Power Steering Failed problems of the 2005 Saturn ION - part 2

I have a 2005 Saturn Ion with only 20,000 miles on it. Recently my power steering has been failing repeatedly. It goes out with little warning at any time. I have seen other gm models recalled for this same issue but not Saturn. I have read online about 100s of people with this same problem! this is a safety issue, why isn't it being recalled? I only have a power train warranty left on this vehicle and I have heard this would cost up to $1500 which is completely unfair! I am still making payments and it has hardly any miles on it! I did not expect something major to happen this soon. They need to respect their customers safety and fix this issue!!!!!! and no there hasn't been any deaths or injuries "yet" but I am expecting it as soon as I have to make a sharp turn and can't!.

2005 Saturn Ion power steering failure. Why no recall? many people are having this power steering failure. It involves the whole steering column. It is very dangerous when you are driving everyday and this power steering fails.

Electric power steering failing after 5 minutes of driving on 2005 Saturn Ion-2.

Electric power steering failure in 2005 Saturn Ion in less than 16000 miles but 8 months out of warranty. Power steering became operational after each restart, but failed again within 3-5 minutes of driving. Very difficult to steer posing a safety hazard for my wife. Dealer repair required replacement of complete steering column approaching $1000 in repair cost. Ignition switch has also failed to permit car from starting on two occasions. Dealer also replaced at the same time. Dealer returned both parts to me. I have learned that both are common failures with this car and other gm compacts. Several incidents of repeated failures of the electric power steering. There should have been recalls or reimbursement for these premature failures. No wonder gm is going bust with a product of such low reliability and poor design.
