Hydraulic Power Assist Steering System Problems of Suzuki Grand Vitara

While driving at any speed and hitting a bump in the road lost steering wheel control. Also, front tires were not aligned, and the inner part of the tires wore out prematurely.

After driving this vehicle for approx. One month we returned to the saleman and told him the steering didn't seem right. He drove the vehicle and said it was fine. We thought because we had never owned a 4-wheel drive vehicle that we just needed to get used to it. After this the steering constantly got worse and in June after several communications we took the car in for them to again check. They said that it was unsafe and we must leave it because the wheel might fall off. When we picked the vehicle up the steering still did not seem right. Only now you could tell it was the front left that was abnormal. We expressed this to them but they said it was fine. It never did seem to drive correctly, but like many things you get used to the imperfections and go on with your life. While driving home from work the front left hub assembly with wheel fell off the axile. Suzuki says this is not a covered repair because we have more then 36000 miles on the car. We feel this is truly a safety hazard and should be covered and noted since it could cause casulties if you were traveling at higher speeds. Thank you for your help.
