Consumer Description

MY MALIBU MAXX 2004 WAS BOUGHT NEW. IT HAS THE POWER STEERING ISSUE EVER SINCE IT WAS NEW. UNDER ACCELERATION ON HIGHWAYS (E.G. DRIVING UPHILL IN MOUNTAINS ETC. ) WHEN STEERING LEFT AROUND A CURVE, THE POWER STEERING LOCKS UP AND JERKS, AND DASH LIGHTS FLASH FOR A FEW SECONDS. THIS HAS HAPPENED EVER SINCE IT WAS NEW. THE ISSUE CAN'T BE REPRODUCED BY DEALERSHIP AND AUTO REPAIR STORES. GM HAS A RECALL IN 2014 REGARDING POWER STEERING BUT THE PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED, THE ISSUE IS LIFE THREATENING!!
