"General Motors is recalling about 1.5 million cars and minivans to repair a problem that makes steering difficult.
The recall covers 1996-98 Chevrolet Cavaliers, Pontiac Sunfires, Pontiac Trans Sports and Oldsmobile Silhouettes.
Others are 1996 Lumina minivans and 1997-98 Chevrolet Ventures and Pontiac Grand Prixs."
"... When a driver turns left, the pinion shaft is forced upward.
Over time, left turns become more difficult and steering more unpredictable, NHTSA said.
GM spokesman Jim Schell said the company was aware of 15 crashes possibly related to the problem. Three minor injuries were reported.
About 1.2 million of the vehicles are in the United States and about 300,000 elsewhere. "
De plus, un problème selon moi très grave sur les SAAB 900 1995
1995 SAAB 900
Problem: Moisture causes short circuit in airbag control unit, triggering airbags and seat belt pretensioners without a crash.
Fix: Replace control unit.
Number: 20,000.
Ouch!
