STEERING
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.

STEERING
SOMETIMES THE POWER STEERING DOES NOT ENGAGE WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED ON, SO YOU HAVE TO SHUT THE CAR OFF A FEW TIMES UNTIL THE POWER STEERING ENGAGES. WHEN THE POWER STEERING DOES TURN ON THE WHOLE STEERING COLUMN WILL PULSATE. THIS HAPPENS WHEN YOU DRIVE THE CAR AND WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED. I DO HAVE VIDEO IF NEEDED.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), POWER TRAIN, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE BREAK LIGHTS ARE ALWAYS ON. THEY ONLY TURN OFF WHEN I STOP WHICH HAS ALOMST GOTTEN ME REAR ENDED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE FRONT LEFT HEADLIGHT CANNOT BE REPAIRED DUE TO IMPORPER WIRING AND IVE HAD IT LOOKED AT TWICE ONLY TO NOT BE ABLE TO FIND THE PROBLEM. ALSO, WHEN I AM DRIVING THE CAR WILL NOT GO BELOW 3RD AND IS NOT PROPERLY SHIFTING CAUSING ACCELERATING PROBLEMS, WHEN DRIVING IN GENERAL, AND AM UNABLE TO KEEP A PROPER AMOUNT OF GAS BECAUSE ITS BURING THROUGH DUE TO THIS. I HAVE PROBLEMS WHEN DRIVING, ESPECIALLY ON THE HIGHWAY, AND THE BREAKS AND HEADLIGHT ARE ALWAYS A PROBLEM WHETER DRIVING OR IN PARK. THIS HAPPENS EVERY DAY!

STEERING
MY VEHICLES POWER STEERING AND TRACTION CONTROL STRUTS OFF AT RANDOM EVEN AFTER REPLACING THE POWER STEERING UNIT THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR A WHILE AND I CANT SEEM TO GET IT FIXED. IT TYPICALLY HAPPENS WHILE IN IDLE OR FIRST OR SECOND GEAR AND REQUIRES ME TO PULL OVER AND RESTART THE CAR. ITS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD AND I AM LOCATING A LOT OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER G6 OWNERS AND A RECALL BACK IN 2014 BUT I NEVER DECIDED A LETTER AND I GOT MY CAR IN 2013. *TR
