I own a 2004 Malibu sedan lt (80k) and a 2004 Malibu maxx lt (50k). Both cars have the clunking noise in the rack and pinion. I am issuing this complaint because I was told by the dealer that chevorlet has no repair to eliminate the noise. I consider any part of my steering a very safety sensitive issue. If it were only one car I would not be as concerned. But I believe it should be corrected (on gm's nickel of course) ASAP!.
