Two problems related to steering noise have been reported for the 2013 GMC Sierra. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Tl- the contact owns a 2013 GMC Sierra. The contact stated that the steering wheel was extremely loose and that \when the vehicle went over a bump in the road, there was an abnormal noise heard from the steering column to the steering wheel. The contact was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 11v339000 (steering). The manufacturer provided no solution and the contact was to either take the vehicle to the dealer or a repair shop for further inspection and diagnosis. The approximate failure mileage was 20,000. Dyd.
I took my truck in for a a grinding noise the steering rack was making when turning at low speeds, the dealership said it was a power steering gear, common problem and they would fix it because it was under warranty, they solved the problem. The issue is that the re-manufactured part they used leaks, took it back a second time, they said it was a bad seal and they would replace the seal. Had to take it in a third time because it leaked again, so they said they would replace the rack again, come to find out, the last time they had it they replaced the steering rack again, so this is the third steering rack they have put on a 2013 truck, and it still leaks, they game me a service bulletin that says it is normal for it to leak from that area and it goes away in a few months, also the service bulletin says a drip from there does not warrant a active leak, I say a drip on the ground is a active leak. I live in texas and by state law a vehicle cannot pass state safety inspection with any leaks on the power steering system. How do I know that this leak will even go away? my truck won't even pass inspection later this year when I have to go because of this leak. I believe this is a safety concern, they should not be re issuing such a important part to the steering system and it leak, I have followed up with gm and said I want a brand new on put on and no leaks, it didn't leak when I bought it, it shouldn't leak now. I have lost faith in the reliability of the vehicle because they have replace the same part three times( a key part to the steering system), it leaks, and all three times the part was re-manufactured( used), I have no idea how many miles are on that part, they should be using brand new ones and no leaks.
