NHTSA Complaint #10892682 — 2011 BUICK ENCLAVE

NOTICED A WHINING NOISE IN MY STEERING WHEEL WHEN TURNING. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS "NORMAL". NOT BEING SATISFIED WITH THIS TOOK IT IN AND INSISTED THEY CHECK IT. I WAS THEN TOLD THE RACK AND PINION IS FAILING AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE COST WOULD BE $2000. I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW AND IT ONLY HAS 41,000 MILES ON IT. I FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD BE PAID BY GM SINCE THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT AND VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. I WILL NO LONGER BUY ANYTHING BUILT BY GM IF THIS IS HOW THEY TREAT THEIR CUSTOMERS. I PAID $53,000 AND I THOUGHT I WOULD HAVE THIS CAR FOR A FEW MORE YEARS. I GUESS NOT.
