Since vehicle was one year old it has had steering vibration and noise. Buick dealers and head quarters have denied giving me any buletin or advisory info on the problem. They did however give me an extened warranty so I would make no further complaints unless a new problem arose. I only want to know if a solution has been found, if there are advisories on the steering, and how to proceed with them. Buick has been of no help.
