The steering is making a noise when it make turns and is stiff when turning. The key will not come out of the ignition when I put the car in park. I have to put it into gear several times and back into park before it will come out.

The steering rack makes a pulsing noise around corners and the steering cuts in an out of power assist mode. This has happened since the vehicle was nearly new with 752 miles on it when I purchased it. There was a recall for several units, but this car was not included. I believe the recall extends to this car and probably several others as many people on the forums complain of the same issue. The car does it constantly around corners, and I would be happy to let and the federal safety agency investigator drive the car. This car is also making the clunk from the rear under the federal safety agency#10114259. I believe the vehicle should be recalled for the steering and I also believe the federal safety agency#10114259 should be a recall and not a tsb.

I started to hearing a scrubbing noise each time I turned the steering wheel. The noise has gotten louder. I called the dealership and asked if it could be related to the recall and was told no. Therefore, I took it to the dealership in greenacres, fl. After a two hour wait for testing, I was told the repair would be $1377.00. The service tech urged me to get the repair done asap before it worsens and the steering will be inoperable.

My steering wheel makes a squeaky noise whenever I make a turn. It started out only making the sound sporadically. It is now making the noise louder and every time I make a turn while driving and even when I turn the wheel while parked (I tested this to see if it would make the sound all the time). This has been happening since april 2018. As of the past two days, my key now gets stuck in the ignition when I cut the car off. The key will not turn all the way so that I can take it out.

The key will get stuck in the ignition daily and I have to restart engine and shift into reverse and then shift back into park for the key to be removed. This process has to be completed several times before the key can be removed from the ignition. And one more issue my steering wheel makes a weird whiny noise as I turn it. It sounds like whale songs. Took it to dealer ship but they didn't fixed my issue.

Purchased on 2/14/15-2 days after purchased car seat began squeaking & driver seat cushion frame replaced. 2 weeks later the car was having steering issues & popping noise while driving. The car was service on 3/10/15 & replaced propeller shaft flange nut, clean & apply thread adjusted rear camber on rr and rear toe adjusted rf camber & adjusted front toe. On 3/16/15, car was serviced due to cracking noise from underneath & the differential carrier drain or plug replacement was made; in addition added friction modifier to rear differential to reduce noise, on this repair attempt I was also given a new 2015 camaro which also had squeaking noise coming from the passenger which I informed mac haik of and they stated they needed to check all vehicles to see if this was an issue. On 3/27/15, car made knocking noise on stopping & take off the car was driving with gm tech brian who heard the same noise coming from the front of car. Per repair order it stated that the noise was not able to be duplicated, however was advised by techs that all suspension was taken down & placed back together, swooshing noise that I hear when backing up both were not able to be duplicated per mac haik. On 5/5/15, the radiator hose came loose per the repair order clamps were not placed on properly. I have all records of speaking with gm reps as well as mac haik reps and to no avail was I able to get help. I have an attorney as of today and gm was giving one final attempt to make the car right on 5/21/15 for all issues with the car: swooshing noise, cluncking noise while driving, wobbling noise when driving at 50mph or more, clicking noise when putting car in gear, car smells of overheat, on left turn heard a loud spring popping noise from car.

Picked up car after being in back and forth all week at lucas chevy,in nj. The car was driven less than 40 miles after they replaced the steering rack. Picked up on wed 8/8/12 after car was supposed to be done on 8/7. I had to bring the car back on 8/9/12 as the car was pulling and steering wheel off center. They never aligned the front end! I had to drop car back on 8/9/12 again that night as steering was binding and shuddering again!the dealer called me that friday 8/10 and said the pick up the car everything was fine ,it was low on fluid. When I checked the fluid on wed 8/8 the fluid was clear as power steering fluid is. When I picked the car back up on 8/10/12 I had to bring back again because p/s reservoir was soaked with fluid/I also saw they switched p/s fluid to transmission fluid!the service manager who didn't even know where the reservoir was or how to remove the engine cover wiped it clean and said have a nice day. On 8/12/12 while trying to back in driveway the steering locked and is now clunking with a metallic grind and also the brake fluid reservoir was wet with brake fluid again after cap was replaced two months ago! I also noticed they replaced both outer tie rod ends without telling me or putting it on the paperwork!the car is so dangerous it had to be towed to lucas chevrolet again!they are being dictated on what to do by gm legal as I had enough and filed a lemon law claim!its been to 3 dealers and has had a new steering column, intermediate shaft, angle sensor, SRS coil, new tie rod ends and that just in the steering alone! What right is right,they did fix the clunking in the rear from the drive shaft on the first try!

Just picked up car. It was in shop for two days. Car had a grinding and squealing in the steering. Gm technical assistance told them the disconnect shaft to see where noise was coming from. Dealer had to replace angle sensor and SRS coil for the air bag. Pick up car and was like new again for about 35 mile. I was backing into drive way and heard a snap from the steering. Now the noise is back and steering is wobbly and clunking along with a strong smell of power steering fluid! I have to take it back tomorrow for their 4th attempt, next step lemon lawyer!
