WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY POWER STEERING KICKED OFF AND 3 WARNINGS CAME ACROSS MY DASH "POWER STEERING, SERVICE ESC AND ESC OFF" I WAS CLOSE TO A STOP SIGN AND ONCE THERE I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND BACK ON THE ALARM WENT AWAY AND MY POWER STEERING WAS ONCE AGAIN WORKING. NOT ONLY DOES MY POWER STEERING KICK OFF ALL THE TIME NOW BUT MY STEERING WHEEL CONSTANTLY JERKS TO THE LEFT, EVEN WHILE THE CAR IS STOPPED. I CONSTANTLY HAVE TO KEEP IT FROM GOING INTO THE NEXT LANE. YOU HAVE NO WARNING WHEN YOUR POWER STEERING IS GOING TO KICK OFF. ITS VERY…

FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS NOW THE POWER STEERING MESSAGE HAS BEEN SHOWING UP ON THE DIC AND THE VEHICLES STEERING WHEEL HAS HAD A BAD SHAKE TO IT WHILE DRIVING AT JUST ABOUT ALL SPEEDS. AT LEAST ONCE OR TWICE A DAY UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE THERE IS NO POWER STEERING AND I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART THE VEHICLE TO REGAIN POWER STEERING. IT HAS ALSO LOST POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING 3 TIMES NOW IN THE PAST 2 WEEKS WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE IT IS GETTING WORSE AND IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I'VE DONE ENOUGH RESEARCH AND NOTICED THERE IS A…

I WAS DRIVING AROUND 55 MPH WHEN I HEARD A DINGING NOISE AND LOST POWER STEERING. POWER STEERING, SERVICE ESC, ESC OFF WERE THE MESSAGES THAT DISPLAYED. GOT MY CAR HOME, TURNED IT OFF AND BACK ON. WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON THE POWER STEERING HAD RETURNED. I THOUGHT IT WAS A ONE-TIME OCCURRENCE BUT IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE CAR FOR MORE THAN 10 MINUTES. CALLED GM AND THEY SAID IT NEEDED TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC TEST BEFORE THEY WOULD COMMENT. SERVICE REP I TALKED TO CLAIMED THAT IT WAS UNLIKELY IT WAS RELATED TO THE RECALL IN EARLIER G6 …

THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL TURN AND STAY ON AS THE CAR IS STARTED FROM COLD OR WARM ENGINE. WHILE DRIVING THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL STAY ON AND DIE AS I PRESS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. MANY CARS HAVE NEARLY REAR ENDED ME AND I'VE RECEIVED MANY COMMENTS FROM PEOPLE DRIVING AROUND ME STATING THE SAME THING I SEE, BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON TILL I HIT THE BRAKES. WHICH CONFUSES THEM AND THEY ALWAYS HAVE TO SCREECH THEY'RE TIRES TO STOP FROM IMPACT (10 INCIDENTS). THIS FAULTY INCIDENT HAPPENED RIGHT BEFORE MY WARRANTY EXPIRES.

A FEW MONTHS AGO I STARTED SMELLING FUEL FROM MY PARKED VEHICLE. AS TIME HAS GONE ON IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE, AND MY CAR IS BEGINNING TO LOSE POWER AND FAIL TO RUN PROPERLY. I HAVE BEEN INFORMED BY A MECHANIC THAT THE SMELL IS COMING FROM A SMALL FUEL LEAK COMING FROM A CONNECTOR ON THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY. THIS ISSUE SEEMS TO BE IDENTICAL TO THE ISSUE DESCRIBED IN RECALL #09V419000. I HAVE HEARD FROM OTHER G6 OWNERS AND THEY SEEM TO HAVE THIS ISSUE AS WELL.

MY CAR STARTED SMELLING OF GAS. ANOTHER MECHANIC NOTICED A SLOW GAS LEAK. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT'S THE FUEL PUMP. I SEE THAT A RECALL HAD BEEN DONE ON EARLIER YEARS OF MY MODEL BUT NOT THE 2010. GIVEN THAT THERE HAS BEEN NO IMPACT TO THE VEHICLE, IT APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT IN THE CAR.
