1 Steering Gear Box Shaft Pitman problem of the 2002 Chevrolet Impala

Failure Date: 01/05/2004

My wife bought a 2002 Impala and we both love the car. But recently it has had a clunking in the steering column. I am a mechanic and know that it could be a faulty intermediate shaft. Why is there no recall for this problem? I have researched these archives and have seen many similar complaints. Even some failures. Why are dealers not willing to do any repairs for the clunking noise?.
