It happened repeatedly now while driving on freeway the steering would get sloppy at random moments and keeping the vehicle in its lane becomes difficult. I replaced tie rods inner & outer, upper/lower ball joints pitman arm and idler, swaybar links shocks/struts. I even had two different mechanics look at the steering components. Both said everything is in good shape. This only happens at freeway speeds. I bought this truck a month ago.

Now out of warranty,at 49,000 just replaced window regulator again,steering still a promblem but now steering box is shooting fluid out top seal on box,need to replace steering box at my cost. Still very worried about steering . . I am so disappointed with my Yukon,I will never but another cmc product again,no one seems to care but for $43,000 you would think they would. We use all chevy trucks in our fleet in my bussiness we are considering going foreign,not very proud of our american trucks.
While making a sharp turn, the driver heard a rattle noise and vibration. The turn could be as simple as making a right/left while driving slowly. The dealer has replaced the steering shaft twice and problem is still occurring. Please provide further information.
