NHTSA complaint: 2006 GMC ENVOY — STEERING
NOTICED A NO TRACTION IN MY CLUSTER ONE MONTH BEFORE THE ACCIDENT. WHEN I TURNED THE SUV OFF THE LIGHT WOULD GO AWAY. I HAD A CODE CHECK ON IT AND HAD CODES FOR MY ABS. SENSORS WHERE CHECKED AND TESTED. NO FAULT IN THE SENSORS. THE DAY OF THE ACCIDENT AS I WAS PASSING THE PERSON AND SWITCHING LANES THERE WAS A RED LIGHT AHEAD I APPLIED MY BREAKS AND THE NO TRACTION CAME ON AS I HIT A SMALL PATCH OF ICE. TRACTION DID NOT KICK ON OR ABS LEADING ME OUT TO M-24 FROM A NEIGHBORHOOD ROAD GETTING HIT ON THE DRIVER SIDE FENDER BY A CHEVY TRACKER. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH AND TALKING WITH ASE TECH'S. A DEFECTIVE STEERING POSITIONING SENSOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND KNOW IN THE 360 MODELS TO GO BAD. AFTER THE REPLACEMENT NO PROBLEM MILES AT 100097. *TR
