2006 Cadillac SRX Steering Problems

“When I turn on the car the gas gauge and the temp gauge do not move. The security and no traction warning lights stay on. When I drive the car on the street steering is sluggish, the trans rpms are high, sometimes the car goes to the left while driving. On the radio there it reads anti theft system hit button to clear. When I turn off the car the key will not come out of ignition and I have to use screwdriver to push a button in steering column to release it. …”

“Power steering fluid leak on driveway. We knew what it was because our other SRX had been having the same problem. Took into gmc service 3 or 4 times to have seals replaced. Both of our 2006 SRX's have the same problem. We keep steering fluid in our house just in case we need it.”

“Power steering fluid leaked out from steering rack. Independent mechanic replaced for $950 dollars. One year later rack replaced again under mechanics warranty. Power steering pump failed because in was run while low on fluid due to steering rack leak for $450 dollars should have been covered under warranty.”

“High pitched noise when car was started then whining noise. Took car to jeff schmitt Cadillac said power steering fluid was low. Said no leaks fluid found on driveway. Took car in to reichard gmc three times to have seals replaced because of leaking power steering fluid.”

“2006 Cadillac SRX turn signals burn out within months or replacement. I made 2 videos of me fixing it, put on YouTube with over 35, 000 views. That must mean there are lots of folks with this problem that don't know where to report it. While driving, the indicator flashes a bit faster than it should - the only clue it isn't working. You think other drivers know your intentions and they don't. This is dangerous. Mechanics have to pull the bumper, a bit of work, and want over $300 to change the bulb. Over and over again. This is the 5th time in 3 years. …”
