Tie rod ends had to be replaced at about 15K miles, again at about 25K miles. Car now has 64K miles and needs to be replaced again. Also, I have had to have the steering shaft lubricated and/or replaced 4 times due to the clicking/grinding noise caused by defective shafts.

Steering column and tie rods need to be replaced in our 2001 Pontiac Bonneville with only 39000 miles and no accident.

The tie rod assembly failed, which caused the vehicle to jerk. The vehicle shuddered before the replacement of the tie rod eads. There was play in T he tie rod eads, which allowed the front wheels to move freely without turning the steering wheel. Scc
