NHTSA Complaint #11344326 — 2010 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE

DIFFICULT TO TURN AT SLOW SPEEDS. WHILE I HAD IT AT DEALER FOR OTHER RECALL ISSUES I WAS TOLD THE RACK AND PINION SYSTEM WAS BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT MY COST AS IT WAS NOT A RECALL.I WAS TOLD THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING SITUATION. I ASKED IF THAT WERE THE CASE WHY GM DOESN'T HAVE A RECALL FOR IT.A CAR THAT WAS ONLY 3 YRS. OLD AND UNDER 60,000MI. SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM.I GOOGLED WHAT WOULD CAUSE THIS TO GO OUT IN SUCH A SHORT TIME FRAME AND READ THAT MOST LIKELY IT WAS NOT GREASED OR ASSEMBLED PROPERLY! A FRIEND WHO HAD THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL HAD TO REPLACE HERS AT HER COST. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE AS IT IS A DANGEROUS DRIVING PROBLEM. AS FAR AS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WHILE DRIVING THE BACK SEAT HEAT CONTROL WILL SOMETIMES JUST RANDOMLY TURN ON. GM SHOULD BACK THEIR WORK ON THIS RACK AND PINION STEERING DEFECT!
