I have had ongoing problems with my 2003 GMC Yukon. It started in September of 2004 with my rear air not working, it was inoperable; and, a popping noise in my steering, the steering felt loose. The rear air was temporarily fixed in October of 2004 but continues to be a problem now in September of 2005, one year later. I've never really had rear air since I bought the vehicle, it works occasionally. I still have no rear air and vehicle has been in the shop more than 7 times for this problem. It took until January of 2005 to fix the steering problem. I've also had problems with my speedometer, which quit working in December of 2004 and the part was on back order and I had to take my vehicle in and leave for the dealership to send the speedometer to California for reprogramming, this problem was fixed in January of 2005.
I own a 2003 GMC Yukon xl 1500 that has a continuing problem with the intermediate steering section making a clunking sound and as the sound gets worse, the steering becomes loose. The problem started occurring shortly after the first 12000 miles. The dealer lubricated it a number of times until the warranty ran out. At 62000 miles for routine maintenance service, the dealer said a replacement part was available that would correct the problem. After arguing with the dealer, he agreed to replaced the part if I paid for the labor . The problem returned at about 85000 miles. The dealer lubricated again. Today at 102000 miles the noise and looseness is back. Could not win the argument this time. Had to pay $213. 00 for the latest version of the replacement. I think gm is avoiding the problem and should have issued a recall. They are well aware that this was a poor engineering design.
Problems with steering knuckle/column since purchase. Dealer well aware of issues with this problem. Steering part was replaced which only solved problem with looseness and noise temporarily. Second repair "exercised" the steering knuckle which was not effective. Steering feels loose and noise, knocking when turning steering wheel or going over bumpy terrain.
Steering system malfuncationed while making a turn. Steering was very loose, it felt like driving 'on ice" which could have caused a crash. Dealer could not determine caus eof problem. Please provide further information.
