1 Steering Noise problem

Failure Date: 12/04/2012

We have been plagued with a steering wheel column problem for over 18 months. This problem started at 50,000 miles. It made a loud squealing noise when the steering wheel was turned and over the numerous visits to various GMC dealers, we were repeatedly told there was nothing wrong and it was safe to drive. After contacting GMC itself, they sent us to a dealer who at first again said there was nothing wrong. Then two hours after being challenged they retested and ¿discovered� what they described as wear and tear. We were charged $1,250 and given a 1 year warranty. They denied this was a recalled component. I still do not trust the results nor this car, but I cannot afford getting another car.

2 Steering Noise problem

Failure Date: 05/20/2005

Every time I turn it sounds like the power steering is going to go out. The steering is fine but the noise is very loud. Alot of research indicated that several other people have the same problem along with the anti lock breaks as I do.
