Consumer Description
I HAVE HAD A RECURRING PROBLEM FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS, WHERE THE POWER STEERING, TRACTION CONTROL AND ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL ALL ATOP WORKING AT THE SAME TIME. I HAVE SOUGHT ASSISTANCE FROM GM. THE DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THE CAR ISN'T STORING A CODE. I HAVE PROVIDED THEM WITH PICTURES, BUT THEY CHOOSE NOT TO HELP. THE PROBLEM IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON OTHER YEARS OF THE PONTIAC G6. GM WEBSITE SAYS THEY FIX THE PROBLEM ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS. PICTURE AND VIDEO PROOF MEAN NOTHING IF THE CAR ISN'T STORING A CODE. CODES FLASH ACROSS DISPLAY THAT SAY "CHECK POWER STEERING " "SERVICE TRACTION" "SERVICE ESC". ONLY WAY FOR ME TO CLEAR IS TO SHUT OFF CAR AND TURN BACK ON. ALL PEER STEERING IS LOST WHEN PROBLEM OCCURS. ALTHOUGH I'VE LISTED. ONLY ONE DATE, WHICH WAS THE MOST RECENT, THE PROBLEM OCCURRED IN 1/2014, TWICE IN 7/2014, 12/2016 AND IN 3/2017.
