Problems with 2008 Chevrolet HHR STEERING

Electric power steering first started to fail about 12/20/19. it would not allow assisted steering until the vehicle started moving. it worked like this for a few days and then started to fail at random while driving, the worst incident when starting to make a turn at a busy intersection. i barely avoided an accident because it tried to straighten my wheels while i was in the turn. shortly after it failed completely. it now has no power assist. i would here a clicking from under the dash, and when that stopped, my steering returned. now it clicks and there is no further assist. i saw where other gm cars with this system were covered under a recall, including newer models, but when i called them, they stated there were no open recalls on my vehicle. the car is unsafe to drive in this state and needs to be repaired.

The power steering went out as we were dealing with a starter issue. it indicated only once on the dash that there might be something wrong with the power steering. now it's completely gone. the dash doesn't show any information that there could be an issue. it's very hard to take turns. both wide or tight. it takes a lot of strength to get the steering wheel to move. if i drive it, moving from lane to lane is difficult. i now have it back in the shop for the mechanic to check it out and run a diagnostic test on the electrical system.

The power steering is suddenly inoperative. no power steering. it just came on the warning lights one time, power steering, and i can't find a fix. the vehicle was parked in my driveway when it happened.

While driving on the major roadway in 5:00 traffic after work and while stopped to go forward in the car wash the power steering light gave a warning then dis engaged and steering was almost impossible. i read the owners manual and it said to turn the car back on and turn the wheel a couple times then the steering was ok to get me home i am afraid to drive it now ,in checking the website this is a known issue. can you help me please?!

I am having power steering problems. i can be driving down the roadway at any speed between 20-80mph and all of a sudden there will be a message under the speedometer that says 'power steering failure' and i will have lost all of my power steering control. i can pull over to the side of the roadway and turn my engine off and then restart the car and the power steering will work again. this has been occurring for the last 8 months too my car.

Steering wheel does not respond immediately when turning at a slow speed. within the past 8 months, the eps signal came on while driving and went off within a few minutes.

My steering feels threatening with loud sound under dash when turning, and car steering is too loose at times and also jumps alittle while turning.. im looking into what and how i can get it fixed, im told it is probably intermediate steering shaft and i understand many gm vehicles have had this issue. also, my 2 passenger doors wont open from inside or outside, the locks go up and down, but door handles also don't engage all way up when try to pull them, mechanic told me , its the actuators in handles because many people also have complained on this issue as well. so i have no access to back doors, i cant afford a new car. i am a senior on fixed income. is there any help for me to fix my car?

Power steering went out

I was sitting in traffic trying to merge and the power steering light flashed on the dash and i lost my power steering. i got home and shut the car off for a couple of hours and the steering was fine.i drove to the store and as i was pulling into a parking space it happened again,the light on the dash flashed and i lost my power steering. i am very concerned about this because my daughter also drives my vehicle and i do not want this to occur with her.i am questioning if this was part of the life time warranty recall as i have never received any notices.

For the past few months i noticed my power steering, cruise control being cut off and jerking with my car. but up til the beginning of august my car wouldn't start, it would crank but not start. come august 18th my car compllife roy won't start. there was a recall on my vehicle and the previous owner took in the car for the recall but now it's acting up again. multiple time where i loose control of my car and or the car would slow down to the point it felt like i was stopping then it would jerk. i thought the dealership could fix this but they can not, gm, rigth way and etc are not helping. i'm terrified my car won't work and also it'll be dangerous to drive.

Takara recall. while pressing on the break pedal to slow down or stop the entire steering wheel shakes uncontolabley. while driving on bumpy roads feels like the entire front end of the vehicle is going to fall apart. i have taken it into different places and they say everything is fine. next stop is the dealer.

Power steering unexpectedly goes out while driving. when i first turn in car, it is fine and can drive but after about 5 minutes power steering goes out.

I was driving on the highway and the power steering light came on the instrument panel and my steering was hard to turn. it's very hard to steer like if i was driving an older model car with no power steering. not very safe for me and the family

Loss of power steering on highway. nearly run over by logging truck trying to get to the shoulder. restarted car and problem went away for a while. now, the steering loss happens almost every time i drive. this is the same system that gm recalled for 2008-09 hhr's,(14v153000) and extended to the 2008 hhr through gm bulletin #14119. gm is refusing to acknowledge the recall!

Driving on a city street around 40 miles per hour when alarm sounds and i have no power steering. very hard to turn drove home and it did it again today....also tire sensors alarm stating tires are deflated...when they are fine..
