1 Steering Column problem of the 2004 Cadillac Deville

Failure Date: 09/30/2014

Driving from exit ramp onto highway car was very difficult to keep in center of lane, is seems to be better after stability system replaced in steering column. Was not called in for recall of keys until, 12/05/14. Heater stopped working by 50%, electric door lock stopped working approx same time. Brakes not working as well, same time frame. Everything was checked out in Feb; this year, although started noticing steering problems August, September. , 2014. I thought it was a slow leak in the tire causing the steering problem, although now believe it had something to do with the stability control system, steering column area. We were charged for the repair, even though it falls under the recall complaints. What we thought was going to be a $100 or $150. 00 job, as I ok'd them to use the multi-point inspection machine and check anti freeze level, costs us $688. 15. The first estimate was over $4,000, unbelievable, in which the agent said " they had to pay the mechanic for his labor". $533. 76 for labor, $131. 50 for a part which is a recall. Service stability control system . I will be going back to talk with GMC manager.

3 Steering Column problem of the 2005 Cadillac Deville

Failure Date: 08/02/2014

Vehicle cuts off at random times while in motion. The car ignition cuts off all power to the engine and power steering when the car hits a bump, railroad track, or pothole. Bumping the column cover will also cut off the engine, and the power steering. The vehicle has had the key modification which would appear to have no affect on the problem of the ignition randomly rotating out of the on position.

4 Steering Column problem of the 2004 Cadillac Deville

Failure Date: 03/12/2014

I was accelerating onto main hi-way when steering wheel locked up and could not turn steering wheel and was almost hit by a motor home as my car went straight across hi way instead of turning which I was trying to do. Took a few tries to get vehicle safely off road as steering wheel could not be turned. Called my son who brought tools to take steering column apart. When I inspected the cause, the steering wheel lock button would not disengage so had to remove steering wheel lock button from steering column. Since then the vehicle has no steering wheel lock so car can be shifted without pressing the brake at the same time but by simply moving the gear shift lever when key is in run or accessory position!.

7 Steering Column problem of the 2001 Cadillac Deville

Failure Date: 08/23/2006

When I purchased my Cadillac, it had 22,000 miles on it. There was a "bumping" in the steering when I turned at slow speeds. I complained about it on several occasions. 1. The dealer repaired a broken motor mount, didn't fix it. 2. The dealer changed the rack & pinion, didn't fix it. 3. The dealer changed the tie rod ends, didn't fix it. 4. An independent mechanic tightened up loose bolts in the front end, didn't fix it. 5. Finally, I took it to another dealer who told me that the steering column would have to be changed and would cost about $1,300. When I objected, because I still am not sure if they can fix the problem, they told me that it might lock up. Well, I feel like that since the problem has been there since I bought the car, and they have tried unsuccessfully many times to fix it, they should fix it free. Of course they don't think so.
