Auto trans, no remote start.The right front tire got slick fast and had dipping in the sides of the tread. I had the tires changed and the steering in not better. The car seams to wounder around untill you get over 65mph, the faster it goesthe better it drives. At times I think power is only going to one wheel.

I would suggest purchasing a vehicle history report from Carfax, and/or the like. You will use the VIN for identification. You will probably be surprised.

But you should also get copies of the previous service orders...if they will give them to you.

I had a similar situation with an Olds dealer. Had severe tire wear and a "shimmy" at 60-70 mph. Went through 14 tires in 23,000 miles. The last several visits to the dealer were not "recorded" because I THOUGHT I could trust them (first name basis with the GM, SM, and Front End & Suspension Supervisor). It became apparent the problem was not be resolved, so I was discussing the issue with a Olds Customer Service Supervisor, on the phone, and discovered the last 5 visits were not recorded. A VERY SERIOUS AND HEAVY discussion led to some serious charges and ultimately a change of service to a Cadillac dealer, who resolved the tire wear and front end shimmy (with support from some GM engineering people).

Good luck...sounds like you have a real problem (not trying to be a bummer, here).

Thanks, I had a run in with a GMC dealer like that on my 05 GMC4x4.
Tire noise when turning and bad tire wear. They also had to reprogram it afew times because it would not take the gas and go when I wanted it to.
I ended up trading the truck.
