  1. Mine has been “repaired” twice now; first a bearing was replaced and the second time the entire steering column.

    Since the second repair we have lifted the Suburban and now GM wants to blame the modification for the failure. A failure which has been addressed twice prior to the lift and a failure which has a TSB for the same exact issue.

    Never again will I purchase a GM product.

  2. My 2015 Yukon steering wheel started knocking / popping at 35,000 miles. Kit mentioned above was installed. It lasted about 10,000 miles and popping started again. Another “improved” kit was installed at 50,000 miles. It lasted about 15,000 miles and popping started again. It goes back to the dealer again tomorrow. So far I haven’t been charged for the repairs. Not sure if I will continue buying GM. I had a 2005 Yukon the also had steering noise. In that case it was an out of spec spline in the steering shaft and was under a silent recall from what I understand. That means if you complain about it they will fix it.

  3. If fm has so many complaints why don’t they issue a recall my steering column locked up as I was driving and I didn’t make the turn almost hit a person who darted after a ball.
