APPEARS I SHUT THE CAR OFF IT RESETS AND I COULD DRIVE FOR MILES AND IT NOT HAPPEN AGAIN OR GO ANOTHER BLOCK ONLY FOR THE PROBLEM TO HAPPEN ALL OVER AGAIN. FROM MY UNDERSTANDING THIS IS A RECOGNIZED ISSUE WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL OF SATURN AND IT WILL BE FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. HOW DO I GO ABOUT GETTING THIS FIXED WITHOUT IT COSTING ME SINCE THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM . I AM REPORTING IN HOPING IT WILL HELP TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM BE OFFICIALLY CALLED A RECALL BY GM AND SATURN AND FIXED ONCE AND FOR ALL. *TR
