NHTSA Complaint #10569140 — 2006 SATURN ION

EVERY FEW WEEKS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING MY POWER STEERING FAILS AND IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER THE CAR UNTIL STOPPED. THIS HAPPENS WITHOUT NOTICE AND AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS, SOMETIMES WHILE THE VEHICLE IS SITTING AND OTHER TIMES WHEN DRIVING. WHEN MY GIRLFRIEND OWNED THE VEHICLE GM DID REPLACE THE STEERING COLUMN THREE TIMES. I'VE OWNED THE CAR FOR ALMOST TWO YEARS AND THIS PROBLEM IS STILL ONGOING AND IT'S VERY UNSAFE. NOW ALONG WITH THE IGNITION RECALL I FEEL THAT THIS VEHICLE IS NOT FIT FOR USE ON PUBLIC ROADS. IF THERE IS A SOLUTION TO GET THIS VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW ABOUT IT. *TR
