Consumer Description

1998 MONTE CARLO :COMPLAINED OF GROWLING NOISE AT LOW SPEED TURNS; ALSO, NOT MENTIONED TO SHOP BUT WAS TOLD BY FRIEND THAT HE THOUGHT THE WHEEL WAS HARDER TO TURN THEN OTHER VEHICLES. SHOP INFORMED ME THAT RACK AND PINION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I CHECKED THE SERVICE MANUAL TO FIND OUT WHY IT COULD NOT BE RECONDITIONED BUT STOPPED AFTER SEEING THAT THERE WAS A EXISTING PROBLEM BEING INVESTIGATED ABOUT FAULTY RACK AND PINIONS. NOTE THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 26000 MILES ON IT. *LA
