| Where do i begin!!! my g6 i love but apparently the electrical power steering goes out. so, with that being said you have no power steering. its is really hard to turn your wheel, on highway to get off an exit, pull in to park somewhere, make a tight turn, and try and pull out of a tight parking situation. i realize one of the ways to fix the problem is to get it fix (obviously outrageous price), or just turn the car off and restart that seems to work. so, apparently about 3-4 years ago gm realized this manufacture defect/recall but not a safety recall? i don't understand it but you know how big companies are never want to be accountable. ok, so in 2010 i receive this letter from gm about this loss of power steering but in the letter reminder it states the vehicle can still be steered in a safe manner but will require greater driver effort at low vehicle speeds or when stopped. ok so when you are on the highway??? i work alot and have to travel, and for personal reasons i travel a good bit. i have been very lucky when this defect occurs either someone with me to guide me through it or for some reason the highway is non busy and i can pull over (reminder 2 hands on the wheel with no power steering using all my arm strength to pull over) ok, so again this gm letter, so ok course after trying to jump some hoops i don't meet the requirements for this repair to fix by gm at their cost. that letter states vehicles with less than 100,000miles..yea ok, me i travel!!! crazy so i complain why not right. so, 2 years pass receive a letter from gm again about this power steering issue now 150,000ml..again!!! *tr | |||
