It is very hard to make a left turn after a stop as if there is no power steering. There is no problem with making a right turn.

I own 2 1999 Cadillac Deville's. one in NY & one in fl. Both vehicles had the exact same problem. The power steering pump had to be replaced in both cars because of a grinding and difficulty in steering. This seems to be due to a defect that should have been recalled by General Motors, and I should be reimbursed my cost of about $1000. For both repairs.

Car makes a groaning noise when turning left to right. Sounds like it's coming from the front end steering system. Also, it sounds like metal to metal. Took it to the dealer and they could not identify the problem. They said to wait until it became worse.

Metal to metal sound and or groaning-moaning when straighten wheel up after turning hard to right or left and when parking. GM has yet to fix and in fact they have a service bulletin to dealers saying this is a steering problem and do not attemt to fix at this time. Car still under factory warranty.

Noise was coming from steering while driving. Dealer notified. The noise was coming from the steering system when the vehicle hits bumpy surfaces. The steering gear was replaced to correct the noise.
