2007 SATURN ION Steering Problems

Power steering went out. I was driving and I was on the freeway and the steering wouldn't move like it should. It became very hard to steer so I exited off the highway and pulled in to a store barely missing the sign. I call a friend and had the car towed home and looked at. I was told the eps went out. The next time I started the car it said power steering on the odometer. The dealership said the recall was closed out already. But I still have no ability to steer the car. It sits unrepaired and I undrivable.

While driving the car has issues with power steering when turning the wheel either direction the steering will lose power steering and jerk the opposite direction turning. I have almost been in numerous accidents now the worst going 75 on highway passing semi around a corner and it jerked and almost sent me right not the semi. This has happened numerous times as I was passing vehicles. Its not a steady no power steering it will do it out of the blue and anymore it's more times than not and again only when turning the wheel. It's scary. Our vin # isn't specified with the recall but has serious power steering issue. No warning lamps or anything like that. We have not had this vehicle inspected yet by a dealership. As far as the incident date it's not one specific date. It does this every day the car is driven.

The contact owns a 2007 Saturn Ion. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering column became inoperable, and the steering wheel locked up. The contact stated that the power steering warning light was illuminated. The contact stopped the vehicle and turned the vehicle off. The contact stated restarted the vehicle and was able to safely drive to her destination. The contact stated that the failure had occurred twice within six months. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 160,000.

I will drive a short distance and my power steering goes out. Where my milage is there was a message that said pwr str.

MY STEERING COLUMN IS ALL MESSED UP, CAN CAUSE ME TO LOSE CONTROL OF MY CAR. ALSO YEAR OF CAR WAS RECALLED A COUPLE YEARS AGO FOR THE SAME REASON AND SADLY ENOUGH MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THAT RECALL. MY STEERING COLUMN MESSES UP THE MOST, WHILE DRIVE AND DEFINETLY WHILE TURNING RESULTING IN A VERY BAD GRINDING NOISE OF MY STEERING WHEEL

THE POWER STEERING LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND IT IS HARD TO STEER AND THE KEY KEEPS GETTING STUCK IN THE IGNITION. CAR WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED ON. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN ION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING THE STEERING WHEEL WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN IN EITHER DIRECTION.

I WAS ON A COUNTY ROAD I BE]BELIEVE THAT THE SUSPENSION WENT OUT AS WELL I KNOW THE STEERING DID I HAD NO CONTROL.

ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING FAILED, WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED UPON RESTART AFTER AN OIL CHANGE, THE 'USUAL' SYMPTOMS (HARD TO TURN WHEEL, ESPECIALLY AT LOW SPEEDS, ETC.) FOR PS FAILURE. AFTER TWO START/STOP CYCLES, THE FAILURE RESOLVED ITSELF MAKING ME THINK IT IS A WIRING/SENSOR ISSUE. THIS HAPPENED OVER TWO MONTHS AGO, AND THE PROBLEM HAS NOT REAPPEARED. APROX 60000 MILES AT THE TIME OF FAILURE. THERE IS LIKELY SOMETHING FAILING HERE, AND IT IS SAFETY RELATED, BUT IT IS INTERMITTANT AT THIS POINT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN ION. WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS OR WHEN MAKING TURNS, THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO STEER AND THE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. WHILE IN TRAFFIC, THE CONTACT POWERED OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. AFTERWARDS, THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

IN JANUARY 2016 WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY TO WORK I HAD BEAR TO THE RIGHT AT AN INTERSECTION FROM 1-90 TO 1-76, WHEELS/STEERING LOCKED OR SOMETHING AND I ENDED UP SPINNING OFF ROADWAY. HIT DIVISION EMBANKMENT CRASHING FRONT END AND MY AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. TRACTION IN THE CAR I LATER FOUND OUT WAS NOT ENGAGING WHEN IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN. NOW CAR'S TRACTION DOES NOT WORK IF IT EVER REALLY DID. I HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH GM COMPLAINTS DEPARTMENT AND NOW I HAVE BEEN ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER BUT THIS IS ABOUT RECALLS ON Y VEHICLE THAT I DO NOT KNOW THEY REALLY ARE BECAUSE SATURN WANTS ME TO PAY TO GET THIS INFORMATION. I ASKED WHY BUT DID NOT GET AN ANSWER. ONLY WAS TOLD THAT RECALLS ARE VIN SPECIFIC AND I NEEDED TO GO TO HTTPS://WWW.VINCHECKPRO.COM/VIN-REGISTER. NOW MY VEHICLE HAS A CONTROL BOARD THAT IS GOING...

I WAS STARTING MY CAR GETTING READY TO GO TO CHURCH, AND THE STEERING WHEEL WOULDN'T TURN, THEN MY POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD MY GRANDDAUTHER TO CALL A MECHANIC AND THEY SAID THAT IT MIGHT BE A ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. MY CAR WAS IN A PARKING SPACE WHERE I LIVE. I DID GET THE CHANCE TO MOVE THE CAR. I CAN DRIVE THE CAR BUT I'M AFRAID THAT IT WILL LOCK ON ME WHILE DRIVING IT.

THE VEHICLE SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE AFTER BEING DRIVEN AND SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE WHEN STATIONARY. THE POWER STEERING WILL DISPLAY A WARMING MESSAGE AND THE CAR WILL BECOME HARD TO STEER.

I OWN A 2007 SATURN ION, I RECENTLY STARTED HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE STEERING, THE STEERING WHEEL IS VERY TIGHT AND WHEN I MAKE A TURN I NEED TO PHYSICALLY TURN THE WHEEL BACK IF I DON'T THE CAR WILL CONTINUE GOING IN THE DIRECTION I WAS TURNING. I AM NOW HAVING TROUBLE KEEPING IT ON THE ROAD AS IT WANTS TO PULL TO THE LEFT, IT IS IN ALINEMENT. I PURCHASED MY CAR IN 2013 FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER I DID RECEIVE THE RECALL NOTICE FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH BUT NEVER RECEIVED NOTICE 14V15300. WHEN I ENTER MY VIN# IT SHOWS THAT THERE NO RECALLS.I DRIVE 36 MILES A DAY FOR WORK, I HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT BUT IT'S GETTING TO THE POINT THAT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE AND THIS IS MY ONLY VEHICLE.

I WAS ON MY WAY HOME JUST GETTING OFF HIGHWAY WITH SPEED LIMIT OF 65 MPH, WHEN I PARKED AT LOCAL GROCERY STORE NEAR MY HOME. PARKED IN STALL FINE BUT ABOUT 10 MINUTES LATER I FOUND UPON ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE OUT OF THE STALL, I COULD HARDLY TURN MY CAR TO MAKE IT OUT OF THE PARKING LOT. I WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY DRIVE IT HOME HOPING IT WOULD CORRECT ITSELF THEN NOTICING POWERED STEERING LIGHT ON DASH. ON ARRIVAL TO MY HOME I PARKED BACKWARDS IN FEAR OF GETTING STUCK. I THEN TRIED NUMEROUS TIMES TO TURN ON AND OFF THE CAR WITH NO CHANGE IN STEERING OR DASHBOARD LIGHT. FORTUNATELY THIS HAPPENED LITERALLY A MILE OFF THE HIGHWAY WHICH I COULD HAVE EASILY GOTTEN INTO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT WITH MUCH HIGHER SPEEDS AND NO CONTROL TO DRIVE THE AUTOMOBILE.

I HIT MY BRAKES TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT MY CAR WENT TO LEFT IN FRONT OF ANOTHER CAR. I FOUND OUT THAT STRUTS SHIFTED AND CAUSING THE UPPER CONTROL ARM TO SNAP AND BRAKE OFF CAUSING MY CAR TO GO TO THE LEFT INTO ANOTHER CAR. *TR

POWER STEERING FAILED THIS MORNING. NO WARNING AND NO PREVIOUS ISSUES. IT WORKED ONE MOMENT THEN DIDN'T THE NEXT. PWR STR CAME ON THE DASH ALERTS. I SAW A 2014 RECALL YET MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED.

POWER STEERING GOES OUT INTERMITTENTLY

FRONT DRIVER'S SEATBELT IS DIFFICULT TO SNAP IN. POWER STEERING WORKS INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING AND BRAKING

MY COMPLAINT NUMBER IS 11061303 I COMPLAIN ABOUT POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND I DID NOT RECEIVE A RECALL NOTICE. I GUESS WHEN THEY DID THE IGNITION RECALL AND I BROUGHT IT IN THEY SUPPOSEDLY DID THE POWER STEERING TOO ON DEC 12 2014 . EVEN IF THEY DID THIS THE POWER STEERING SHOULD NOT GO BAD IN 3 YEARS. MY CAR IS GARAGE KEPT.

POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON AND LOST STEERING FOUND OUT THEY HAD RECALL NEVER WAS INFORMED OF THE MATTER OR RECALL. HAD A PROBLEM WITH GAS LINE ABOUT A YEAR AGO TOOK TO DEALERSHIP CAUSE THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT WAS TOLD MINE WASN'T COVERED EVEN THOUGH IT SHOULD OF BEEN COST ME 900 DOLLARS. ONLY RECALL I RECEIVED WAS FOR IGNITION.

OVER THE LAST THREE TO FOUR YEARS MY POWER STEERING HAS WENT OUT MY FRONT PASSENGER TIRE HAS ALMOST FALLEN OFF TWICE I HAD TO HAVE IT FIXED MY CAR DON'T WANT TO START AFTER I FILL IT UP IT'S SPUTTERS EVERY TIME AND I'VE HAD LITERALLY HAD TO GET CUT OUT OF MY SEATBELT BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT UNLATCH AND MIKEY DON'T WANT TO COME OUT OF THE IGNITION HAVE THE TIME. THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING THE TIRE ALMOST FELL OFF WHILE DRIVING AND OF COURSE I'M STOPPED WHEN I'M FUELING AND I WAS STOPPED WHEN I WAS STUCK IN MY SEATBELT AND STOPPED EVERY TIME I TRY TO TAKE MY KEY OUT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN ION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED BY A DEALER (HORNE MOTORS OF SHOW LOW, 1-888-522-8962, 1700 S WHITE MOUNTAIN RD, SHOW LOW, AZ 85901) FOR A MANUFACTURER RECALL CONCERNING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE RECALL REMEDY CAUSED A FAILURE AND NO SOLUTION PERTAINING TO THE IGNITION SWITCH, WHICH ALSO AFFECTED THE STEERING. THE DEALER REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP, STEERING COLUMN, AND IGNITION. THE DEALER ALSO PROVIDED TWO KEYS THAT WERE TO BE REPROGRAMMED; HOWEVER, THEY FAILED TO LOCK AND UNLOCK THE DOORS. THE CONTACT HAD TO USE THE KEY FOB. IN ADDITION, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN AND THE VEHICLE STALLED SEVERAL TIMES INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY THREE LOCKSMITHS. ONE OF THE LOCKSMITHS STATED THAT THE STEERING COLUMN WAS LOOSELY CONNECTED. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO SERVICED BY (MOLLE CHEVROLET, (816) 229-8800) WHO STATED THAT THERE...

SINCE HAVING THE RECALLS FOR THE IGNITION DONE - WHEN THE CAR IS PLACED IN PARK I HAVE TO PULL THE SHIFTER TOWARD REVERSE TO GET THE KEY OUT. ALSO SINCE THE RECALLS WERE DONE ALL THE SUDDEN MY STEERING RACK IS MAKING A CLUNKING NOISE WHICH MY MECHANIC IS SAYING WILL SOON NEED REPLACED. IT WAS PERFECTLY FINE BEFORE THE RECALLS FOR THE IGNITION AND SUCH WERE DONE ON MY CAR. LITERALLY THE DAYS AFTER IS WHEN IT STARTED AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT IT IS BECAUSE MY CAR IS OLD. NOT BUYING THAT ANSWER. ALL OF THIS HAS TO BE TIED TO A RECALL, I TAKE GREAT CARE OF MY CAR. I JUST HAD THE CONTROL ARMS REPLACED AS WELL AND THE MECHANIC SAID THEY WERE NEAR DISINTEGRATED!

POWERING STERRING LIGHT ON AGAAGAIN VERY HARD TO DRIVE HAD TO USE FLASERS TO GET HOME FROM CHURCH THIS WENT ONM SATURDAY AND SUNDATY BY MODAY IT CORRECTED ITSELF HOWEVER IT ICALLED HOLMAN CADIILC WERE I GET IT SERVICED THEY NEVER CALLED ME BACK WWITH A STRAIGHT ANSWER ON WHAT THEY WAMT ME TO DO

STEERING RANDOMLY FAILS IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN, AS IF IT "STICKS" AND I HAVE TO FORCE THE STEERING WHEEL BACK TO CENTER. I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF THE DRIVER HAD TO MAKE AN EVASIVE MENOUVER OR IS INEXPERIENCED AND NOT EXPECTING IT TO FAIL. THIS OCCURS WHILE MOVING, AND WHILE PARKED, ON ANY STREET OR HIGHWAY.

MY CAR HAD THE POWER STEERING MOTOR REPLACED UNDER A SAFETY RECALL IN 2012. NOW THE SAME PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED AGAIN, AND THE POWER STEERING MOTOR HAS GONE OUT. I MISSED THE SPECIAL EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS BY 2 DAYS - IT EXPIRED ON 3/27/17, AND IT WENT OUT AGAIN ON MY CAR ON 3/29/17. NOW I'M TOLD IT CANNOT BE REPAIRED AGAIN UNDER THE SAFETY RECALL. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT IF A PART IS COVERED UNDER A SAFETY RECALL BECAUSE IT CAN FAIL, IS REPLACED, THEN FAILS AGAIN, THERE IS STILL A PROBLEM WITH THAT PART BEING USED IN THE CAR. IT SHOULD STILL BE ABLE TO BE REPLACED AT NO CHARGE TO THE OWNERS. I KNOW THAT FOR 2003 SATURN ION THE RECALL APPIES TO THE LIFE OF THE CAR.

I HAVE A SATURN ION AND I AM HAVING AN ISSUE DESCRIBED IN A RECALL. I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO A GM DEALER AND CALLED THE GM CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO HONOR THE RECALL. THE VEHICLE LOSSES POWER STEERING PERIODICALLY AND IT IS VERY SCARY TO DRIVE.

THE POWER STEERING ALL OF THE SUDDEN GOES OUT AND IT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO TURN. I ALMOST GOT AN ACCIDENT TODAY WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH ON THE FREEWAY, BECAUSE THE POWER STEERING JUST STOPPED WORKING. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE OFTEN, AND IT OCCURS AT SPEED GREATER THAN 35 MPH. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT GM CUSTOMER SERVICE TOLD ME THAT THERE IS NO ACTIVE RECALL.

SATURN ION 2007 RECALL THE OTHER DAY I GOT AN ALERT ON THE DISPLAY OF MY CAR THAT STATED "PWR STRG" I WAS ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT THAT COULD HAVE KILLED MY 3 YOUNG CHILDREN AND MYSELF. WE WERE TERRIFIED. I WAS ABLE TO GET ON THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY BY FORCING THE STIRRING WHEEL TO TURN. I THEN LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD TO SEE IF I HAD A LEAK OF POWER STIRRING FLUID BUT TO MY SURPRISE DID NOT FIND ANYWHERE THAT WOULD INDICATE SUCH A THING. WHEN I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON TO SEE WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM THE MSG WAS GONE. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR HOME BUT BEFORE I GOT HOME THE MSG CAME BACK ON AND I HAD TO REPEAT IT ALMOST GETTING INTO A SECOND CAR ACCIDENT. I IMMEDIATELY DID RESEARCH ON WHAT COULD...

SUDDEN POWER STEERING FAILURE, THE STEERING CONTINUED TO WORK BUT WITHOUT THE POWER ASSIST. WE WERE ATTEMPTING TO BACK OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, VERY LOW SPEED, TURNING. THIS RESET WITH SHUTTING THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTING. GM/SATURN STATE THIS IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL.

I OWN A SATURN WHICH I GOT USED.THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER.FOUND OUT THE RECALLS HAVE ALL BEEN DONE THAT HAS TO DO WITH THE POWER STEERING BUT THE CODE THE SCANNER GAVE IS A C0550 WHICH IS A FAILURE OF THE POWER STEERING COLUMN INTERNAL CONTROLLER ISSUE.OTHER GM CARSS WITH THE SAME RECALLS THAT MY CAR HAS HAD DONE INCLUDE THE COLUMN BUT NOT MINE.IT SEEMS THAT THEY SEEM TO SHARE STE SAME COMPONETS AND FAILURES.THIS PART ALONE IS OVER $500 WITHOUT LABOR.THE TECH TOLD ME THAT ITS NOT A HARD JOB AND HES DONE ALOT OF THEM.SEARCHING THE INTERNET ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE COLUMN.THERE SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM BUT CUSTOMERS LIKE ME AREE HAVING TO PAY FOR THE CORRECTION

A GENERAL MOTOR RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED IN THE PAST FOR A LOSS OF POWER STEERING ONLY ON CERTAIN VEHICLES IN THE PAST YEAR. A PROBLEM IS CORROSION OF THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING MODULE AND THE TORQUE SENSOR CONNECTOR MAY CAUSE A LOSS OF THE POWER STEERING. THIS WILL CAUSE GREATER OPERATING POWER BY THE DRIVER UNDER LOW SPEED DRIVING AND CAUSES A GREATER CHANCE OF AN ACCIDENT OR DEATH BECAUSE THE DIFFICULTY IN DRIVING A VEHICLE EFFECTED BY THIS PROBLEM. GM HAS MADE THIS A RECALL TO BE FIXED IN THE DEALER, BUT ONLY CERTAIN VEHICLES, THE SATURN ION WAS INVOLVED, AND I HAD IT CORRECTED, BUT WHAT I EXPERIENCED BEFORE, IS BACK AGAIN, AND I BELIEVE THE POWER STEERING ASSIST IS DEFECTIVE AGAIN. MANY RECALLS IN THE PAST HAVE BEEN REOCCURRING ISSUES WITH VEHICLES, AND THIS MAY BE ANOTHER ONE.
