Pontiac Grand Prix Steering Rack And Pinion Safety Report | July 28, 2005



Reported on July 28, 2005


GRAND PRIX GTP 1999 HAS A RACK AND PINION PROBLEM THE STEERING WOULD ACT LIKE THERE WAS NO POWER TO IT WHEN TURNING LEFT- RIGHT TURN WORKED OK. THERE WAS A RECALL ON 1998 GRAND PRIX THAT DID THE EXACT SAME THING. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR WOMEN DRIVERS ESPECIALLY. THEY WOULD NOT EXPECT TO SUDDENLY HAVE A PROBLEM MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN. ONCE THIS HAPPENS IT STAYS THAT WAY TILL YOU REPLACE THE RACK AND PINION. *NM
