Consumer Description

I BOUGHT MY 2003 CHEVY TAHOE IN OCTOBER 2006, AND WITHIN 3 MONTHS AFTER I HAD IT THE STEERING SHAFT WAS VIBRATING TERRIBLY, MADE ME VERY NERVOUS AS IT FELT LOOSE. I TOOK IT TO OUR LOCAL MECHANIC WHO CHECKED IT OUT AND ASSUMED THERE MAY BE A RECALL BUT THERE WAS NOT SO HE STUCK A BUNCH OF GREASE IN IT AND IT WAS GOOD. THAT LASTED ABOUT 6 MONTHS AND AGAIN IN ANOTHER 6 MONTHS OR SO. I HAVE HAD IT IN 3 TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE AND HAVE TO PAY EACH TIME TO GET THE STEERING SHAFT GREASED AND I THINK THAT IS RIDICULOUS. THIS IS A TOP DOLLAR AUTOMOBILE SO ONE WOULD THINK THESE PROBLEMS WOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE. VERY DISAPPOINTED. *TR
