Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Dorman Products is recalling certain replacement intermediate steering shafts sold under the Dorman, OE Solutions, and Solutions brand names (part numbers 425-167, 2425167, and 7-3074) for 2004-2012 Chevrolet Malibu, 2005-2010 Pontiac G6, and 2007-2009 Saturn Aura vehicles. The steering shafts may have a yoke that inadequately supports the u-joint bearing, causing it to fail prematurely. When the joint fails, the u-joint can separate, resulting in a complete loss of steering control and increased risk of a crash.
Dorman will notify owners of the recall, which began in September 2014. Dealers will replace the defective steering shafts or refund the purchase price, free of charge. If you believe you have been affected, you should contact Dorman customer service at 1-800-523-2492.
