Consumer Description

CLUNKING NOISE IN STEERING WHEEL.. LOCAL AAA REPAIR CENTER GAVE ME A SERVICE BULLETIN LISTING THIS AS A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING INTERMEDIATE SHAFT IN VARIOUS GM MODELS SINCE 2000. THE ABOVE MENTIONED SHAFT WAS REPLACED AND THE CLUNKING WENT AWAY I HAVE THE REPLACED SHAFT GM'S ORIGINAL FIX WAS A LUBE KIT(WHICH DID NOT LAST) THEN THEY LISTED A NEW "FIX" CHANGE THE SHAFT. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THE NHTSA HAS REVIEWED THIS PROBLEM SINCE THIS IS A PART IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND PROBLEMS WERE IDENTIFIED IN THE 2000 YEAR MODELS? WHY WASN'T THERE A RECALL ON THIS? *TR
