Six problems related to steering is tight have been reported for the 2007 Saturn ION. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I own a 2007 Saturn Ion, I recently started having trouble with the steering, the steering wheel is very tight and when I make a turn I need to physically turn the wheel back if I don't the car will continue going in the direction I was turning. I am now having trouble keeping it on the road as it wants to pull to the left, it is in alinement. I purchased my car in 2013 from the original owner I did receive the recall notice for the ignition switch but never received notice 14v15300. When I enter my VIN# it shows that there no recalls. I drive 36 miles a day for work, I have not had an accident but it's getting to the point that I am afraid to drive and this is my only vehicle.
Was driving down I-70 at 70mph and power steering message came on and chimed a few times. Then, the steering wheel was locked up and hard to turn. Pulled into gas station to check under hood, but didn't notice anything. Then got back in the car and turned it on and the steering was fine. Purchased Saturn Ion in October 2007 and still have extended warranty coverage. Will gm cover power steering issue? thank you!.
I was driving home going about 55 mph when a signal light came on saying power steering. The steering wheel was very hard to turn almost causing a car accident with 3 cars.
Electric steering went out in the middle of a turn and I came very close to going into a very steep ditch as the steering wheel was so hard in turning. Thank goodness I was not hurt, if anyone less strong than I was driving they would most certainly be in the 8 foot steep ditch. . .
2007 Saturn Ion power unit light comes on and the steering is hard to turn. Checked fuses and there is no problem. Car does not take power steering fluid, it is an electric power steering unit.
Ion that the steering is being so hard to turn. Purchase the car and after 20,000 miles on it the car begin to go down. But the worst is the steering. The tires were no good the window wipers were no good.
