Consumer Description
2009 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE STEERING "LOCKS UP" ALMOST LIKE LOSING POWER STEERING WHEN TURNING (OFTEN AT LOW SPEEDS LIKE AROUND ROUNDABOUTS) AND NEED TO USE ALL MY STRENGTH TO MAKE SUCCESSFUL TURN WITHOUT HITTING VEHICLES AROUND ME THEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN IT "GIVES" AND IS OK AND OVERCORRECTING OCCURS BECAUSE I AM USING ALL MY STRENGTH TO MAKE THE TURN .... VERY SIMILAR TO MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS THAT I'VE READ ONLINE ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE IN THE SAME MAKE/MODEL/YEAR VEHICLE
