My power steering is going out randomly making it unsafe to drive, I see there's a recall for 2010 chevy hhr power steering which is exactly what's happening with my vehicle. When I turn it off and turn it back on it will work for a minute then click and go back out, yet when my vin was ran the recall doesn't show up for my car even though the recall states 2010 chevy hhr.. mine clearly has the same issue as the other recall yet you guys haven't put it on my vin so it can be fixed properly.

While driving, my power steering fluid light indicator came on making it really hard to turn. After parking and turning the car on the steering wheel went back to normal. I had my mechanic to check my steering fluid and I did not need any added. This has happened 3 times while driving my car and I refuse to drive my car. Is there a recall on this the power steering?

RECENTLY, WITHOUT WARNING, I LOOSE THE POWER STEERING AND THE SIGN "POWER STEERING " COMES ON. IT BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT TO MAKE A TURN. WHEN I STOP THE CAR AND RESTART IT, THE STEERING IS BACK TO NORMAL BUT AFTER A FEW SECONDS IT GOES OUT AGAIN. THAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE LAST 1 OR 2 WEEKS. I CALLED THE DEALER YESTERDAY AND TOLD THEM ABOUT IT AND ASKED IF THERE WAS A RECALL, THEY SAID THAT MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT AFFECTED BY IT. I KNOW FROM RESEARCH THAT QUITE A FEW CARS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL. HOW DO THEY KNOW THAT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT AFFECTED BY IT. CAN YOU PLEASE INVESTIGATE IT? THANK YOU!

OUR CHEVY HHR 2010 HAS BEEN DYING AND STALLING OUT ON US WHILE WE ARE DRIVING IT, THE ONLY TIME IT HAD POWER GOING TO IT WAS WHEN IT WAS BEING JUMPED. EVEN THEN SOON AS THE CABLES WERE UNHOOKED IT WOULD JERK THEN DIE RIGHT AWAY. IT SEEMED AS IF MOST OF THE LIGHTS INSIDE AND OUTSIDED OF THE TRUCK ONLY WOULD FLASH WHILE JUMPING IT, THEN NOTHING. IT WAS ALSO VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL, AND EVERYTHING BASICALLY SEEMS LIKE IT'S MALFUNCTIONING. THIS HAS BEEN ON AND OFF FOR A FEW WEEKS NOW BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT, NOR CAN I EVEN START IT AT THIS POINT,BUT I DEFINITELY DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT THE WAY IT IS RIGHT NOW BEING THAT IT POWERS COMPLETELY OFF WHENEVER IT WANTS TO. IT WAS IN MOTION A FEW TIMES ON CITY STREETS, AND IN MOTION TURNING WHEN IT DIED FOR THIS LAST TIME. ITS NOW PARKED ON A STREET UNABLE TO DRIVE IT. *TR

VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY LOSES POWER STEERING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, FROM LOW TO HIGHWAY SPEEDS. MAKING THE VEHICLE VERY HARD TO STEER ESPECIALLY IN TURNS AND CORNERS, AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THERE IS AN EXISTING RECALL (14V15300) FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE, BUT WHEN CALLING THE GM DEALERSHIP AND THE GM CUSTOMER SERVICE LINE I WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLES VIN WAS NOT AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. HOW, IF I AM HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM, IS IT NOT CONSIDERED A 'SAFETY ISSUE' FOR ME? BUT THEY WERE MORE THAN HAPPY TO SCHEDULE ME AN APPOINTMENT TO FIX THE 'KNOWN ISSUE', AT MY EXPENSE OF COURSE. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 61,000 MILES, SO THIS IS NOT A NORMAL 'WEAR AND TEAR' ISSUE. ESPECIALLY WHEN I FIND AN ARTICLE BY RUETERS IN WHICH THE VICE PRESIDENT OF GM'S GLOBAL VEHICLE SAFETY SAYS 'WITH THESE SAFETY RECALLS AND LIFETIME WARRANTIES, WE ARE GOING AFTER EVERY CAR THAT MIGHT HAVE THIS PROBLEM, AND WE ARE GOING TO MAKE IT RIGHT," SAID JEFF BOYER, VICE PRESIDENT OF GM GLOBAL VEHICLE SAFETY. "WE HAVE RECALLED SOME OF THESE VEHICLES BEFORE FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND OFFERED EXTENDED WARRANTIES ON OTHERS, BUT WE DID NOT DO ENOUGH." VERY FRUSTRATING THAT A VIN IS WHAT DETERMINES MINE AND MY FAMILY'S SAFETY! GM NEEDS TO STAND BEHIND ALL THEIR VEHICLES WITH THIS PROBLEM, NOT JUST A SELECT GROUP...

2010 CHEVY HHR LT WITH 76,500 MILES. SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING. UPON DOING RESEARCH THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM BY GM AND THEY REFUSE TO WARRANTY THE DEFECT OR PERFORM A RECALL. UNSAFE TO DRIVE WHEN POWER STEERING SUDDENLY QUITS ON HIGHWAY. WAS DRIVING APPROX. 60 MILES PER HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN LIGHT CAME ON DASH AND LOST POWER STEERING. STEERING TO A LOT OF EFFORT.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2010 CHEVY HHR, I HAD JUST EXITED THE HIGHWAY AND WAS ENTERING THE SPEEDWAY FUEL STATION, MY STEERING JUST SEEMED TO LOCKUP ON ME AND A DASH ALERT FLASHED "SERVICE ESC" THEN I SUDDENLY LOST ALL POWER! IN ORDER TO AVOID ANY MAJOR TRAGEDY LIKE COLLIDING WITH A GAS PUMP OR ANOTHER VEHICLE, I WAS ABLE TO RUN IT INTO THE CURB I FELT LIKE MY ARMS WERE NEARLY RIPPED FROM THE SOCKETS. AFTER HAVING IT TOWED TO MY HOME AND THE FOLLOWING DAY TOWED TO A MECHANIC. DISCOVERED THAT THE EXPERIENCE WAS NOT EXCLUSIVELY MINE, APPARENTLY SOME 444 OTHERS HAD AS WELL. I CHECKED FOR RECALL NOTICES WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALLS WERE CLOSED AND REPAIRS WERE DONE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW BY WHOM, WHEN AND WHERE EXACTLY! IT OBVIOUSLY WAS NOT DONE PERMANENTLY NOR SATISFACTORILY AS I'M VERY SORE NOW, BUT COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED!
