Description of the problem | In february, i had taken my 1997 chevy cavalier to the dealer for the bearing recall in feb of 2003, after that i had problems when turning left my steering gets hard and have no control, i had the rack changed, in july of 2003 it worked fine up till sat. Jan 10, 2004 i had no control when turning left and right it was like i had no power steering. And it still does it, and im afraid that it could injure myself and my children. I saw the recall that gm was doing and thought that this could be my problem as well. *la |
