WORK WAS DONE TO FIX PROBLEM ONLY TO FIND OUT LATER THAT THE REAR WHEELS WERE NOW TURNED TO THE LEFT MAKING THE TRUCK GO DOWN THE ROADSOME WHAT SIDEWAYS ABOUT 6 TO10 INCHES..THIS MEANS THE FRONT END IN YOUR LANE AND THE BACK END IN SOMEONE ELSE'S. THIS COULD NOT BE STOPPED BY TURNING THE SYSTEM OFFA SAFETY FEATURE. GM WOULD NOT FIX OR ADMIT IT HAD A PROBLEM, SO I HAD THE TRUCK REPAIRED AGAIN AT MY COST.
