Clunking in steering again. Dealership said the steering box 'new improved" went out and said that the noise is coming in from inside of the box. They don't understand why it keeps going out. This is the third steering box. Malibu only has 34,500 miles. Dealership tightened steering while waiting for the new box. The car would not straighten from minor corrections. If you turn to the left it would keep going left and if you corrected it would go to toward the opposite side into oncoming vehicles. Returned to dealership told them it was an accident waiting to happen and couldn't drive it. They finally gave me a rental car. Approximate date 8 of 06.
