took the dealer bout an hour to do the job of replacing the electric DC motor...which displayed failed code C0475. no charge with the Bulletin 14119.....Krispy Kreme donuts and coffee......while being fixed, got to check out some Z06 and Grand Sport Vettes in the showroom.......maybe in another life.....lol

I'm so glad I found this site!

I've been driving around for a year without power steering. I didn't want to spend the money to get it fixed. Plus, I could skip arm day at the gym.

I just got mine replaced by the dealership this morning. Going to pick it up after work. My 2006 HHR was covered by the warranty.

Thanks chevyhhr.net

In the letter, on page 3, right above Carmen's signature, is the language for the 2006- early 2009. In case your dealer has selective reading impairment.

Everything seems to come in bunches...
Just started having trouble 2010 HHR with the PS today, light came on then no PS.
