The federal government is investigating a possible steering defect that
could affect 714 000 General Motors vehicles.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said it has received
357 complaints that the steering in the vehicles locked up or lost power. In
some cases, the vehicles became difficult to steer while making left turns.
The vehicles involved were built between Jan. 1, 1996, and Oct. 31, 1997,
NHTSA said. They are: the 1996-98 Buick regal, the 1996-98 Buick Century;
1996-98 Chevrolet Lumina and Monte Carlo; the 1996-97 Oldsmobile Cutlass
Supreme; and the 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue.
GM spokesman Jim Schell said the company cooperating with the
investigation. NHTSA's vehicle investigation can lead to a recall.
