Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY ENCLAVE AND I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT I LOST POWER STEERING. I CALLED ON STAR AND THEY SAID IT WAS NOT SOMETHING THEY COULD DIAGNOSE. SUGGESTED I CHECK THE PS FLUID...I DID AND IT WAS JUST BELOW THE MIN LINE. I ADDED FLUID, IT GOT BETTER BUT I COULD STILL SENSE SOME PROBLEM. SVC SHOP SAID THERE WAS A LEAK, NEEDED TO REPLACE THE RACK AND PINION. BRINGING TO DEALER NEXT. I'VE SEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS/ARTICLES ABOUT PW PUMP PROBLEMS, LEAKS. I HAVE 60,200 MILES. SEEMS LIKE THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE (WHAT IF I LOST PS ON THE HIGHWAY), WHY ISN'T GM DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT? *TR
