The contact owns a 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix. The contact stated that the steering wheel makes a clicking noise when it is turned. The dealer stated that the steering column metal was failing and the steering column rod will need to be replaced. The manufacturer acknowledged the steering failure with the GMC pick up trucks; however, they would not acknowledge that the failure also existed in the passenger vehicles. The vehicle exceeds the 36,000 mile warranty; therefore, the manufacturer would not assist. The part for the repair costs $107. The failure mileage was 30,000. Updated 05/19/08.
