Description of the problem | Hearing a popping noise everytime i turn left.... Getting worse.... Took to get new tires and brakes and was told i needed to take to pontiac to find out what the noise was...(. Had it in at pontiac in 2008 for steering)... I paid $95 labor for them to tell me that the steering gear was faulty... My car has low mileage,it is well maintained and the steering gear is faulty.. I called pontiac customer service about this and was told that there was no recall on the steering and i was responsible for the repair... In my search for more information on this i found that i am not alone and that there seems to be a lot of us g6 owners out there that have problems with the steering ..... Is this not a safety hazard...... From what i have read i would say so.... I feel its time to demand a recall for steering issues with the g6, there is a great chance they will lock up or you may loss you steering all together from what i have read from other complaints..... When i asked the mechanic at pontiac if it was safe to drive his answerer was ...."i don't know"..... What an answer to give to some that is about to pull out of your lot..... Really |
