problem #1

Sep 012002

Suburban 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 95,000 miles
While driving slowly or fast, at different times, and not every single time, turning to the right around a curve or turning a corner the steering holds the turn and then all of a sudden lets go of that hold. I can correct it by slightly turning the steering wheel left and then back into the turn. Sometimes it holds the second time and sometimes it lets go again. This is repeated until the end of the curve or turn. Steering gear, pitman arm, steering pump all replaced and problem still is present.
