Since GM announced the recall of 1.3 million vehicles to correct Power Steering Assist. The affected models are: 2005 – 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt, 2007 – 2010 Pontiac G5, 2005 – 2006 Pontiac Pursuit (Canada), 2005 – 2006 Pontiac G4 (Mexico). Recalls is necessary to replace a motor in the power steering system. GM told the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration about the voluntary recall on Monday after concluding an investigation that began in 2009. NHTSA opened an investigation Jan. 27 into approximately 905,000 Cobalt models in the United States after receiving more than 1,100 complaints of loss of power steering assist, 14 crashes and one injury. “After our in-depth investigation, we found that this is a condition that takes time to develop. It tends to occur in older models out of warranty,” said Jamie Hresko,
GM Vice President of Quality. “Recalling these vehicles is the right thing to do for our customers’ peace of mind. “While greater steering effort under 15 mph may be required, if the customer experiences loss of power steering assist, it is important to note that the vehicle can still be safely controlled because the customer can still steer the vehicle,” Hresko said. “When the condition occurs, both a chime will sound and a ‘Power Steering’ message will be displayed. “
