Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Intermitten drop in steering to the right, mostly during corners. about a quarter turn of the steering wheel. was told to me by a mechanic that gm has known about this and there is only one part from the dealer dealing with it. no aftermarket item. it was told to me that it is a speed sensor on the steering column that governs the speed sensor for the power steering. durning a turn at almost any speed, the steering drops out a quarter of a turn. quite a shock to someone doing 60 miles per hour on a busy freeway.
