I am the owner of a 1997 Venture Chevrolet van that I purchased in may of 1997. I have several concerns after reviewing your web site. First, I just charged on my credit card almost $2,000 (December 2003) to fix the rack and pinion steering and to replace the power steering pump. There was a recall in November 2002 that I was not notified for the rack and pinion. Second, I have just learned that there is a recall related to the power pump steering. It is not by chance that both of these items have malfunctioned on my vehicle. I have experienced the exertion on more pressure to make turns and this is some of the issues that are related to the recall. I can not give a specific date of the incidents when the issues first started but it is fair to say it started sometime in 2003. What procedures should I follow to get these charges taken off of my credit card? since I paid for or is charged to my credit card, I can not get the repairs free. If you would like to have a copy of bills - please let me know. Also, I had an issue with the leaking of break fluid in 2001. After viewing your web site it appears that this could have been caused by another defect. I do not think it is just by chance the three major repairs that I have paid for on my vehicle are recalls from your organization.

Vehicle became extremely difficult to steer to the left at highway speed. It was somewhat intermittent but very pronounced during parking. Replaced pump and rack/pinion.
