When driving at highway speeds of 65 mph, and hitting a bump vehicle will veer to left or right. Hard to control. Took vehicle to dealer, who lined up front end and adjusted gear box, did not remedy situation. Before repair was done, the steering wheel was rigid, but after the service it became very loose.

Steering had excessive play, viring either way, the steering grear box needed to be replace. John l. Sullivan sold us the truck in that condition. When questioned about the play in the steering, they said nothing was wrong. However once I lost control of the truck I then knew that there had to be something wrong. So I took it directly to woodard Chevrolet, (the cloest dealership) were they repaired it once the part were available.

Chevrolet keeps giving the dealer the runaround keeping me waiting with a vehicle that, to me is unsafe.
