Consumer Description

POWER STEERING CONSISTENTLY CUTS OUT WHEN TURNING *RIGHT* AND ENGINE IS COLD. ALSO EXPERIENCED SAME ISSUE WHEN ENGINE IS WARM BUT DE-ACCELERATING (SLOWING DOWN) AND TURNING RIGHT. THIS FORCES VEHICLE INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC LANE BECAUSE IT WILL NOT TURN. HAPPENS AT VARIOUS SPEEDS IN ALL TYPES OF TRAFFIC. THIS SITUATION HAS BEEN PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE. LOCAL DEALER SAYS THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF ANY PROBLEMS FITTING THIS DESCRIPTION. HOWEVER, MULTIPLE CHEVY BLOGS ARE FULL OF SIMILAR REPORTS AND ALL STATE CHEVY IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY. (??)
