“When I start my car my steering wheel dances vibrates. When I'm driving 30 mph it will pull me to the right side of the road and be hard to steer. It does this a lot it scares me I'm disabled and have a hard time driving.”

“STEERING WHEEL LOCKS WITHOUT WARNING. I'VE REPLACED POWER STEERING 2 YEARS AGO AND VEHICLE CONTINUES TO LOCK WHILE DRIVING MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO CONTROL VEHICLE.”

“I HAVE A 2007 MALIBU. AFTER CHANGE BATTERY, THE POWER STEERING IS GONE, "POWER STEERING" APPEARS ON RADIO PANEL. I SEARCH THE REALLY. THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2007 MALIBU, BUT MY CAR IS NOT IN THE LIST WHEN CHECK THE VIN”

“GAUGES WILL QUIT WORKING, LOW FUEL AND POWER STEERING POPS UP ON RADIO, THEFT DETERRENT LIGHT COMES ON, CRUISE CONTROL SHUTS OFF, SAYS ERROR ON ODOMETER. IT WILL DO IT WHEN DRIVING AND STATIONARY. ALSO WHEN IT DOES DO THIS YOU CAN FEEL THE ENGINE INTERMITTENTLY LOSE POWER”
