Consumer Description

WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN STEERING WHEEL WILL SUDDENLY PULL HARD TO RIGHT, ALMOST AS IF SOMEONE GRABBED WHEEL AND PULLED IT. I DO NOT REMEMBER HAVING THIS PROBLEM UNTIL I HAD BRAKE TROUBLE AT AROUND 58,000 MILES. THE FRONT PADS WERE REPLACED, ROTORS RESURFACED, AND PACKED FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS. AFTER HAVING THE BRAKES FIXED, I STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM OF THE STEERING PULLING TO THE RIGHT WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN. SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH A 1997 GMC, YUKON.*AK
