| Steering linkage problems: i've had the same problem since i've owned my truck. my father, who also has a 2500hd, has the same problems as well. they lubed and greased the shaft at one point under warranty, but the problem has returned and is persistent in both of our trucks. both of our trucks are '04 models and i have less than 40k miles on mine. it feels like the steering wheel will come unattached from the linkage. not a very safe problem to have. i hope someone will take these complaints seriously. *jb | |||

| Intermediate shaft continues to rattle. was fixed under warranty once. vehicle is now out of warranty and cost $110 to lube the shaft, which isn't even guaranteed to fix the problem. many people have this problem with their trucks over and over. gm needs to handle the problem correctly. *jb | |||
