Consumer Description

MY 2008 SATURN OUTLOOK STARTED TO LOSE STEERING AT LOW RATES OR SPEED BETWEEN 5MPH TO 15 MPH. IT BECOMES ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS. THE STEERING WILL LOCK UP AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND TOLD ME IT WAS THE STEERING GEAR AND STEERING PUMP; BOTH NEED REPLACED. I KNOW THIS IS A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE AND NEED TO HAVE IT REPLACED AS I HAVE A 5 MONTH CHILD AND AM UNABLE TO AFFORD THE $2000 COST THAT GM QUOTED ME. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS AND IT SEEMS LIKE THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE DUE TO THE STEERING ISSUE. *TR
