We have a 2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette. In November, 2005 we started having trouble with steering vibration and severe pulling to the right. It turns out a left tie rod end was failing. The mechanic told us that it was close to failure and if it did we would get in an accident. We got that fixed but now we have the same problem and it turns out that the same tie rod on the right side has an end that is failing.
