EXTERIOR LIGHTING
ONE EVENING WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY, MY HEADLIGHTS CUT OFF. AT FIRST I DIDN'T REALIZE IT UNTIL EVERYTHING JUST APPEARED DARKER THAN USUAL. I HAD TO SWITCH TO MY HIGH BEAMS TO FINISH THE TRAVEL TO MY DESTINATION. THIS HAS HAPPENED CONTINUOUSLY SINCE THEN. LIGHTS WILL COME ON AT THE START OF THE VEHICLE BUT SHUT DOWN IN NO SPECIFIC AMOUNT OF TIME. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THREE MECHANICS INCLUDING A GM DEALER AND THE VEHICLE LIGHTS STAYED ON DURING DIAGNOSIS. AS OF LAST NIGHT THE LIGHTS DID NOT COME ON AT ALL. I WILL BE RETURNING TO THE DEALERSHIP IN THE A.M IN HOPES THAT I MAY FIND A DIAGNOSIS AND THE SOLUTION. I CAN NO LONGER DRIVE MY VEHICLE AT NIGHT BECAUSE I HAVE ALREADY BEEN PULLED OVER BY THE POLICE FOR THIS ISSUE. *TR

STEERING
WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I TRIED MERGING ON TO A DIFFERENT LANE TO TAKE MY EXIT AND I REALIZED THAT THE STEERING ON MY VEHICLE WAS VERY STIFF. AS SOON AS I GOT OFF THE HIGHWAY I TRIED TURNING ON TO A SIDE STREET AND FOUND THAT STEERING THE VEHICLE WAS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN PARK FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS SINCE I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE IT. I WAITED ON TAKING IT TO A MECHANIC BECAUSE A FRIEND OF MINE SAID THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A RECALL ON THE POWER STEERING HOSE ON THIS VEHICLE. *TR
