problem #2

Silverado 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 29,000 miles
I noticed at about 29,500 miles that the power steering was not functioning normally at park or low idle speeds. Also there is a clunking in the steering column at low speeds and while turning.

problem #1

Aug 152005

Silverado 4WD 8-cyl Diesel

  • Automatic transmission
  • 1,500 miles
The power steering stops working at low speed or parked. I have contacted GM several times regarding this and they say there is no fix at this time. Dealership has witnessed and documented the problem. I feel this is becoming a safety issue, as it gets worse..ie. Make common, every day.
