I WAS TRAVELING APPROX. 35 MPH GOING INTO THE CURVE AT THE TIME OF THE PROBLEM, DUE TO THE SUDDEN PROBLEM, I HAD CROSSED THE CENTER LINE OF THE ROAD DUE TO THE LOSS OF PROPER STEERING AND THE WET ROADS, EVEN THOUGH I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND TRIED TO TURN.  I HEARD A CHIME AND SAW THE TROUBLE INDICATOR SHOWING A PROBLEM WITH THE POWER STEERING. I FORTUNATELY DIDN'T HAVE ANY ON COMING TRAFFIC OR ANYONE BEHIND ME AT THE TIME OR THERE COULD HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS INJURY ACCIDENT. LIVING IN THE FOOT HILLS OF NC WITH MANY CURVES AND HILLS THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED  WITH THE POWER STEERING AND HHR VEHICLES. I WAS ONLY A MILE FROM HOME SO I DROVE THERE AND CHECKED TO SEE WHAT WAS HAPPENING. WHEN I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, THE POWER STEERING APPEARS TO HAVE CORRECTED ITSELF. CHECKING ON LINE FOR POSSIBLE REASONS FOR THE PROBLEM, I AM MADE AWARE THAT THE HHR'S AND OTHER  VEHICLES THAT USE THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING HAVE HAD SIMILAR ISSUES (EVEN RECALLS) FOR A WHILE NOW. I FIND IT UNACCEPTABLE NOT TO INCLUDE THE HHR VEHICLE SINCE THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL VEHICLE. AS AN INDIVIDUAL WHO WORKS IN THE SAFETY & HEALTH FIELD, I STRIVE TO KEEP INCIDENTS FROM OCCURRING THAT COULD LEAD TO FATALITIES, INJURIES AND OR PROPERTY DAMAGE AND FEEL THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE DONE TO PREVENT THE POTENTIAL LOSS OF LIFE FROM OCCURRING. I AM ALSO A CERTIFIED DEFENSIVE DRIVER INSTRUCTOR THROUGH THE NC SAFETY COUNCIL FOR CARS AND TRANSFER TRUCKS. RESPONDING TO VEHICLE ACCIDENTS IS PART OF MY JOB AND I MUST EMPHASIZE THAT THE ISSUE OF STEERING CONTROL ON ANY VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE DEBATED OR SAT UPON UNTIL LIVES ARE LOST.  *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2010","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"HHR","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]}]}
