LEAD/PULL AFTER COMPLETION

ALL CHEVROLET DEALERS
Some 1987-88 models listed above may exhibit a slight lead/pull condition when the steering wheel is returned to a neutral or straight ahead position
after completion of a turning maneuver. This condition is always noted as being in the direction of the last turning maneuver (right turn - lead/pull right,
left turn - lead/pull left), and may vary in degree right to left. This occurs with the driver's hands off the steering wheel.
This lead/pull may be attributable to front spring wind-up caused by front strut mount(s) assembled with bearings exhibiting high frictional
characteristics.
Vehicles exhibiting this condition may be repaired by replacement of both front strut mounts with appropriate mounts available from GMSPO, following
applicable shop manual procedure.
Use applicable labor operation number and time.
