Last year I think in October my car making noise and shaking a little. I planned to have it check but before I have it check I got an accidence. I was driving straight on freeway on a rainy day with cars in front, cars behind me then some thing happened so quick my car spinning two three times and hitting the barricate on 205 freeway bridge. The repair shop said I had a hydroplane. It maybe my mistake that I was going a little fast on a rainy day but between 60 - 65 mph it is still normal for most cars. I think there was a problem with the steering system that may lead to my accident.
After my car was fixed the front wheel noise was louder and the back wheels slide when I made quick turns. I brought it back to the repair shop 4 times, tire shops two times, replace all four new tires even they were still good tires, brought to Les Schwab to check shocks and suspension. Finally the insurance company paid to replace the steering rack "I think" for about $750. Now the front wheel noise is still there, I can hear it, the colder the louder it is.
I hope GM or some one take a good look at the steering problems of these cars and make sure they are still safe to drive. Thanks
