POWER STREELING
POT HOLE ON CRATER ROAD PETERSBURG, VA MESSED UP RIM AND TIRE
I HAVE EXPERIENCE SOME ISSUES WITH POWER STEERING ON MY VEHICLE ON AND OFF, HERE IN THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS IT HAS WORSEN. IT IS A VERY SCARY SITUATION. THE POWER STEERING STOPS WORKING WHILE I AM OPERATING THE VEHICLE CAUSING THE WHEEL TO BECOME VERY DIFFICULT TO OPERATE SPECIFICALLY AS I NEED TO MAKE A TURN. I USUALLY HAVE TO APPLY A GREAT DEAL OF FORCE JUST TO TURN. I FEEL LIKE MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY IS T RISK. HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH GM WHO HAS MADE CONTACT WITH A DEALER SO I CAN TAKE MY CAR IN TO BE DIAGNOSED. THEY HAVE STATED THAT MY VEHICLE HAS A COUPLE OF RECALLS BUT THE POWER STEERING ISSUE IS NOT ONE OF THEM. I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND MANY OTHER 2006 G6 OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM ON DIFFERENT SITES. INTERESTING...
THE STEERING WOULDN'T RESPOND, STIFF LIKE DRIVING WITHOUT POWER STEERING. POWER STEERING CODE CAME UP ON RADIO AND ERROR CAME UP OVER ODOMETER READING ALOG F WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. WENT AWAY AFTER A WHILE BUT CONTINUES TO HAVE THE NO RESPONSE PERIODICALLY. CODE WON'T GO AWAY. *TR
DRIVING ONE DAY AND HEAR THUMPING, ENDS UP THAT 2 LUG NUTS ARE MISSING ON THE FRONT RIGHT TIRE, BUY 2 LUG NUTS AND PUT THEM ON PROBLEM FIXED RIGHT? WRONG!!!!!! NOW ALMOST A YEAR LATER, (HOW MANY PEOPLE CHECK THEIR LUG NUTS EVERYDAY, NO ONE BECAUSE YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TOO.) THERE ARE 3 LUG NUTS MISSING ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE CAR 1 ON THE BACK TIRE AND NOW 2 BROKEN LUG NUT SCREWS ON THE FRONT RIGHT TIRE???? I KNOW, HOW DO THE SCREWS THAT THE LUG NUTS GO ONTO BRAKE?? I'LL TELL YOU WHY, BECAUSE THE CAR IS ALWAYS SHAKING, HIT A BUMP AND THE WHOLE CAR FEELS LIKE ITS GOING TO BRAKE. INSTEAD OF "FEELING SO FLY IN MY G-6" THEY SHOULD HAVE MADE A SONG CALLED "BRAKING DOWN IN MY G-6" I WOULD HAVE BOUGHT THAT SONG CAUSE ITS TRUE!!!!!!!!! WITH THE RECALL ON...
I BOUGHT MY '06 PONTIAC G6 IN JUNE OF 08. I HAD TO HAVE NEW BRAKES PUT ON THE CAR IN DEC '08. AT THE BRAKE SHOP I WAS INFORMED THAT MY ROTORS WERE BADLY WORN (MORE THAN NORMAL) SO I HAD THEM MACHINED, THE TECH ALSO INFORMED ME THAT I NEEDED NE CALIPERS. IN JAN OF '09 MY BREAKS BEGAN SQUEALING AGAIN! MY ROTORS WERE ONCE AGAIN WORN! I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE BRAKING SYSTEM OF THIS MODEL AND THEREFORE BELIEVE THAT THERE MUST BE A DEFECT. I NEEDED NEW ROTORS WHEN THE CAR ONLY HAD 60K MILES! THIS IS NOT NORMAL!!!!! IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE BY GM ON THIS ISSUES, AND I BELIEVE THAT IT IS TIME!!!! I AM AFRAID THAT ONE DAY MY BREAKS ARE GOING TO GO OUT! I CAN NOT AFFORD TO HAVE MY BRAKES DONE EVERY MONTH,...
