2009 Chevrolet TRAVERSE Steering Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	983683
Internal NHTSA #	10514050
Manufacurer	General Motors LLC
Brand	CHEVROLET
Model	TRAVERSE
Model Year	2009
File date	31/01/13
Component	STEERING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The traverse will not turn at certain speeds without excessive pressure to the steering wheel. I can't park in tight spaces, making turns greater than 20 degrees are increasingly difficult. Random turns are also difficult, like changing lanes on the freeway etc. The pressure needed to make these turns on the steering wheel can be overwhelming to the average driver. I am concerned that this may cause an accident. Gm refuses to address the problem, and says that it is electrical and must be fixed at my expense even though the car is still under warranty. This seems like a power steering problem, yet gm says the steering is electrical.
