| 1997 | STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM | WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN POWER STEERING WENT OUT. ALSO, THIS OCCURRED WHEN VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN AT LOW SPEEDS. THIS VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME DEFECTS AS THE PONTIAC, GRAND PRIX WHICH WAS RECALLED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM.*AK |
| 2004 | STEERING | POPPING IN STEERING - THE STEERING GETS HARD TO TURN AND THERE IS A POPPING NOISE WHEN TURNING. I WAS TOLD BY THE FIRST DEALERSHIP THAT IT WAS A FAULTY PART BUT WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER ANY RECALLS. WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AFTER DAYS OF ARGUMENTS. WAS TOLD IT IS NOW A MAINTENANCE PROBLEM THAT WILL COST ABOUT $175.00 EACH TIME IT IS REPAIRED WITH A GREASING KIT - NO REPLACED AS DEFECTIVE - ABOUT TWICE A YEAR SO FAR. I FEEL IT SHOULD STATE IT IN THE OWNERS MANUAL AS A MAINTENANCE ISSUE IG THAT IS WHAT IT IS. *TR |
