Steering Stiffness
I just picked up a 2007 HHR, and the steering seems to be stiff and fail to return coming out of curves, I don't get any message saying the power steering is disabled, (not sure where the DIC is located ) the power steering appears to be somewhat working, when I turn the wheels it feels somewhat easy and the headlight seem to dim when turning the wheel and sitting still.
Does this sound like a Steering motor issue ?

2007 hhr
Hi all, my 007 HHR LS, experiencing same problems with power steering, seems to be good one day and not the next. No error ever shows up on the dash\readout.
I used the GM Canada online chat and provided my VIN, I was told no recall on the 07 as of yet. Any tips to solve this? The PS motor seems to be fine when its working, so it makes me suspect the motor is good. maybe something else is the cause?

Beginning at around 85,000 miles my power steering began going out. I took it to the Chevy Service Center and had them look at it. They told me it was the power steering motor. Unfortunately, there is no recall on the 2007 Chevy HHR power steering. It is strange that so many people are having this same problem! Mine almost got me killed. I have to drive on a very busy highway to get to work and mine would go out at the most inconvenient times. I am a teacher and cannot afford to be getting a new repair on this horrible HHR every month. I decided to put the new motor in myself. I bought a new motor from them. They told me Chevy no longer makes brand new ones and I would have to get a refurbished one. This is weird considering the recall of the other cars. I guess they are putting refurbished parts on those too. It was simple to put on and the power steering seems to be working. The problem I am having now is a whining, or squeaking noise that the car makes every time I turn the wheel. This can be both while driving and sitting in park turning the wheel. Do you think they gave me a bad Power Steering Motor? It hasn't kicked off yet and seems to be working. I need help. I cannot stand the noise. Thanks.

power steering
Hi I am the very frustrated owner of a 2008 hhr. I would like to know if anyone is getting any type of help with this power steering problem that is plaguing us??? I have contacted Cheverolt who informed me that I would receive no help with my problem (even though 2009-2010) HHRs have been recalled with the SAME EXACT ISSUES) because my car was made in a different plant.. Really it's the same problem, so my or my loved ones lives don't matter because of where the freaking car was made???!!! Someone please help!!!
