Pontiac G6 under investigation for power steering loss

This week's recall woes come courtesy of the Pontiac G6, which is currently undergoing investigation by the lovable folks at the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA).

According to Bloomberg News, NHTSA has received 19 complaints about the G6s power steering failing, so far resulting in two crashes and one injury.

The affected models include 176,968 vehicles sold in 2005 and 2006 and assuming that NHTSA deems the problem recall-worthy, owners should expect a notice in their near future.
