Takata recall, I have a 2007 Pontiac G6 base model. It has 110,756 miles and it breaking down badly. The gear shift, transmission and steering wheel control all started to mess up around the same time. My friends father had the same exact car a few years ago and said that they have a transmission problem and to call the dealership and/or the manufacturer to find a solution to my problem.

I have replaced the alternator, the electric power steering assist motor and air filter on multiple occasions and, after doing some research, have found that my car is experiencing every issue th's to have seen in previous GM vehicle safety recalls. Unfortunately, my VIN number seems to be one of those that has not been identified has having had those issues although it currently is experiencing them. I want to lodge a complaint that the VIN number search tool is not accurate enough to determine the validity of a claim. I say this because even on the NHTSA website, the tool says that not all VIN numbers that are experiencing issues with a recall have actually been associated to any recalls. As there do exist current recalls for all 07 Pontiac G6 models, there are no recalls related to my specific VIN number. But, all of the recalls directly mention every issues that my car is currently experiencing. Including, the transmission not properly shifting due to a madness or break in the shift cable, the power steering motor suddenly dying, the car experiencing a sudden loss of power, etc. Each of these issues is directly mentioned in a recall for G6 models in general, but for some reason, not for my car, specifically?

Sudden lose of power steering. After car starts up, power steering is present, however after vehicle is moving, sudden lose of the power steering occurs and notifications on dashboard. GM states this is not related to NHTSA bulletin 15V064000, however it is for the same exact make, model, year, and part that is affected. The GM recall number is 14772. This is a major safety concern as I can no longer rely on the vehicle to drive as expected without knowing when the power steering will be lost. Serious potential of crash as turning may not be available while in motion. It occurs for every power up of the vehicle. Please have GM investigate that more 2006-2007 Pontiac G6 vehicles with that same torque sensor be impacted by recall 14722.

My 2007 Pontiac G6 has had the power steering going out while driving. The warning light comes on. If I turn the car off, the power steering usually comes back on when I restart the car. The last 2 twos, it goes back off almost immediately and I have no power steering. It is very hard to control the turning of the car.

The last year my passenger airbag light and seatbelt like goes on and off when no one is sitting in that seat. My power steering light is going off now and power steering has gone out multiple times.

When I turn my steering wheel several things happen, a click sound going clockwise, and I hear squeaky or whining sound when I turn either way. I hear a grinding sound coming from the front tires. My signal doesn't shut off after I complete a turn.

- Pine Bluff, AR, USA

Power steering message pops up and it makes it very hard to turn. This may happen when you crank the vehicle or will happen while driving the vehicle. It makes it pull to the side. It is very dangerous. Also, my car has a problem with the gas(fuel pump) the fuel pump leaks fast onto the gas tank. That is a fire hazard. It is also horrible on my gas mileage. There needs to be a recall and if there is one already or needs to be expanded. I've had nothing but trouble out of this vehicle. And spent too much money on it. There something wrong with the electric box and it throws codes for multiple problems, and when those problems are fixed it doesn't help. It's costing people money for nothing.

My steering wheel suddenly gets hard to move. It happens when im on the freeway going 60+ mph and my power steering pump just completely goves out. I can pull over and turn my car off and back on and it stops doing it til I get back up to the speed limit. I was told by a repair shop that my power steering was covered by a GM recall, and I cant get anyone to find the recall information. My concern is why is it just a few makes recalled if the entire year of that make and model are faulty.

- Kansas City, MO, USA

I was driving down the highway at about 70mph, all of a sudden the car beeped, but I didn't see any warning lights on the dashboard. Immediately I noticed that the steering wheel had locked and was extremely difficult to turn. I was able to tilt it just enough to change lanes, but I was afraid I would be unable to make any sharper turn than that. I exited the highway and as I suspected, it was extremely difficult to turn the wheel. If this had happened right before a steep curve in the road and I would not have had time to slow down and I would have run right off the road, unable to turn the wheel! I see that this has happened to other peoples' G6 just in the last few days. Please fix our power steering! engine still turns on and off, nothing wrong with the way it drives, just the steering wheel is stuck.
