Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Steering shaft was replaced in august 2004 because of technical service bulletin (tsb) about binding. in march 2005 the steering shaft broke in half, causing a loss of control with steering of the vehicle. the defective part was replaced along with a new steering coil. the part was still binding and slipping as it was the first time when fixed in 2004. a diagnostic test was done in april 2005, and chevrolet told me it was my brakes. i took it to another dealer, and they said my brakes were fine. problem needed to be fixed before someone got hurt the next time it breaks. *ak
