Cobalt 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 19,520 miles
: the contact stated while making right hand turns there is a binding and vibration felt in the steering wheel. The problem is getting progressively worse. The dealership determined there was an engineering design flaw possibly with the rack and pinion. The dealership also informed the contact there was currently not a fix for this, but the manufacturer was working on finding a remedy for this problem.
