STEERING:COLUMN
I BOUGHT MY 2004 CHEVY SILVERADO IN MAY OF 2007 WHEN I TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE ALL SEEMED TO BE IN GOOD OPERATING CONDITION. LATER THAT WINTER I STARTED TO NOTICE A CLUNKING SOUND IN THE DASH AREA AROUND THE STEERING COLUMN AND ON A FEW OCCASIONS THE STEERING SEEMED TO GET STIFF OR HARD TO TURN MOSTLY AT LOW SPEEDS SUCH AS IN A PARKING LOT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM, BUT TO MY SURPRISE WHEN I PICKED UP THE TRUCK THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. MY SON NOW WORKS FOR THE SAME DEALERSHIP AND HAS TOLD ME ABOUT PROBLEMS WITH THE STEERING SHAFT BUT MY DEALER REFUSES TO ADMIT ANY DEFECTS. *TR
