description: WE WERE ON VACATION AND I WAS TRAVELING ON A ROAD AT THE POSTED SPEED OF 30 MPH. I WAS GOING AROUND A BEND AND IMMEDIATELY MY POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON, THERE WAS A CHIME, IT BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO MANAGE THE BEND I WAS GOING AROUND AND I HIT A LIGHT POLE DAMAGING MY FRONT BUMPER. AT THAT SAME TIME, MY MHP AND RMP NEEDLES BEGAN BOUNCING BACK AND FORTH AND THE CAR WAS "JERKING". I TURNED THE CAR OFF. IT WAS STILL DRIVABLE, BUT WITHIN A FEW SECONDS THE POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME BACK ON, THE NEEDLES BOUNCED AND CAR JERKED. I CALLED GM TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE POWER STEERING. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL GM POWER STEERING RECALLS ON SEVERAL YEARS OF HHR, COBALT AND SATURNS. THEY ALL HAVE VERY SIMILAR POWER STEERING MECHANISMS. HOWEVER, MY YEAR, 2006, WAS NOT ON THAT RECALL. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND FOUND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH 2006 HHR'S COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUES BUT NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY THAT YEAR IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.
