I CALLED THE GM DEALER WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED AND WAS TOLD THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING AS THERE IS NO CURRENT RECALL ON THE VEHICLE. THIS HAS OCCURRED FREQUENTLY SINCE THAT TIME. I HAVE BEEN SITTING AT A STOP SIGN OR A RED LIGHT, DRIVING THROUGH A CITY AND ALSO SITTING STATIONARY WHEN THIS HAS HAPPENED. NOW THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES CONSTANTLY AND IT IS DIFFICULT TO TURN. I ASKED MY MECHANIC TO LOOK AT IT AND HE SAID THE COMPUTER SHOWS 2 THINGS; STEERING COLUMN AND CONTROL MODULE. THIS WAS VERY DISAPPOINTING AS I HAD 2 RECALLS COMPLETED IN 2014 FOR RECALLS 14152 AND 14116. THIS CAR IS ALMOST UNDRIVEABLE IN IT'S CURRENT CONDITION AND THERE ARE ONLY JUST OVER 110000 MILES ON IT!

THE STEERING WHEEL POPS WHILE TURNING. CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHY. TIRE ROF BROKE. SWAY BARS WERE SUPER LOOSE ALL FIXED BUT STEERING COLUMN STILL POPS AND LOCKS UP WHILE TURNING

HOW COULD THIS BE A CLOSED MATTER WHEN IT IS POWERED BY NHTSA RECALL ENVELOPE WITH SPECIAL COVERAGE #10183 IN IT. THEY SAID FOR ME TO CALL CUSTOMER SERVICE.

MY CAR LOOSES IT'S POWER STEERING RANDOMLY THEN IT REGAINS IT BACK. IT CAN BE STATIONARY OR MOVING. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL WHEN IT'S DOING EXACTLY WHAT THE RECALL STATES. GM # 14772, GM# 14119.

THE EVENING OF JANUARY.24TH,2017 I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY HEADING HOME AND WHEN I WENT TO SLOW DOWN BECAUSE A SEMI PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME I NOTICED THE CARS BEHIND ME WERE NOT REDUCING THEIR SPEED & THE CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST HIT ME BUT SWERVED TO AVOID IT THEN LAID ON THEIR HORN CUSSING ME BECAUSE MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING UNTIL I LET OFF THE BRAKES THEY CAME ON AND STAYED ON, SO I PULLED OVER PUT CAR IN PARK MY HUSBAND GOT OUT AND WAS CHECKING THINGS OUT AND SURE ENOUGH IT WAS LIKE THEY HAD A MIND OF THEIR OWN. SO I CALLED FOR MY FATHER IN LAW TO COME FOLLOW ME HOME SO THAT I WOULD NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND WHEN I WENT TO PUT THE CAR INTO GEAR MY GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT COME OUT OF PARK! SO I SHUT CAR OFF LET IT SET FOR 30 MINUTES STARTED BACK UP AND MY IGNITION GOT STUCK AND CONTINUED CRANKING OVER EVEN AFTER STARTED, AND NOW IT SEEMS TO BE A CONTINUOUS THING WITH MY CAR, MY STEERING IS MAKING A NOISE ALMOST LIKE MY WHEELS ARE GOING TO FALL OFF. I AM SCARED THIS IS A DEATH TRAP

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLES ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING FAILED RESULTING IN A NEARLY EMINENT COLLISION WITH ADJACENT TRAFFIC. MY FAMILY WAS WITHIN THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME AND I FELT GENUINE TERROR IN REGARD TO THEIR SAFETY. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO AVOID THE COLLISION AS THE STEERING BEGAN TO LOCK AND TIGHTEN UP, HOWEVER THROUGH SHEER POWER AND LUCK I MANAGE TO AVOID THE VEHICLES IN THE LANES ADJACENT TO ME. GM HAS HAD SPECIFIC NOTIFICATION OF THIS ISSUE THROUGH NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS BY CUSTOMERS AND HAS APPARENTLY TAKEN THE APPROACH THAT THEY WOULD RATHER RISK THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS THAN DO THE RIGHT THING AND CREATE A RECALL IN REGARD TO POWER STEERING TO MAKE THEIR VEHICLES SAFE FOR CONSUMERS. I HAVE CONTACTED GM TO NO AVAIL AS THEY TREAT RECALLS ON A VIN SPECIFIC BASIS TO AVOID PUBLIC LIABILITY AND HAVE CHOSEN TO ATTEMPT TO MAKE ME PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THEIR NEGLIGENCE AND WONTON DISREGARD FOR THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE STREET AND MAKING A LEFT TURN THE STEERING GAVE OUT THEN THE CENSOR CAME ON I ALMOST CRASHED! VERY SCARY. *TR

POWER STEERING MOTOR AND THE ELECTRONICAL CONTROL STABILIZER THE STEERING WHEEL IS HARD TO TURN BECAUSE IT MALFUNCTION AND I KNOW YOU'LL HAVE A RECALL FOR THAT I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND HE SAID THAT'S WHAT IT IS HE HOOKED THE COMPUTER UP TO IT HE EVEN TOLD ME THAT THERE IS A RECALL I SHOULD CONTACT GMC.

WHEN DRIVING ON CITY STREETS, HIGHWAYS AND THE INTERSTATE, MY POWER STEERING JUST GOES OUT. COMPLETELY STOPS WORKING. ALSO, SOMETIMES MY CRUISE CONTROL WON'T WORK BECAUSE MY BRAKE LIGHTS GO ON WITHOUT MY PRESSING THE BRAKE. WHEN I DO PRESS THE BRAKE THE LIGHTS GO OFF. (ALSO ON CITY STREETS, HIGHWAYS AND INTERSTATE). AND SOMETIMES I CANNOT MOVE THE SHIFTER FROM PARK WITHOUT A LOT OF WORK. LIKE PRESSING AND RELEASING THE BRAKE, WIGGLING OR TAPPING OF THE FUSES INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND IN THE TRUNK OR UNDER THE HOOD. CURRENTLY THEY SAY NO OPEN RECALLS ON THIS CAR, BUT SERVICE PROVIDERS SAY TO CHECK FURTHER. FOUND GM REBATE # N140115 FOR THE POWER STEERING ISSUE. APPARENTLY THERE MAY BE A STEERING SHAFT PROBLEM TOO.GM REBATE # 80317 OR # 13036 FOR THE BRAKE/SHIFTER PROBLEM. BUT PONTIAC SAYS "NOTHING CONFINED TO THIS VEHICLE". THESE ARE SAFETY ISSUES THAT I FEEL THEY SHOULD COVER. OBVIOUSLY THERE HAS BEEN THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES ALREADY AFFECTED. HOW CAN THEY SAY MINE DOESN'T PERTAIN? AT BEST THEY SAY TAKE IT IN AND IF SERVICE SAYS IT A MANUFACTURE DEFECT, THEY MAY HELP SOMEWHAT. BUT THE CAR IS NO LONGER COVERED BY THE WARRANTY SO THERE IS NOT MUCH THEY CAN DO. REALLY?? IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE, NOT COSMETIC OR FUEL SAVING ETC. *TR
