Chevrolet Equinox Steering Safety Report | Dec 21, 2012
Reported on Dec 21, 2012
| THE STEERING WHEEL WILL STICK WHEN TRAVELING IN A STRAIGHT LINE. WHEN YOU GO TO MAKE A SLIGHT CORRECTION, IT WILL TAKE EXTRA EFFORT TO MOVE THE WHEEL DUE TO THIS STICKING . THIS IS THE THIRD TIME I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER. THE FIRST TIME WAS CORRECTED BY REPLACING THE STEERING GEAR. SECOND TIME WAS TO REPLACE THE REPLACEMENT STEERING GEAR DUE TO A CODE ERROR. IT IS NOW BACK INTO THE DEALER DUE TO THE SAME STICKING AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS USUALLY HAPPENS AT HIGHER HIGHWAY SPEEDS, BUT IT HAPPENED AT A LOWER SPEED (35 MPH) DURING A SNOW STORM AND CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO SLIDE SLIGHTLY SIDEWAYS. NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED, BUT I BELIEVE IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME. *TR | |
