Description of the problem | Power steering goes out when turning to the left. The dealer states the no problem can be found. Our power steering goes out intermittenly every since we got this cavalier. The dealer has said that they could never duplicate the problem and hence could not fix the problem. The loss of steering has become so bad that i will not allow my wife to use this car. I will not let anyone use this car until the steering( a safety issue) is resolved.*ak |
