WELCOME Tom-

Bummer you are having problem w/steering wheel/etc.

Did you read this ? https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/lounge-10/gm-sues-steering-column-manufacturer-26818/

(Knock on wood), my 08 Panel is doing good..

 

There are better steering units being made now, you just have to keep replacing it until you get a good one. I had 3 rattling ones in the first year, but the fourth has been great for months now.
