2005 Malibu maxx hydraulic seat malfunctioned and the back seat unlocked. ***** the drivers seat would not stay in the upright position. Due to the misalignment of the seat, the consumer experienced recurring right knee joint pain and inflammation, which required emergency medial care and ultimately surgery. The consumer believed the malfunction of the seat is what caused her knee injury. The intermediate steering shaft was replaced.

Power steering failed 2 times in last 3 days and both times it has happened I was stopped. I had no power assist and it takes a lot of effort to move the wheel in any direction. After I did move the wheel several times I regained power steering and was able to proceed on my way. I think this problem should be upgraded to a recall asap!
