Consumer Description

THERE IS LOSS OF POWER STEERING ASSIST WHEN TRAVELING AT LOW SPEEDS. IT IS UNSAFE AS THE VEHICLE BECOMES HARD TO STEER WHEN TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT. THIS ISSUE IS KNOWN TO THE AUTO-MAKER AND THEY ONLY WANT TO REPLACE POWER STEERING PUMP AND FLUID. THE POWER STEERING GEAR IS LEAKING AND GM SHOULD RECALL THIS UNSAFE PART. THE STEERING FUNCTION OF AN AUTOMOBILE IS CRITICAL AS HUMAN LIVES ARE AT THE MERCY OF THIS COMPONENT OF THE VEHICLE TO OPERATE AS DESIGNED.
