When i went to get my oil changed the other day, they also did something call an "intermediate steering shaft lubrication" While it did take the shaking out of my steering wheel, as soon as I started the truck I could hear a noise that wasn't there when I brought it in. The noise gets louder when I turn the steering wheel. When I later called back, they told me it was making this noise when I pulled it in. When I went back a couple of days later to have it checked, I was the only one in the county that could hear the noise now. They would not even investigate anything and told me they heard nothing unusual. I own a GMC Sierra and was wondering if GMC would help me get this issue looked into even though there service technicians would not. It seems funny to me that when on the phone, everyone claimed that my vehicle was making this noise when I pulled it into their garage but two days later, no one can hear it but me.

I have '04 and '05 Chevy pick ups that made a noise when turning. The steering shaft had to be greased. It took care of the problem.
Take it to a different dealership to have the service dept look at it, especially if it's warranty.
Whenever I have problems that cannot be resolved, I contact the GM headquarters. You can get that info on their web site and either call or email them. They are super helpful.

there is 3 thing you may have:
1 power steering fluid soak on the power steering belt
2 low power steering fluid and the pump made that noise
3 loose steering linkage.
recipe : take the vehicle to a different shop.

Noise is probably coming from the power steering pump,General Motors has a customer service number its toll free,If you have problems you can call them and they will resolve the issues you are having with the service dept.

too bad you did not have a recording of the talk on the phone.
the company is not likely to be of much help to you but you should look into hidden warranties and recalls .
this might be something that you can have fixed for free.
the auto club has lists of the recalls and warranty fixes the dealer and the company don't mention . crazy as it is they are there but they don't let anyone know about them .

properly I even have went to everywhere however the broker in the previous and it unquestionably expenditures you greater. The broker deals with their style autos popular and get notified of any updates. The broker is the greater effectual decision, maximum in all possibility they'll credit the analysis fee in direction of the fix in any case

Sounds like they cannot figure out the problem. If the vehicle is under warranty, contact General Motors direct. If it is not under warranty, take it somewhere else.

I have worked at dealerships. Don't give up or give in if you truly have a sound that wasn't present before this work was done.
