 Description of the problemPower steering went out. Since its electrical assistant power steering their was little to nothing we could do other then bring it back to the dealership. When you first start up the car you has no power steering and had to restart the car a number of times before the power steering would start working again. I contacted the dealership and was able to bring it to the shop 1 week later for a diagnostics. 3/3/14 the diagnostics came back that the power steering column and module needed to be replaced. I express my concerns that this was a huge safety concern that we could lose all power to steering while we are driving the car. I asked him if our car was on the last recall that gm had for the pontiac g6 for this issue. Our vin was not recalled. I contacted gm directly and they told be they could give me a 50% discount because we were a loyal customer to the dealership and gm. Total repair was $1400. I believe gm should recall my vin numbers for repair before something bad happens.
