HHR SS Power Steering Motor??

I was just on a trip up to PA from VA when my power steering went out. I pulled the fuse and made it home w/o power steering. I pulled the motor out today to get it ready to replace and it looks different than all of the motors I have seen replaced. Does the SS have a different power steering setup than the regular HHR? I need to get the correct replacement ASAP so I can get it back on the road.

One I saw from regular HHR:

I'd suggest you contact your GM dealer for that replacement, they will possibly replace it under that special letter they sent out last year!
At least call them and have your VIN ready.

The HHR SS does have a different EPS motor than the regular HHR's.

As far as that "special coverage" letter from GM. The SS's were not included in that.

Hhmmm , I'd still ask, just incase .
It wouldn't hurt some dealers have a heart!
