Consumer Description

I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN WHEN VEHICLE GOT VERY HARD TO CONTROL AS I WAS FINISHING MY TURN POWER STEERING PUMP STARTED WORKING AGAIN AND I ALMOST SIDE SWIPED ANOTHER VEHICLE DUE TO THE FORCE I HAD TO APPLY TO THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN PUMP QUIT WORKING. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER AND THEY SAID POWER STEERING PUMP WAS LEAKING AND THAT THERE HAS BEEN MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS OF THIS HAPPENING IN GMC. THEY DID STATE IT WAS A MECHANICAL FAILURE IN THE POWER STEERING ISSUE OF THE VEHICLE BUT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED AS IF YET. ANY HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. I SEE THIS AS A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION OF THE VEHICLE THAT SHOULD BE LOOKED AT CLOSELY UPON GMC'S BEHALF. *TR
