problem #1

Nov 282003

Firebird 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 43,000 miles
When making a U turn steering locked up and I was not able to turn the steering wheel. I had to stop and place gear shift in park and then move back to drive before the wheel would turn. The engine did not die. This is the first time this has ever happened in the 1 1/2 that I have owned this car. Alyse ecker.
