The steering wheel abruptly pulled to the right. When I tried to steer the vehicle back on the road, the steering did not respond well. The steering was out of control. This caused my vehicle to do a 180 and go off the road. The vehicle subsequently flipped 4 or 5 times. Also the airbags did not deploy even though there was front end damage.
1998 GMC Jimmy steering complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 16 of 16, newest first, as owners wrote them.
When you let go of steering wheel, car goes immediately right. The first time the dealer did a wheel alignment and it was okay for a while but then it did it again and we took it back. The second time we took it back to dealer they charged us for a wheel alignment and said we had "curbed" the vehicle but we had not. Now it is doing the same thing again and we do not want to have to pay for another wheel alignment.
Power steering performance is poor, vehicle wanders on straight road at speeds below 70 MPH, unable to rectify.
Security systems operates erratically.
Power steering adjuster plug on the pressure hose failed. Yh
Steering wheel pulls drastically to the right, can not take hands off steering wheel or the car will run off the road.
