Consumer Description
WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE POWER STEERING SEEMED TO FAIL AND IT TOOK A GREAT DEAL OF STRENGTH TO COMPLETE THE TURN. I HAVE ALSO HAD THIS PROBLEM WHEN MAKING RIGHT TURNS. IT HAPPENS AT LOW SPEEDS BEING THAT IT HAPPENS WHEN TURNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIME. I SEE THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON SOME VEHICLES BUT NOT MINE FOR THE SAME TYPE OF ISSUE. I AM AFRAID THAT I WILL LOOSE CONTROL OF MY CAR. MY SERVICE CENTER, WHICH IS A SATURN AUTHORIZED DEALER MENTIONED A STEERING SENSOR, BUT I BELIEVE IT IS A POWER STEERING ISSUE. THEY TOLD ME THE REPAIR WOULD COST OVER $500.
