2009 Saturn Aura Complaint Log

WHILE OPERATING VEHICLE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING STOPS FUNCTIONING AND MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER VEHICLE. PROBLEM HAPPENS WITH NO WARNING GET ERROR MESSAGE ON DASH BUT ISSUE HAS ALREADY OCCURED. THIS ISSUE SEEMS VERY COMMON AND IS VERY DANGEROUS. GM HAS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE BUT DOES NOT APPLY TO MY VEHICLE.

AT 64,467 MILES, WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 45 MPH JERKING OF STEERING WHEEL OCCURRED AND POWER STEERING WARNING CAME ON. WENT OFF AGAIN. KEEPS HAPPENING AS THO IT IS SHORTING OUT WHILE DRIVING BOTH AT LOW SPEEDS OF 20 MPH TO 55 MPH. AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE NOW. ELECTRICAL STEERING MOTOR IS SHORTING OUT. HAVE NOT YET HAD REPAIRED. FEAR THIS CAR WILL CAUSE SERIOUS HARM, INJURY UP TO AND POSSIBLY DEATH IF I CONTINUE TO DRIVE IT.

WITH ENGINE ON, STEERING WHEEL SLOWLY OSCILLATES. WHEN DRIVING, STEERING WHEEL WILL 'KICK' LEFT OR RIGHT SUDDENLY, AND I HAVE TO HOLD WHEEL TIGHTLY TO KEEP CAR IN STRAIGHT LINE. SEVERAL TIMES WHILE TURNING, I LOST POWER STEERING COMPLETELY AND I HAD TO USE FORCE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL.

WHEN IT'S HOT OUT AND I TURN A/C ON THE VEHICLE'S REDUCED ENGINE POWER POPS UP AND MY VEHICLE WILL ONLY GO 10 TO 20 MPH,IF I'M ON THE FREEWAY IT DROPS DOWN TO THAT MPH AND IS SO NOT SAFE I'VE TRIED FIXING CODE AFTER CODE AND STILL HAVE THE ISSUE,EVERYONE ONLINE CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT EITHER AFTER TAKING IT TO MULTIPLE GM DEALERSHIPS OR HAVING THERE OWN MECHANIC TRY TO FIX IT.WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK FOR 10 MIN.IT WILL KICK ON AND DO IT ALSO.

NOTICED A SEVERAL MONTHS AGO THAT IT WAS HARD TO TURN MY STEERING WHEEL WHEN I WOULD BACK OUT OF A DRIVEWAY OR PARKING LOT AND THEN IN THE LAST MONTH, THE STEERING COLUMN HAS STARTED TO CREAK EVERY TIME I TURN IT, EVEN WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD, BOTH CITY AND HIGHWAY. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THIS IS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR BECAUSE I'VE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH MY OLD VEHICLE (1998 OLDSMOBILE CUTLASS SUPREME). AS FAR AS I KNOW, NOTHING HAS HAPPENED TO CREATE THIS PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING WHEEL, BUT I STARTED TO NOTICE THAT IT WAS HARD TO TURN ON PAVEMENT A FEW MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT IT AND WAS DRIVING IT REGULARLY (I DIDN'T DRIVE IT A LOT AT FIRST). I ALSO NOTICED THAT IF MY VEHICLE WAS ON GRAVEL, IT WAS EASIER TO TURN, BUT ON PAVEMENT WAS HARDER TO TURN. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING IT A LOT MORE LATELY, WHICH IS WHEN I NOTICED IT GOING FROM BEING HARD TO TURN WHILE BACKING OUT TO A CREAKING NOISE BEING MADE WHILE TURNING ON THE ROAD.

SATURN AURA 2009 THE THIRD LIGHT STICKS WHILE DRIVING. THE SEAT BELT LIGHT STAYS ON WITH THE BELT ENGAGED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 SATURN AURA. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE ELECTRONIC LOCKS WOULD LOCK AND UNLOCK WITHOUT BEING ENGAGED BY THE CONTACT. THE LOCK BUTTONS ALSO FAILED TO WORK ON THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES OF THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER HAD NOT BEEN CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO NHTSA TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 65-70 MILES PER HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE TACHOMETER WENT FROM 2300 RPM TO 5000 RPM AND WOULD DO THIS REPEATEDLY FROM TIME TO TIME A SERVICE CODE STATING SERVICE ESC WOULD APPEAR EACH TIME IT OCCURRED IT WOULD HAPPEN AFTER DRIVING FOR A NUMBER OF HOURS 4 HOURS OR MORE AT THE SPEEDS STATED PREVIOUSLY, HAVE TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC BUT WAS UNABLE TO GET THE CAR TO REPEAT THE MALFUNCTION NO CODES APPEARED AND NO CHARGE FOR THE TROUBLE SHOOTING.

EVERY SO OFTEN AS THE CAR IS IN MOTION IF ON THE MAIN ROADS OR THE FREEWAY I GET A WARNING REGARDING THE 'TRACTION CONTROL' AND ESC WARNING OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, AND THE BREAK LIGHTS ARE LIGHT UP WHEN I'M NOT EVEN PUSHING ON THE BREAK PEDALS. AND SOME TIMES WHEN THE WARNING LIGHTS COME ON, I'LL LOSE SOME SPEED AND AGAIN WOULD HAVE TO ACCELERATE WHENEVER I'M DRIVING JUST TO STAY AT THE SPEED LIMIT. IT GETS VERY ANNOYING WHEN IT JUST KEEPS HAPPENING. PLEASE HELP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 SATURN AURA. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS LISTED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V153000 (STEERING). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE STEERING MOTOR FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

2009 SATURN AURA STATIONARY SHOWS MESSAGES "SERVICE TRACTION, ESC OFF, SERVICE ESC" CONSTANTLY ON THE GAUGE CLUSTER. ALONGSIDE THE MESSAGES THE ABS LIGHT AND THE ESC OFF ICON IS CONSTANTLY ON IN THE GAUGE CLUSTER. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN THE MESSAGE "PWR STR" REFERRING TO POWER STEERING SHOWED ON THE GAUGE CLUSTER THEN DISAPPEARS. UPON RESEARCHING THESE ISSUES, I HAVE FOUND THAT NHTSA AND GM HAVE ISSUED RECALLS AND TSBS REGARDING THESE ISSUES, HOWEVER THE VIN FOR MY VEHICLE DOES NOT SHOW ITS UNDER RECALL. I SUSPECT THIS MAY BE THE CASE OF VINS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL SYSTEM. NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V153000, 14E044000, 14V153000, 14V252000, I HAVE CONTACTED GM AND WAS TOLD MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER RECALL AND MUST BE TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTICS UNDER CASE NUMBER 8-440138641. I WILL TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR THE VEHICLE TO BE DIAGNOSED, HOWEVER IN THE CASE THE VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THE ESC AND POWER STEERING. I WANT NHTSA TO HAVE A RECORD ON FILE OF THESE ISSUES AS A PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE.

WHEN TURNING LEFT STEERING BECOMES STUCK IN THE TURNING POSITION AND IS ALMOST LIKE A JERKING AND NOT RETURNING TO A STRAIGHT POSITION. WHILE MAKING A LEFT FROM A LEFT TURN SIGNAL ON A CITY STREET.

EXPERIENCED COMPLETE LOSS OF REVERSE GEAR AND FORWARD GEARS ARE SLIPPING, AND OR NOT ENGAGING SO THAT ENGINE RPMS ARE WELL ABOVE NORMAL BEFORE LUNGING INTO HIGHER GEAR AND/OR NOT SHIFTING AT ALL. DIFFICULT TO REACH SPEEDS ABOVE 35 MPH. PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED TWO DAYS PRIOR AND AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT, SEEMED TO RETURN TO NORMAL OPERATION. AFTER PARKING IN ANGLE PARKING SPOT WITH NOSE FORWARD, THE CAR WOULD NOT REVERSE OUT OF PARKING SPOT. I HAD ASSISTANCE TOWING AURA OUT OF PARKING SPOT, AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE FORWARD AT LOW SPEED TO TRANSMISSION SHOP. DIAGNOSIS WAS FAILURE OF UPPER AND REVERSE GEARS REQUIRED TRANSMISSION REBUILD WITH SUSPECTED FAILURE OF WAVE PLATE. OBTAINED INFORMATION ON GM SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT #14404 - TRANSMISSION CLUTCH WAVE PLATE (MAR 3, 2015) WHICH EXTENDED WARRANTY TO 10 YRS/120,000 MI. MY 09 SATURN AURA IS WITHIN 10 YR PERIOD HAVING PURCHASED IN JANUARY 2010, AND HAS APPROX 95K MILES. I CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE AND WAS TOLD THAT MY SATURN AURA IS NOT COVERED BASED ON THE FACT THAT ACCORDING TO MY VIN, I HAVE A MH8 6-SPD TRANSMISSION, AND THE WARRANTY APPLIES ONLY TO "OTHER" 6-SPD TRANSMISSIONS . . . EVEN THOUGH THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE IS FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE IDENTIFIED IN THE SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT, OR SPECIFICALLY THAT THE 6 SPEED FWD AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION MAY EXPERIENCE A CRACKED OR FRACTURED WAVE PLATE, RESULTING IN A LOSS OF 3RD, 5TH, AND REVERSE GEARS.

TRANSMISSION (6T40) SUDDENLY FAILED WHILE DRIVING. STOPPED SHIFTING ABOVE 2ND GEAR (25 MPH). ONCE I PULLED OUT OF THE HIGHWAY AND PARKED, I COULD NOT REVERSE. LEFT ME STRANDED. GM HAS A RECALL FOR SIMILAR 6T70 TRANSMISSION, BUT REFUSES TO COVER MINE EVEN THOUGH 6T40 HAS SAME PROBLEMS AS 6T70.

THE PLASTIC CASING ON THE SHIFTER CABLE HAS BROKEN AND THE SPRAG ON THE AT TRANSMISSION IS BAD.... OR SO I HAVE BEEN TOLD. IT IS IN THE DRIVEWAY NOW WITH THE ABC, BRAKE, TRACTION CONTROL AND ESC LIGHTS LIT AS WELL AS ERROR CODES P0449 & P2101. I HAVE TEMP REPAIRED THE SHIFTER CABLE AND IT WILL SHIFT THROUGH THE GEARS BUT WILL NOT GO INTO GEAR. I WAS DRIVING DOWN I-635 WHEN IT STOPPED GOING INTO GEAR.

WHEN I AM TRAVELLING AT SLOW SPEEDS THE POWER STEERING OFTEN DOESN'T WORK. THIS HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO GET INTO A FEW ACCIDENTS. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS. IT SEEMS THAT A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR MY VEHICLE FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT WHEN I PUT IN MY VIN IT SAYS THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS.

180,000 MI POWER STEERING WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED BRIEFLY DURING STRAIGHT HIGHWAY DRIVING. CONSULTED GM DEALER, SAID FIX WOULD TAKE A WHILE DUE TO PARTS SHORTAGE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 SATURN AURA. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, IT FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TABS FOR THE TRANSMISSION WERE FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MECHANIC INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CALL THE MANUFACTURER. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V460000 (POWER TRAIN). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,000.

FAILURE AT APPROXIMATELY 125000 MILES. THE POWER STEERING INTERMITTENTLY FAILS. DRIVING AT VARYING SPEEDS THE ESC FAIL LIGHT COMES ON AND GIVES A WARNING MESSAGE OF POWER STEERING FAILURE. IT REQUIRES THE CAR TO BE SHUTDOWN AND RESTARTED.

POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING AT 40MPH

TRACTION CONTROL BUTTON (TRIANGLE ON DASH) WILL DISPLAY THEN GAUGES START FLICKERING BACK AND FOURTH LIKE AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE AND THEN ON DISPLAY IT SAYS SERVICE ESC AND CAR WILL NOT SHIFT INTO GEARS AND YOU CANNOT STEER OR CONTROL VEHICLE PROPERLY WITH THESE ISSUES GOING ON. I ENTERED MY VIN BECAUSE THERE ARE RECALLS FOR THESE ISSUES BUT IT SAYS MY VIN WAS NOT RECALLED. ONCE CAR IS SHUT OFF IT WILL RESET ITSELF I GUESS BUT IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES NOW.

THE POWER STEERING KEEPS GOING IN AND OUT WHILE I AM DRIVING THE CAR, I BELIEVE IT IS ELECTRIC, WHEN I MAKE A TURN SOMETIMES IT GOES OUT THEN THE TURN BECOMES HARD, THEN COMES BACK IN TO MAKE THE TURN EASY

VIBRATION OF MY STEERING WHEEL. MY ELECTRIC POWER STEERING IS FAILING. THE SERVICE ESC AND POWER STEERING FAILURE MESSAGES SUDDENLY ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH BOARD. THE FAILURE OCCURS WHEN I TRY STARTING MY CAR. THE ESC LIGHT ILLUMINATES AND LOCKS UP. I TRIED TURNING IT ON AND OFF MULTIPLE TIMES AND IT STILL LOCKS UP.

I CAN BE DRIVING DOWN ROAD MY STEERING WHEEL START JERKING THEN IT QUITS BUT IT WILL DO IT AGAIN

WHEN GOING AROUND CURVES THE ESC ACTIVE MESSAGE COMES ON, AND WHEN THIS HAPPENS IT TRIES TO STRAIGHTEN MY WHEEL AS I'M STILL GOING AROUND THE CURVE.

STEERING WHEEL SHAKES BACK AND FORTH AT IDLE.

THE ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING ASSIST WILL INTERMITTENTLY QUIT WORKING WITHOUT WARNING. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE TURNING IT HAS STOPPED WORKING CAUSING THE DRIVER TO VEER INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT STEER THE CAR BACK INTO THEIR LANE. EVEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT NORMAL SPEEDS THE STEERING HAS JUST WUIT CAUSING THE DRIVER TO STOP AND TURN THE CAR OFF TO RESET THE ELECTRONICS. THIS CONDITION IS THE SAME ISSUE THEY HAD ON PREVIOUS YEARS OF THE SAME VEHICLE SO THEY OBVIOUSLY DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM, BUT JUST PUT A BAND AIDE ON THE ISSUE TO GET IT TO PASS INSPECTION. THIS CAR IS A DEATH TRAP UNLESS YOU ARE USED TO DRIVING A TANK WITHOUT POWER STEERING!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 SATURN AURA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED FOR THE EPS, AND THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND WAS DIFFICULT TO TURN EACH TIME THE FAILURE OCCURRED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER ISSUED TWO EPS RECALLS, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER ALSO ISSUED 11 TSBS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I EXPERIENCED A SUDDEN LOSS OF ELECTRIC POWER STEERING ASSIST THAT WHILE DRIVING. THESE HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND IS STARTING TO OCCUR MORE FREQUENTLY. I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN RESTART IN ORDER FOR THE POWER STEERING TO WORK. THE CONSMER REFERENCED RECALL 14V153000, STATING THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE AS DOCUMENTED. *JS *JS

UPON MAKING A TURN ON A BUSY STREET MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND I ALMOST HIT THE CURB. THIS INCIDENT HURT MY WRIST AND BACK STRUGGLING WITH THE STEERING.

UPON MAKING A TURN ONTO A BUSY STREET THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND I ALMOST HIT THE CURB. I FELT PAIN IN MY BACK AND WRIST TRYING TO STEER THE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 SATURN AURA. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL WARNING INDICATOR DISPLAYED PRIOR TO THE FAILURE.

I BOUGHT 2009 SATURN AURA BRAND NEW AND IT ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES AND NOW I HAVE TRANSMISSION ISSUES . CALLED THE 800 NUMBER TO SATURN AND THEY GAVE ME A VOUCHER SO I COULD TAKE IT TO A CHEVROLET DEALER SO I DID THE CAR CHECKED OUT AND IT CAME UP WITH A CODE PO601 TRANS ELECTRO CONTROL MODULE THEY SAID I NEED A TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY WORK AND FLUSH . APRIL 2009 THEY CAME OUT WITH A TSB SEPT 7 2009 AND IN MAY THEY CAME OUT WITH ANOTHER TSB PIP-4327A. IN AUGUST OF 2009 I HAD BOUGHT MY SATURN AND I GUESS IT HAD TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS IF I WOULD OF KNOWN THIS ! I WOULDN'T OF BOUGHT THE SATURN . I BOUGHT MY FIRST 1991 SATURN SL2 AND IT GAVE ME 200,000 MILES. I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A FACTORY WARRANTY ON MY SATURN.

NO POWER STEERING WHEN STARTING THE CAR

MY POWER STEERING KEEPS LOCKING UP AND THE LIGHT ON THE DASH BOARD COMES ON. IT HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES NOW WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, THE HIGHWAY WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN EXITING IT WAS HARD TO TURN AND THE 3RD TIME WHEN I STARTED THE CAR THE LIGHT LIT UP ON THE DASHBOARD. I DO NOT HAVE A PHOTO BUT I DID STOP AT AN AUTO ZONE AND HAVE THE CODE READ. I HAVEN'T BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT YET, BUT AM AFRAID IT WILL HAPPEN.

WHILE DRIVING THE SERVICE ESC & POWER STEERING WARNING CAME ON. AT THIS POINT THE POWER STEERING STOPPED FUNCTIONING AND STEERING BECAME VERY DIFFICULT ESPECIALLY AT LOWER SPEEDS. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE FOR THIS MODEL, BUT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT SHOWING UP AS ONE OF THE VEHICLES RECALLED EVEN THOUGH IT APPEARS TO HAVE THE PROBLEM. GM OBVIOUSLY HAS MORE DEFECTIVE PARTS INSTALLED ON ADDITIONAL VIN'S. THIS CAN BE A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM DEPENDING ON WHEN IT OCCURS. THE PROBLEM RESETS WHEN YOU TURN OFF THE CAR AND RESTART IT, BUT IT HAS NOW HAPPENED 4 TIMES WHILE DRIVING SINCE THE INITIAL OCCURRENCE.

INTERMITTENTLY ESC POWER STEERING WILL POP UP IN DISPLAY, POWER STEERING WILL QUIT WORKING AND ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN, DEALER STATES NO RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET, THE TRACTION LIGHT INDICATOR LIT UP AND THE DASHBOARD FLASHED 'ESC OFF' AND 'TRACTION OFF' AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER MY CAR INTO A PARKING LOT AND OUT OF THE HEAVY FLOW OF TRAFFIC.

VEHICLE IS HARD TO STEER WHILE DRIVING, THEN ESC POWER STEERING OFF APPEAR ON THE DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER ON DASH.

WITHOUT WARNING THE STEERING AND THE ESC FAILED, WHEN YOU START THE CAR THE WARNINGS FLASH THAT THAT ARE OFF, ON THE RARE OCCASION THAT THEY TURN ON THEY TURN OFF WHILE THE CAR IS DRIVING, THE CAR LOSES ALL STEERING ASSISTANCE. WHEN THEY CONTROLS ARE ACTIVE THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES UNCONTROLLABLY

WHILE DRIVING THE STEERING WHEEL JUST LOCKED UP IT WAS VERY VERY HARD TO TURN THE WHEEL.

WHILE DRIVING THE POWER STEERING STOPPED FUNCTIONING AND STEERING BECAME VERY DIFFICULT ESPECIALLY AT LOWER SPEEDS. FOR SOME REASON MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT SHOWING UP AS ONE OF THE VEHICLES RECALLED EVEN THOUGH IT HAS THE DEFECTIVE EQUIPMENT INSTALLED IN IT. THE WHOLE DESIGN OF AN ELECTRONIC MOTOR INSTEAD OF A HYDRAULIC PUMP WITH FLUID SEEMS LIKE AN INEFFECTIVE DESIGN NO WONDER IT IS FAILING AND IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. GM REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE ANY FAULT IN THIS AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY MY VEHICLE IS NOT ONE OF THE ONES THAT IS LISTED BY ITS VIN NUMBER

WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY POWER STEERING WENT OUT. EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL CAR. I FOUND THAT AFTER THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF, THE STEERING WORKS AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS ALL OF THE TIME AND IS VERY SCARY. I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE. ALSO STEERING WHEEL GOES BACK AND FORTH WHEN I AM IN PARK AND NOT TOUCHING IT. STEERING FEELS LOOSE.

WHILE DRIVING BACK FROM WORK TODAY I GOT THIS MESSAGE // POWER STEERING SERVICE ESC// MESSAGE AFTER PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE WHILE TRYING TO TURN.THE STEERING BECAME UNCONTROLLABLE AFTERWARDS. AFTER TURNING IGNITION OFF AND BACK ON THE ERROR MESSAGE WENT AWAY AND THINGS WENT BACK TO NORMAL.

DRIVING THE CAR ANYWHERE MY CAR WOULD DRIVE GOOD THEN SOMETIMES LIGHTS START FLASHING SERVICE ESC, POWER STEERING, LOW FUEL AND THE GAUGES STARTS GOING WILD ON THE DASHBOARD, AND MY CAR WOULD START SKIPPING IF I DON'T PULL OVER OFF THE ROAD RIGHT AWAY. THIS IS SO DANGEROUS TO BE ON THE HIGHWAY PEOPLE ARE DRIVING FAST AND CRAZY AND WHEN YOUR CAR SLOWS DOWN ON ITS OWN IT COULD CAUSE A WRECK. I HAVE CHILDREN AND IT'S SCARES ME BECAUSE I DON'T NEVER KNOW WHEN THE CAR WOULD ACT UP. IT SEEMS TO BE A REALLY BAD ISSUE WITH THESE CARS I'M HEARING WOULD'VE BEEN NICE TO KNOW THIS BEFORE I BOUGHT THE CAR. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE FOR A CAR TO ACT THIS HIS OUT OF NOWHERE. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE PEOPLE I BOUGHT MY CAR FROM AND IT NEVER ACTS WHEN I TAKE IT TO THEM PUT I'VE SHOULD THEM VIDEOS THAT I'VE TAKEN OF WHAT IT'S GOIN, SO THEY ARE NOT TRYING TO LOOK DEEPLY FOR THE PROBLEM. AND I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED THIS IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I HAVE TO GET ME AND MY CHILDREN AROUND & THE CAR IS IN GOOD CONDITIONING BESIDES WHAT'S GOIN ON WITH THE ELECTRICAL PART. I DON'T KNOW WHAT ALL CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS BUT HOPEFULLY SOMEBODY CAN LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM WITH THIS TYPE OF CAR. THANK YOU

TALARA RECALL ' I TURNED MY CAR ON AND IT KEPT KILLING FORWARD IT SAID POWER STEERING STABILITY ESC ,ESC OFF, AND THEN ENGINE POWER REDUCED IT KEPT ACCELERATING BY IT SELF I THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERY SO I BOAUGHT A NEW ONE BUT NOT EVEN WHEN THEY SWITCHED IT OUT WOULD IT STOP DOING THAT IT KEPT JULTING

WHILE DRIVING (TWICE) ON A CITY STREET SUDDENLY THE SERVICE ESC, POWER STEERING NOTIFICATION LIGHT COMES ON AND I DO NOT HAVE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING. I AM ABLE TO TURN WITH DIFFICULTY TO SHOULDER OF ROAD. ONCE I TURN OFF THE CAR AND BACK ON, LIGHTS GO OFF AND ELECTRIC POWER STEERING IS RESTORED.

WHEN I WAS GETTING OFF THE INTERSTATE I LOSE CONTROL OF MY POWER STEERING AND THE SERVICE ESC POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON AND I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER INTO A GAS STATION I TURNED THE CAR OFF TURNED IT BACK ON AND THE POWER STEERING STARTED WORKING JUST FINE AGAIN.

DRIVING AND MY BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON. I STOP AND THEY GO OFF. AS I'M DRIVING I FEEL RESISTANCE LIKE MY BRAKES ARE BEING PUSHES

WHILE DRIVING AT 25 MPH THE POWER STEERING HAS GONE OUT QUITE A FEW TIMES, RESTARTING THE CAR TURNS THE POWER STEERING BACK ON. WHILE DRIVING ANY ROAD, INCLUDING 70MPH HIGHWAYS, THE CAR WILL JOLT AND THE SERVICE ESC ALERT WILL GO OFF. IT'S ACTUALLY GETTING WORSE.
