While proceeding through a road curve to the right(only) at speeds above 35 mph, the power steering assist suddenly releases or gives way, resulting in over steering, and veering to the right. Problem manifests itself only in right turns above 35 mph, and only when steering wheel exceeds a rotation of 35-40 degrees.

Yukon 4WD

Major brake failure, in snow, on hill, brake pedal went to the floor after a loud rumble from the rear of the truck. Had master cylinder replaced, and 10 days later the exact samething happened, dealer installed another master cylinder. Test drove, blew that cylinder, then replaced the ABS modulator along with another master cylinder, and sent us on our way. It is now two weeks later and brake failure is being noticed again, truck is sitting currently at dealership. Also, the steering went very loose around September 1998, had that checked and repaired, at this time the steering is again getting loose.

At higher speeds when traveling over 50 mph the power steering releases and the Yukon wanders all over the road. The steering box has been replaced twice. The problem still exists.
