2005 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN Steering Problems

This vehicle has less than 84,000 miles on it, and the chassis or frame is rotted. The rear anti sway bar already rotted off it, and the front bar is hanging down on the passenger side. I have photos of this, but don't know how to download them. The body has a little rot here, and there, but that is repairable. I spent a lot of money in purchasing this vehicle, and I expected it to last a very long time. The interior is almost like new. I am thinking about putting a tort claim about this to GM. Please help me all you can. I forgot to write that I also spent extra money for it to be undercoated, and it is supposed to be a lifetime warranty. I called that company, and they said it was only for 10 years. When I buy a new vehicle, I expect...

BRAKES GAVE OUT SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING.CHEVY DEALER SAID LINES ARE RUSTED AND NEED REPLACE AT COST OF $1600.ALSO JUST REPLACED STEERING GEAR BOX PITMAN ARM AND IDLER ARM AND WHEEL BEARING HUB AT A COST OF $2300 BECAUSE YOUR NUTS ON THE STEERING ASSEMBLY HAVE A TENDENCY TO COME OFF.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY WHEN I HAD TO APPLY A STRONG FORCE TO THE BRAKES IN ORDER TO AVOID HITTING A VEHICLE. SIMULTANEOUSLY, THE SURBURBAN BRAKES BECAME VERY STIFF AND I LOST POWER STEERING AT THE SAME TIME. AFTER APPLYING AN EXTREME EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF FORCE I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE AND AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I HAD TO FIND THE NEAREST EXIT AND WHILE DOING SO IT WAS EXTREMELY HARD TO MAKE A 15 DEGREE TURN AND ALSO EXTREMELY HARD TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS AND I WAS SCARED FOR MY LIFE. I TOLD A MECHANIC ABOUT THIS AND HE SAID IT SOUND LIKE A BAD HYDRO BOOSTER. I LOOKED IT UP ONLINE AND SAW THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT. WHEN I LOOKED IT UP IT SAID 0 OPEN. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE HELP!.

THE EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE WAS NORMAL VEHICLE OPERATION FOR APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR. THE FAILURE TO THE VEHICLE WAS A VIBRATION IN THE STEERING SHAFT. CONSEQUENCES COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A LOSS OF STEERING. CHEVROLET SERVICE LUBED THE STEERING SHAFT PER A GM SERVICE BULLETIN. THIS REPAIR WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR LATER, THE SAME FAILURE OCCURRED. CHEVROLET SERVICE STATED THAT GM HAS DEVELOPED A NEW STEERING SHAFT TO ELIMINATE THIS PROBLEM. I WILL BE TAKING MY VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIR 3 DAYS FROM THIS WRITING. CHEVROLET SUGGESTED THIS COMPLAINT AS A METHOD OF OBTAINING A RECALL AND SUBSEQUENTLY A REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE REPAIR. *TR
