Consumer Description

TAKATA RECALL. MY PONTIAC G6 2009 HAS A POWER STEERING RECALL BUT THEY WONT FIX IT BECAUSE IT DOESNT COME IN AS A RECALL WHEN THEY TYPE IN MY VIN BUT IV READ ABOUT THE RECALL, EVERY TIME IT GETS COLD MY POWER STEERING GOES OUT, DOESNT MATTER IF IM ON THE EXPRESSWAY OR JUST STARTED MY CAR IT RANDOMLY WILL GO OUT, I HAVE A ELECTRIC MOTOR SO I KNOW IM NOT JUST OUT OF FLUID, IT DOESNT HAPPEN IN THE SUMMER TIME ONLY WINTER WHEN IT GETS COLD. WHAT DO I DO? I DONT HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX IT AND I FEEL IT IS WRONG THAT THE RECALL IS THERE BUT THEY WONT FIX IT JUST BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER DOES NOT MATCH THE RECALL.
