Consumer Description

TRANSMISSION DROPPED OUT @44000 MILES. 12/02 HAD TO REPLACE BOTH FRONT BALL JOINTS. SUMMER OF '03 STARTED MAKING LOUD POPPING NOISES WHICH CAME FROM FRONT RIGHT AREA, IT WOULD PULL UNEXPECTEDLY TO EITHER SIDE - MAINLY TO THE RIGHT AND SERVICE 4WD LIGHT WOULD COME ON. 10/03 HAD TO HAVE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL BEARING REPLACED. COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH 4WD-DON'T KNOW WHY LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. NOW 01/04, RIGHT FRONT WHEEL BEARING NEEDS REPLACED AGAIN. I'M TOLD PART UNDER WARRANTY AS LONG AS I OWN VEHICLE CAUSE GM HAS RECEIVED SO MANY COMPLAINTS. WHAT IS GM DOING TO CORRECT THE ROOT CAUSE OF THIS? I SEE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. THANK GOD I HAVE NOT HAD ANY ACCIDENTS, BUT HAVE HAD A FEW NEAR MISSES BECAUSE THE IT WOULD "JERK INSTANTLY" AND IT CAUGHT ME OFF GUARD. DOES AN ACCIDENT / INJURY / FATALITY HAVE TO HAPPEN BEFORE CORRECTIVE ACTION IS TAKEN? *CB
