| Steering had excessive play, viring either way, the steering grear box needed to be replace. john l. sullivan sold us the truck in that condition. when questioned about the play in the steering, they said nothing was wrong. however once i lost control of the truck i then knew that there had to be something wrong. so i took it directly to woodard chevrolet, (the cloest dealership) were they repaired it once the part were available. | |||

| This vehicle pulls to the right and wanders. it has had a frontend allignment 3 times, tires rotated, the gearbox has been adjusted and replaced. the dealer which is woking on it (seberger chevrolet in centralia il). they say that they have 4 or 5 like this and no one knows how to correct it not even chevrolet. within 3000 miles this vehicle has been in the shop 4 times. i know longer feel safe driving this vehicle and know no one will do anything about it. chevrolet keeps giving the dealer the runaround keeping me waiting with a vehicle that, to me is unsafe. | |||

| My power steering system has always made a noise when i make left or right hand turns. i have reported it to the dealership on two occasions, but they never found anythin wrong with it, and now it is not under warranty. they said that they couldn't duplicate it but it happens every time it is driven, so i don't see how they could've missed it. also, the recliner lever on the driver side seat broke off at the metal after the warranty had already expired so i guess i'm out of luck with that. *ak | |||
