Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING OUR 2009 GMC ACADIA AND AS I WAS SLOWING AND TURNING THE CAR BECAME VERY HARD TO STEER, IF I WAS APPLYING THE BRAKE I COULD BARELY TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. I THEN ASKED MY FATHER TO TEST IT OUT AND EVEN HE COULD BARELY TURN IT WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES AND WAS TIGHT TO STEER IN GENERAL. I AM 500 MIKES FROM HOME, BUT NOT SURE IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE BACK HOME. WILL CALL DEALER BUT FROM ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS IT SOUNDS LIKE THE POWER STEERING PUMP IS OR HAS GONE OUT. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND ALTHOUGH I WAS CAUTIOUS WHILE DRIVING, IT IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD!!!! *TR
