Consumer Description

THE ALUMINUM SUBFRAME HAS TWO BRACKETS THAT NEED TO BE WELDED ACCORDING TO CHEVROLET. THE ALUMINUM SUBFRAME "FLEXES" CAUSING A CLICKING SOUND WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED TO THE LEFT AND THE RIGHT. CHEVROLET ADVISED THE DEALER TO WELD THE TWO BRACKETS AND THAT SHOULD QUIET THE NOISE. CHEVROLET SAID THAT THERE ARE NO SAFETY BULLETINS ON THIS ISSUE. *AK
