    Steering rattle both felt and heard. Returned to dealer 5/18/2006 mileage 18,310. Intermediate steering shaft lube. Problem returned months later. Wrote to gm, they said a new shaft was available but i would have to pay to have it installed. I asked if there was chance of steering failure or extreme tire wear, they said no studies have been done and would not predict if a steering failure would/would not occur. *tr
