Recently reported STEERING problems on 2007 GMC Acadia

Our vehicle only has 86k miles and the rack and pinion is leaking heavily. the dealer stated that this is a known issue, but it is out of warranty. sometimes, the power steering cuts out and it is very difficult to move the steering wheel. we believe that this imposes serious risk while driving and the problem can happen at any time. there is no repeatable scenario to demonstrate the failure. it is random. the front engine cover also leaks oil heavily. the dealer also stated this is a known issue. this could result in rapid engine oil loss and engine failure while driving. i took the vehicle to the dealer yesterday for inspection. unfortunately no pictures were taken, but their two technicians inspected the vehicle and agreed on the known issues. the service advisor also agreed on the known issues. i inquired about gm helping with these known issues, but the dealer stated that their district aftersales manager was not kind or helpful and would revert to general motor's online goodwill calculator. he accessed the online system which determined my vehicle was out of warranty ...

Power steering doesn't work in a low speed or when ur using the gas it gets really hard when ur driving on the roads specially when ur tuning in a stop sing or light is dangerous i almost get in a accident i'm glad de other car notes that's and get away

I was driving home and as i was making a slow turn into my driveway the power steering all of the sudden cut out and i slid off the road and into a ditch. as i have browsed the internet there are thousands of reports of similar happenings.

My power steering is leaking. some recalls have been made on other vehicles but not mine.

The sunroof leaks and causes electrical problems. suddenly while driving the power steering gears, rack, and bushings are defective causing the power steering to go out during low speeds. tried having it replaced under the recall, however, 9 months later the same thing happened and nobody wants to fix it or allows for the dealer to replace it again. this is a major safety feature that should never be acceptable! also, the transmission already had to be replaced and is going out again. the manufacture made a faulty vehicle and should be held accountable for these parts and the labor not to mention the inconvenience of having to fight with the dealer and gm to get the problem corrected.

Anytime i turn thepower steering is gone at low speeds. i have searched the problem and almost every acadia owner has had this problem.

I experienced the issue while driving in the city about 25 mph. i lost power steering while turning and almost hit another car. i have received a recall letter from gm and i scheduled an appointment with the dealership. they required my vin number to check and make sure my car was covered under the recall and assured me that it was. i then took my car to the dealer and after they had it for 4 hours, i received a call stating they won't cover it because i exceeded the mileage by 10,000 miles. the dealership then attempted to make me pay a diagnostic fee. i contacted gm and they are not willing to do anything to help. i have owned my car for 2 years and they are just now notifying me about the recall. the dealership was only willing to give me a 5% discount off of $1084. i have expressed my feeling on this and explained that i just received the letter and that the car is 8 years old, why did it take them so long to contact the customers. they really expect a 8 year old car to have less then the 150,000 mile ...

Steering locks up when driving down the road causing you to lose all control of your vehicles steering. we almost hit traffic light and hit by a semi on the interstate. also transmission failed and will loose all power when your driving down the road. this vehicle is dangerous to drive and is a very common problem. this needs to be recalled or a class action lawsuit needs to be opened. this vehicle only has 88,000 miles on it and is a hazard to drive. *tr

Twice, in a matter of 24 hours, as we were pulling out of our driveway, the power steering stopped abruptly. fortunately we were moving slowly in our driveway at the time. following each incident the car was put in park and there was a loud screeching sound when stepping on the gas pedal. just as quickly as both problems occurred, they disappeared. we have also been dealing with wiring issues. sometimes the speakers work sometimes they don't. sometimes the warning systems (i.e back-up alarm, keys in ignition, low fuel level, door ajar, etc.) sounds and other times they don't. *tr
