Steering very rough and bumpy turning both ways. Noticed in july,2001 fixed by dealer 8/20/2001 by replacing steering gear rack. Same problem back again in november 2001 at about 22,600 mi.
Don't recall exact dates or milage of failure, but steering rack was replaced twice by manufacture at about 13,000 and 20,000 miles. Both times experinced hard steering to left, abnormal sounds, and slight jerks transmitted through steering wheel during turning. Now have the exact same problem with my 1998 pontiac grand prix which is having the steering rack replaced at a cost of about $1,000. On the grand prix bearings and other components actually fell out of the rack assembly on my driveway. The grand prix was purchased used about a year ago and currently has about 62,000 miles on it. I have never had to replace this component on any other vehicle I have owned. Is this a common problem for these vehicles?
While traveling at low speeds, approximately 5 MPH, there is vibration in steering wheel and a "clunking" noise coming from vehicle. Dealership has determined that steering shaft had to be replaced. *note: part needed is on back order and will be unavailable until mid-november 2001. Please provide any additional information / attachments.
