Consumer Description

MY 2009 GMC ACADIA STARTED TO LOCK UP WHILE STEERING/TURNING. I TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD I NEEDED TO REPLACE MY RACK. THEY QUOTED ME $1500! I COULD NOT AFFORD THIS, SO THEY TOLD ME IT'S DRIVABLE BUT WILL EVENTUALLY GET WORSE. I CANNOT PARK EASY IN PARKING LOTS, I CAN'T MAKE EASY TURNS AND IT'S TERRIFYING WHEN I TAKE MY KIDS IN THE CAR. I TOOK IT OTHER PLACES - SOME SAID IT'S THE RACK AND OTHERS IT'S THE PUMP. SO FAR I HAD TO REPLACE COILS EVERY MONTH, MY ENGINE HAD TO BE REMODELED AFTER A ROD SNAPPED OFF INTO IT AND NOW THIS! PLEASE RECALL THIS!!!!!!!!! IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE AND WAY TOO COSTLY! *TR
