Problems with 2006 Chevrolet HHR STEERING

When driving the steering wheel will lock up and i can not turn.power steering warning message appear in the dash panel. this occurs when driving on the highway or anywhere i'm driving

When driving my power steering shuts off and the light pops on however when i turn car off and back on it works again for a few minutes. i was driving on a city street and turned and it shut off and i almost hit a pole because of this thank god my 3 year old was not with me this time

While driving the power steering shut down and dangerously went into manual mode. upon stopping and starting the p.s. worked for 5 minutes then it went out again. only 151k miles.

I was heading out to my car and tried to remote start my car and it did t work and i tried it twice and then got in my car and notice my check engine light and power steering came on after i put the car in gear and began moving and i stopped and when i went to turn it was hard to turn and had to use to hands and i did research and this a know problem and the remotes and this power steering issue should be recalled or it may hurt or kill someone

Electric power steering malfunctioning causing power steering to shut off while operating vehicle at highway speeds. should be a recall for this. all models but hhr were recalled for this issue

The power steering fails while driving anywhere, when you shut the car off, it resets itself. this has happened a few times and now my mechanic read the codes and it said to replace the steering column

Power testing motor can fail randomly and at any time causing the car to revert to manual steering control and increasing chances of a crash. defective is the power steering motor controller and or the torque angle sensor! wife was mid-turn when power steering failed and she almost ran into a tree. 16 year old daughter was driving and veered into oncoming traffic when power steering motor failed while she wasn't in a turn.

Power steering goes out while driving if i pull over and turn car off then back on power steering will come back on but only for a couple minuted

Driving down the road and warning sound comes on and power steering goes across the digital dash saying power steering then power steering goes out. some one is going to be killed unless it's recalled. have read several complaints if the same thing. i just purchased this car 3 weeks ago. i carry 3 kids with me

Power steering warning light comes on while driving and difficult to steer. resets when ignition turned off and back on, however repeatedly happens every few blocks while driving. this is dangerous and there is a recall for later 2009-2010...why not for all years?

My 2006 hhr lost power steering. the light came on and it took all i had to steer it. everytime i cut it all off and crank it back up the light will go off and i can drive it for about a minute to 5 minutes usually in the light saying power steering will come on and the steering issue will occur again. i love my hhr and this is my first chevrolet product but i really think there should be a recall due to the fact that after much much research i have found that the hhr as well as other chevrolet vehicles have hundreds to thousands of people with the same exact complaint. the power steering light would come on and they would lose all power steering. this should not be a cost that us who have purchased and put our trust of safety into chevrolet to have to bare. this can be extremely dangerous and can actually lead to vehicle fatalities due to the power steering going out. chevrolet should be responsible for the repairs of the power steering due to it being a known fact based on very much research and complaints from so many ...

Every couple weeks while driving my car, there will be a ding sound with a message indicating power steering failure. i have to pull over and keep turning it on and off. eventually it seems to reset itself and work again. i cannot steer it at all when it fails and is at times hard to get off the road in time before it locks up. it is very dangerous since i have to drive on a highway to get to work.

I have had a terrible time with the power steering on my 2006 chevy hhr. sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. there is no apparent cause. these changes from working to not working and back can happen at any time at any speed. fortunately i am strong enough to wrestle with it and steer it manually so far. i received a notice from gm about it but the dealer refused to honor it. they replaced the power steering motor and charged me over $300, but that didn't do any good. also twice a message appeared about reduced engine power and the engine had almost no power to get up hills. i was creeping along at about 10 mph on a super highway. i shut off the engine, turned it on again after a few minutes and the engine had normal power again. also the door lock light comes on for no apparent reason when i'm driving. the dealer claims that the problems can't be diagnosed unless they see it acting up. of course it doesn't do these things when it is in the shop. i am really ...

A chip had to be replaced for the power steering to work.also the driver visor keeps falling down and blocking my view when driving.

While driving in town or on freeway the power steering alert will come on the display readout and there is an automatic loss of the power steering. power steering comes back after the car has been turned off, but only for a few seconds then repeats the loss. it has been doing that every day since 12/05/2017.
