Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Steering on my 97 tahoe has for many years 'twitched' when driving at a slow right turn such as on ramp to freeway or slow curve in the road. it never does it on left turns, only right. the steering wheel suddenly pops to the right and only for a second. it then repeats that if the turn on the road is continually to the right. if anyone other than me drives the tahoe, it will surprise them and cause and accident. ive read about this problem in many forums online as well as here at the nhtsa site. gm should be recalling this dangerous steering problem immediately.
