Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On april 30,2005 while operating the 2001 chevrolet suburban the power steering pump pully shaft failed. the steering assist was immediatly stopped. the vehicle was shut off before the shaft left the housing which could result in the pulley coming off and causing severe damage, including but not limited too, front brake line severing and loss of front braking. gm notice 05v00500 is suspiciously simular in nature, but gm is accepting no responsibility at this time. file #1-332-115018 to gm is under review. the potentially hazardous nature of the failure has prompted me to contact the nhtsa.
