2004 SATURN ION Electronic Stability Control Esc Problems

I BOUGHT THIS CAR AS A FIRST CAR FOR MY DAUGHTER THAT IS A NEW DRIVER. I HAS BEEN OFF THE ROAD MORE THAN ON THE ROAD FOR RECALLS. THE FIRST IGNITION RECALL COULD HAVE INJURED OR KILLED MY DAUGHTER..AS WE WERE AWAITING PARTS, WE WERE FOLLOWING DIRECTIONS OF NO WEIGHT ON KEY RING AND ONLY KEY IN IGNITION. THE INCIDENT STILL HAPPENED CAUSING LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND LOSS OF SPEED. AS A NEW DRIVER THIS INCIDENT SCARRED HER AND SHE DID NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING THE CAR. I PUT THE CAR UP FOR SALE. THEN ANOTHER RECALL, THE EPS WHICH ALSO CAUSES THE CAR TO LOSE POWER STEERING AND CAUSES SPEED LOSS. SO, BACK TO GARBER AND WE JUST DROVE THE CAR BACK HOME ON JANUARY 2, 2015. SEEMED TO START OUT FINE, THEN LOSS OF SPEED AND THE CAR ONLY DROVE AT 35 MPH WITH A LOT...

MY CAR WAR JUST REPAIRED FOR THE RECALL IGNITION, HOWEVER, IT IS STILL NOT WORKING RIGHT. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THE POWER STEERING IS GOING OFF AND ON. THE POWER STEERING WENT OFF TWICE ON MY WAY HOME AFTER I PICKED IT UP FROM THE DEALER, ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I HAD TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TWICE. I CONTACTED THE DEALER, BUT THEY SHOW NOTHING ON THE POWER STEERING. THIS IS THE ONLY VEHICLE MY FAMILY HAS, AND I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR. IT IS NOT SAFE! I HAVE HAD FILES OPEN SINCE 2008 ABOUT THE POWER STEERING, AND OTHER ISSUES. SATURN IS AWARE OF THE ISSUES. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE POWER STEERING REPLACED TWICE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ALONG AND SUDDENLY, THE POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING. WAS IN THE PASSING LANE MOVING BACK INTO THE TRAVEL LANE WHEN WITHOUT WARNING THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING. NO ALARMS WENT OF WARNING ME SOMETHING WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY BUT HAD A HARDER TIME MAKING TURNS ON THE SIDE STREETS. I HAVE NEVER BEFORE HEARD OF THE PROBLEMS THAT ARE SUDDENLY AFFECTING MY CAR. *JS

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS I HAVE LOST THE ABILITY TO CONTROL THE STEERING WHEEL. ALSO, I HAVE EXPERIENCED MY CAR TURNING OFF WHILE DRIVING WHICH THANKFULLY HAS A RECALL ON IT BUT I WANT THE POWER STEERING TO BE RECALLED AS WELL BECAUSE IT HAS CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AND MULTIPLE NEAR MISSES. *TR

TODAY 8/8/12, I JUMPED INTO MY 2004 SATURN ION AT 5PM AFTER WORK & IMMEDIATELY NOTICED THAT I COULD NOT TURN MY WHEEL AS I EXITED THE PARKING LOT, I HAD TO SWERVE HARD TO MY RIGHT TO BY AVOID A COLLISION WITH TWO CARS FROM THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. I WAS TERRIFIED! MY DISPLAY SHOWED "PWR STR" I HAD NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE, I LEFT MY CAR DIAGONALLY PARKED, SINCE IT WOULD NOT MOVE WENT FOR ASSISTANCE, A PASSERBY LOOKED UNDER MY HOOD FOR A WHILE THEN TURNED MY CAR ON AND THE DISPLAY WAS BACK TO MILEAGE AND MY WHEEL WAS WORKING FINE!! I DROVE MY CAR HOME AND IMMEDIATELY STARTED TO DO SOME RESEARCH TO FIND OUT WHAT IT COULD BE AND HOW I COULD FIX IT, I FIND OUT THAT THEIR IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE POWER STEERING! I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY LETTERS AT ALL....

WHILE DRIVING MY SATURN ION 2004 THE POWER STEERING LIGHT IN THE DASHBOARD CAME ON WHILE I WAS ENGAGING IN A CURVE ON HIGHWAY 15, I WAS BARELY ABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE NO TO CRASH ON THE CONCRETE MIDDLE DIVIDER AND HAD TO IMMOBILIZE THE VEHICLE, STOP THE ENGINE AND RESTART IT IN ORDER TO GET THE POWER STEERING TO WORK AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPEN TO ME FEW TIME PER YEAR OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS BUT NOW I AM AFRAID FOR MY LIFE AND IT IS HAPPENING MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY. *TR
