safety recall question
Did anyone get a letter in the mail about the lower pinion bearing or pinion steering gear assembly in a 96 that is on recall? I just got my 96 not to long ago and this just came in the mail this week.

Re: safety recall question
You need to take it in. The problem is the pinion bearing which MAY come apart and cause steering problems. If the bearing comes apart you will not be able to turn left or have great difficulty doing so.

Re: safety recall question
Weird, so I just take it into the GM dealer or what? I used to have a 96' cavalier untill i totalled it so maybe they think I still have it....

Re: safety recall question
Does it pull to one side when you are braking?

Re: safety recall question
Nope no pulling... the steering creeks when i turn the wheel like when i am parkin the car... and i get these shutters when i am accelerating... the car wobbles quickly from side to side at around 20 mph then goes away and it happens again at around 40 mph.... My brakes finally work like a swiss watch...
