problem #2

(reported on)

Sierra 1500

  • miles
Steering wheel jerks sharply at times as if is restricted. My sister had a surburban this year model that did the same thing. They took their auto in several times but never would do this. It is so random that it would be hard to find for the service dept. They just sold their vehicle. Any info from GMC on this problem? our truck did not do this until after the warranty expired.
