2003 GMC HALF TON SIERRA TRUCK. 3 TIME SINCE 2003 THAT I'VE HAD TO TAKE IT IN FOR CLUNKING NOISE FELT THRU STEERING WHEEL. LUBED A COUPLE TIMES THEN REPLACED THE INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT. STILL NO GUARANTEES THAT IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN. ALSO VERY HARD TO STEER WHEN BRAKING AND BRAKES DON'T RESPOND WELL WHEN APPLIED QUICKLY. THE FIRST TIME THE INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT NEEDED ATTENTION THE TRUCK ONLY HAD 15,000 MILES ON IT. THE SECOND TIME WAS 30,000 MILES AND THE LAST TIME WAS 45,000 MILES AND OCCURRED IN MARCH 2010. *TR
