At low speeds, my Buick Enclave makes noise when turning and has failed on two occasions. There are many complaints but no recall. People will get hurt or killed due to steering failure. My car is outside of the warranty and I can't afford to fix it.
Tl-the contact owns a 2010 Buick Enclave. The contact stated the steering wheel failed without warning while driving at 65mph.

My 2010 Buick Enclave has now had the steering rack fail twice in it's first year. The steering pump has now failed. This starts off as a rub and then soon after begins to have grinding in the steering wheel. I have not let it progress and had it reparied immediately each time. The dealer told me the parts were redesigned yet less than 6 months after installing the new parts, it failed again. I was told by the mechanic that there was insufficient oil in the part and the redesign was to add more oil. Clearly that has not worked. I was told if not promptly repaired, it would lead to loss of steering. I have already filed for repurchase of the vehicle under the lemon law in my state. The dealer also made statements about this being a known issue and that they are trying to get vehicles repaired as they come in and are trying to figure out why it's failing. Additionally I visited the Buick Enclave forums and some other sites and have indeed found this to be a common problem. I don't have a working knowledge of auto mechanics but I'm very concerned about the possible loss of steering control and the inability of the dealer to fix my problem.
