Consumer Description

POWER STEERING GOES OUT INTERMITANTLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. GREAT EFFORT REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN STEERING IN STRAIGHT LINE AND TURNING ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. JUST MISSED HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE WHILE TURNING TODAY BUT HAS HAPPENED A NUMBER OF TIMES IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS. THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN FROM GM TO REPAIR FOR FREE BUT IT EXPIRED LAST YEAR BUT THE VEHICLE AND OTHERS LIKE IT ARE STILL ON THE ROAD AFTER THIS "EXPIRATION" WITH AN UNSAFE DEFECT
