2008 Pontiac G6 electronic steering shakes left and right during start up and also when driving at no specific road speed, and sometimes locks up left or right after making normal correction to driving conditions. Occurs randomly taken to dealership 3 times. Two times no problem noted by dealership, and 1 time dtc P0460-4B logged and repairing technician attempted to recalibrate steering sensors. Recalibration failed and steering column was replaced. Vehicle returned to owner and continues to still have same problems with steering shaking and locking up. Vehicle is currently at dealership.

The last couple of months I noticed a "klunking" sound somewhere in the steering assembly of my 2008 Pontiac G6. The dealer replaced the steering shaft today (under warranty) without question. With some research online I see this is a fairly common complaint with regard to this vehicle. Thankfully, so far I've only been inconvenienced, not injured. Please investigate this matter to prevent inconvenience at best, and injury at worst to other G6 owners, and encourage Pontiac to come forward and do a recall regarding this matter. Thank you!

I have noticed that my steering wheel will lock uncontrollably and intermittently. It has not caused an accident yet, but it does has a binding and rocking motion in the steering wheel. I have to cut the engine off and reset the power steering after its displayed on the instrument panel. GM has done nothing and there is no recall as of the date of this posting to replace or fix the discrepancy. I am concerned that it may cause an unfortunate accident that could cause a fatality if this is not corrected and I pray that it does not happen. I feel for the individuals that have had an accident so far and I hope that they take there complaints to GM and make them pay for it. Just to set the record my vehicle has approx 49535 miles on it and this has happened more than 30 times with it getting worse. I surely can't afford to have it fix.

Vehicle type is 2006 Pontiac G6. For about 3 months upon starting the car in the morning the steering wheel is locked - there is no power steering what so ever. After a few seconds the steering wheel unlocks. The last few weeks have been more concerning. It seemed like when a left turn was made the car "dings" and the message "power steering" comes up on the radio. Now 2 days in a row we were traveling straight and received the "power steering message". the car has never lost power steering while driving but I am very concerned upon reading other consumer comments. My car was purchased new and has 12K miles on it. The car was taken to dealership and was told they replaced "U" joint ( I believe) since they said it was "seizing". receipt states intermediate shaft replaced. Still having problem -Pontiac dealership is at a loss.

There is a clunking in the front end when you turn the steering wheel. I brought to dealer on 11/03/08 and they determined that the clunking noise was coming from the intermediate shaft. Their solution was to lubricate the shaft as the first step to resolving the problem. The clunking noise has been reduced dramatically, but I know I will be bringing this vehicle back in for this same problem. I have brought a previous car, 2006 G-6, in to the dealer for the same problem on 10/24/08 and it was recommended that the steering rack be replaced at a cost of $ $503.15. This was not covered under warranty because the car was 3,000 miles over the warranty coverage. I have an appointment for my 3rd Pontiac G-6 on 11/07/08. It is just amazing that I have three of these vehicles, and they all seem to have the same problem. All that I'm looking for is to have this problem taken care of by the manufacturer at no charge, because I believe this is a factory defect.

2008 Pontiac G6 has issues with possible defects. The consumer stated while driving 40 mph, the vehicle wandered. At 60 mph, the wandering increased and constant corrections had to be made to prevent an accident. The consumer also stated the brake pedal was too high and too far from the gas pedal. The consumer stated his foot did not come to rest evenly on the brake pedal, rather his foot came to rest unevenly on the pedal. The steering was inadequate. When the ratio between the steering wheel and the front driving suspension was too large, so at times of an emergency when a quick turn of the wheel is necessary to avoid a collision, such response is not available due to the defective construction of the vehicle. The response to the steering wheel was sluggish. The steering wheel did not turn with ease, but required excessive turning and excessive strength. The sunvisor extended too far down which impaired the consumers visibility.

My daughter was driving a 2007 Pontiac G-6. she was going around a curve entering the express way and the car did not respond to her turning the wheel therefore the car went into the ditch. The air bags did not deploy. Consiquently she fractured her back. September 2007 in November 2007 my son was driving a 2008 Pontiac G-6. he was going around a curve the car did not respond. The car rolled over hit a tree and killed my son. The air bags did not go off.

My power steering went out while driving down the interstate entering an exit ramp at 50 mph. This is the first and only time this has happened. I've now parked my vehicle and haven't been driving it. I have two children under age 4 and cannot allow them to be in that death trap. After I pulled over to a safe area, I turned the ignition off and about 10 min later on again. After that, my steering was fine. I've also had the rack and pinion replaced 3 times for a click sound that is made anytime I turn to the left or right. I've been told it could be the steering links or even the tie rods and struts. It still makes that sound. Either way, all three times a certified GM mechanic replaced the rack and pinion because they were sure that's what caused the click and all my front end issues. When I had the first rack and pinion replaced, the water pump also needed to be replaced. This car is only two years old. I had the same body shop work on the vehicle each time something was replaced. I've feel jipped. I pay almost 400 a month for a car that could kill me! a definite recall needs to be done before someone kills someone else or their children die or themselves. I can't believe this thing has been under investigation for so long and nothing has been done. It's absurd.
