I bought my G6 in 2022. After about a year of having it, issues started happening. Everything was fine up until my passenger side airbag warning appeared on my radio screen and it won't go off. Could be a serious issue with the airbag. Maybe around the end of 2023 I started having problems with my power steering. I could drive down the road and all of a sudden my steering wheel would lock up. I could barely get myself to a spot to get off the road. I had to force the steering wheel to turn. I shut the car off for a minute or so just to see what would happen. After I turned the car back on the steering cleared, but as soon as I decided to go back home it locked back up. Now it's starting to lock back up this year. My major issue I...

Currently at around 220,000 miles and my power steering is constantly going out. Luckily it hasn’t gone out while driving, yet, but when I turn my car on the steering wheel is stiff and I get the power steering alert on the radio screen. I turn the car off and on a couple of times and it goes off. My concern is it happening while driving. Also, since this has occurred, my steering wheel shakes/turns left to right on its own while at a complete stop. As I’m driving I feel it trying to move on its own. Kind of scary.

The Power Steering stopped working randomly after driving on December 25th 2024, making it incredibly difficult to turn and keep the car steady. This made me feel very unsafe since I was driving my family. I searched online and apparently there had been recalls of my car model prior so I want to know if i qualify for this recall

Car loses power steering randomly...it has gone out in traffic...it usually goes out as soon as I put it in drive but if i turn the car off and re start it it steers fine. But when it lost power during rush hour traffic I was almost run over and had the hardest time steering to safety. Why is there not a recall on this because I've seen several reports of this happening.
#11574148 |
After purchasing my 2007 Pontiac G6 from a private seller, I quickly noticed a significant decline in steering responsiveness within just four days. A mechanic later confirmed that the entire steering rack needs replacement, and the cost of this exceeds the current value of the vehicle itself. This abrupt failure of such a critical component renders the car unsafe to drive. The specific component that failed is the steering rack, and it is available for inspection upon request. The safety risk emerged as the vehicle became increasingly difficult to control, heightening the potential for accidents and injuries to both myself and others on the road. While the problem has been confirmed by an independent service center, it has not yet been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or any other entities. No warning lamps or messages were indicating an issue with the steering system before the failure. The decline...

The contact owns a 2007 Pontiac G6. The contact stated while driving at 60 MPH, the vehicle began to vibrate abnormally. The contact stated several weeks later while stopped, the power steering message was displayed. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was restarted but the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic however, no cause for the failure was found. The mechanic reset the settings to the manufacturer's setting. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The dealer was contacted, and the contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V064000 (Steering). The dealer stated that the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 50,300.

The steering wheel will start to shake as you drive and then it will stop. It will start again, some times is jerking like it is going to break. I can be parked, going 10 mph or 55 mph, it was random but now it is increasing. I have taken to 2 shops and everyone thinks it is electrical.

GM has routed the high pressure power steering line up against the header exhaust. This was done consciously due to the fact that the manufacture put a foil heat shield sleeve on that section of the line. Anyone with a spec of engineering insight will confirm that this foil sleeve is a postponed or bandaid for the issue. It's not a fix nor a solution but a delay in the failure of the line. The thousands of exact same issues online reassures my assessment. The immediate conversion to manual steering with the rear tires covered in power steering fluid doesn't seem to fit well on an on ramp while elder driving. Thank you for your time.

My steering wheel has been having a mind of its own last couple of weeks. It moves by itself back and forth from left to right it takes alot of effort to keep it straight. Very dangerous today my power steering light came on. This is the first time the service light came in the but the problem itself started about 2 weeks ago. The steering wheel also vibrates on and off.

I purchased my 2007 pontiac g6 4 cylinder with 40k on the odometer on 5/13/2021. I notice right away it started having problem when i drove it home and it has been almost three weeks now and the problem is intermitten. This issue happens on local road city speed (25mph) and on highway doing highway speed (60mph) intermittently. When this issue occurs the steering wheel shake like crazy and it seems like it wants to pull over to the left or the right (feels like the car wants to drive itself). I would have to put some force to keep the steering wheel straight. The error code would pop up on the radio display stating "power steering". There was a recall for this issue for the electronic power steering assist. The problem is that the recall expired 6/31/2006 and my car is made on 7/2006 so the vin number does...

WHILE DRIVING, LOSE ABILITY TO TURN THE WHEEL. WILL GET CHATTER AS WELL AS LOUD BANG ON OCCASION. THIS HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES IN THE PAST 2 WEEKS AND RECENTLY WHILE MY 18 YR OLD SON (HIS CAR) WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY PULLING OFF AN EXIT GOING 45 MPH AND THANKFULLY WAS ABLE TO SLOW DOWN AND AVOID OTHER CARS. CAR HAS SAT SINCE WAITING FOR A MECHANIC TOO LOOK AT IT, WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR IT TO BE TOWED. VERY DANGEROUS AND LOOKS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE BUT FOR SOME REASON, NOT PART OF RECALL FOR 2006 AND 2008.

SUDDEN LOSE OF POWER STEERING. AFTER CAR STARTS UP, POWER STEERING IS PRESENT, HOWEVER AFTER VEHICLE IS MOVING, SUDDEN LOSE OF THE POWER STEERING OCCURS. A CHECK OF MY VIN STATES MY 2007 G6 IS NOT RELATED TO NHTSA BULLETIN 15V064000, HOWEVER IT IS FOR THE SAME EXACT MAKE, MODEL, YEAR, AND PART THAT IS AFFECTED. THE GM RECALL NUMBER IS 14772. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD THAT COULD RESULT IN MAJOR CRASH WITH POTENTIAL FOR SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH AS STEERING IS LOST WHILE IN MOTION. IT NOW OCCURS EVERY TIME VEHICLE IS DRIVEN AFTER A SHORT DISTANCE ON ROAD. GM NEEDS TO INVESTIGATE THAT MORE 2006-2007 PONTIAC G6 VEHICLES WITH THAT SAME TORQUE SENSOR BE IMPACTED BY RECALL 14722 IMMEDIATELY.
