Consumer Description

TEMPORARY LOSS OF STEERING. ON 4 OCCASIONS WITHIN THE PAST 2 WEEKS I HAD RECENTLY LEFT MY RESIDENCE AND WAS MAKING EITHER A LEFT OR RIGHT TURN. AT THE START OF THE TURN I COULD NOT STEER THE CAR. IT WAS AS IF SOMETHING WAS BROKEN, I DID HEAR A SQUEAL. I WAS ABLE TO RETURN HOME (ABOUT 2 BLOCKS) AND AGAIN CHECKED THE POWER STEERING FLUID AND THE SERPENTINE BELT. THE FLUID WAS CORRECT AND THE BELT IS ABOUT 8 MONTHS OLD. FOR THE RECALL #03V527000 IN 2003 I DID GO TO THE CHEVROLET DEALER IN FT. MYERS AND THEY CHECKED THE VEHICLE AND TOLD ME THAT THE CAR WAS OK. *TR
