THE EVENT CAUSED DISTRESS AS I HAD MY FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE. I HAD TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC USING GREAT EFFORT IN ORDER TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND THEN TURNED IT ON AND THE ERROR WENT AWAY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO GET CHECKED AT A LOCAL GENERAL MOTORS DEALERSHIP AND I WAS TOLD ABOUT THE RECALL AFFECTING POWER STEERING ASSIST IN THESE VEHICLES. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT QUALIFY WITH GM SAFETY RECALL EVEN THOUGH MY VEHICLE HAD THE SAME ISSUE AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY UPWARDS OF 1600 DOLLARS TO GET THE ISSUE REPAIRED. I THEN CONTACTED GM CORPORATE REGARDING THE INCIDENT. THEY STATED VIA EMAIL THAT THE VEHICLE DID NOT QUALIFY FOR THE SAFETY RECALL EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED THE SAME ISSUES AS THOSE VEHICLES GM ACKNOWLEDGED. THEY INFORMED US THAT THEY WOULD DO NOTHING TO REPAIR THIS SAFETY ISSUE AND WE WERE LEFT WITH NO OTHER AVENUES. THE ISSUE HAS COME AND GONE A COUPLE OF TIMES SINCE THEN LUCKILY IN LESS DANGEROUS SITUATIONS WITH THE WORST ONE EVEN LEADING THE VEHICLE TO STEER TOWARDS THE SIDE OF A STREET STRIKING THE SIDEWALK. THIS INCIDENT DID NOT INJURE ANYBODY BUT DID CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE SUSPENSION SYSTEM. THE DAMAGE HAS BEEN REPAIRED OUT OF POCKET, HOWEVER IT STILL RAISES MAJOR CONCERNS TOWARDS THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND THAT OF MY FAMILY'S. I HAVE BEEN LUCKY THUS FAR THAT NONE OF THE INCIDENTS WITH GM FAULTY STEERING CONTROL ASSIST HAVE CAUSED DIRECT HARM TO MYSELF OR OTHERS.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2006","productMake":"PONTIAC","productModel":"G6","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]}]}
