“I spoke with a larry at the NHTSA back in february of this year. Faxed him a copy of the bill I had for the power steering in my Yukon Xl says there was going to be more investigating and this recall for the power steering may be expanded to my truck..the 1500 series but I haven't heard anything. Just a funny thing that this is exactly what happened to me the power steering cut out in the middle of a turn, but it doesn't concern the 1500.”

NHTSA complaint #10141432, filed 2005-11, 90,000 miles

“The power steering pump failed while driving in the mountains. Fortunately not while on the curvy, side of the mountain roads. The vehicle required towing down the mountain to the nearest Gmc dealer. The dealer replaced the pump and charged $200. Much inconveience was incurred, we had to be retrived from the mountains(65 miles), taken to the dealer by others to retrive vehicle, etc. There's a recall(id 05v005000) of 98,221 of this exact model and year for the exact same failure. …”
