NHTSA Complaint #10953740 — 2005 PONTIAC G6

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLES ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING FAILED RESULTING IN A NEARLY EMINENT COLLISION WITH ADJACENT TRAFFIC. MY FAMILY WAS WITHIN THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME AND I FELT GENUINE TERROR IN REGARD TO THEIR SAFETY. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO AVOID THE COLLISION AS THE STEERING BEGAN TO LOCK AND TIGHTEN UP, HOWEVER THROUGH SHEER POWER AND LUCK I MANAGE TO AVOID THE VEHICLES IN THE LANES ADJACENT TO ME. GM HAS HAD SPECIFIC NOTIFICATION OF THIS ISSUE THROUGH NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS BY CUSTOMERS AND HAS APPARENTLY TAKEN THE APPROACH THAT THEY WOULD RATHER RISK THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS THAN DO THE RIGHT THING AND CREATE A RECALL IN REGARD TO POWER STEERING TO MAKE THEIR VEHICLES SAFE FOR CONSUMERS. I HAVE CONTACTED GM TO NO AVAIL AS THEY TREAT RECALLS ON A VIN SPECIFIC BASIS TO AVOID PUBLIC LIABILITY AND HAVE CHOSEN TO ATTEMPT TO MAKE ME PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THEIR NEGLIGENCE AND WONTON DISREGARD FOR THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS.
