Twice in the last week my 06 has had a problem with the power steering. Both times involved slick roads and a minor slide. After the slide, the DIC showed "Power Steering" and the power was gone. After putting the HHR in park and restarting, the warning was gone and the steering was back to normal. Anybody else had this problem?

Tony, this is a long shot, but have you checked all the fuses to make sure they are seated. Could possibly be causing the problem.
Let us know how you make out?

Checked the fuses. All seated ok. Must be related to the traction control somehow. Has only done it when a slide has occurred.

Well............. the power steering is acting up more often. I'll just be driving down the road and it will quit. Did it 5 times in one day. Going to the dealer Monday to have it checked out with a couple other problems.
