Description of the problem | Took it in to clear code from lift gate recall. Walked out with slip that says it needs a new power steering gear assembly at $1900. Very quick google search says this is common problem with this vehicle, buick enclave and chevy traverse of this year. People report this causes difficulty steering and loss of steering while in motion. Upon reflection, there have been times steering has gone bizarre but i chaulked it up to road conditions (snow/sleet). This vehicle only has 55,000 miles on it and only driven 6 months of the year. Several people complain of this steering gear assembly repair (sometimes more than once) and the loss of steering ability at times. Please investigate. |
