Consumer Description

2003 CHEVY SILVERADO - POOR STEERING- I HAVE REPLACED THE GEARING BOX W/FRONT END ALIGNMENT DUE TO HAVING 4 ESTIMATES AND ADVISED THAT THE GEAR BOX WAS DEFECTED. 6 MONTHS LATER - I HAVE BEEN ADVISED BY SEVERAL CERTIFIED MECHANICS THAT THE GEAR BOX THAT WAS PUT IN IS ALSO DEFECTED. POOR STEERING CONTROL, TRUCK PULLS ALL OVER THE ROAD WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH. IF THE STEERING BOXES FOR THIS YEAR/MAKE VEHICLES ARE DEFECTED, WHY NOT COMPENSATE THE OWNERS FOR ALL THE EXPENSES. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THESE PARTS FOR THIS YEAR VEHICLE IS IN FACT DEFECTED. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS/ACCIDENTS/INJURIES DOES IT TAKE BEFORE THESE ISSUES ARE ACKNOWLEDGED? I HAVE SPENT OVER $1,500.00 JUST IN THE BRAKING AND STEERING REPAIRS AND YET FACED AGAIN WITH MORE COST OR EITHER GET RID OF MY TRUCK THAT I HAD FOR 1 YEAR. *TR
