| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: When i purchased my cadillac, it had 22,000 miles on it. there was a "bumping" in the steering when i turned at slow speeds. i complained about it on several occasions. 1. the dealer repaired a broken motor mount, didn't fix it. 2. the dealer changed the rack & pinion, didn't fix it. 3. the dealer changed the tie rod ends, didn't fix it. 4. an independent mechanic tightened up loose bolts in the front end, didn't fix it. 5. finally, i took it to another dealer who told me that the steering column would have to be changed and would cost about $1,300. *jb when i objected, because i still am not sure if they can fix the problem, they told me that it might lock up. well, i feel like that since the problem has been there since i bought the car, and they have tried unsuccessfully many times to fix it, they should fix it free. of course they don't think so. *jb |
