Inspection (Steering Shaft)

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 20 other vehicles, including the 2001 Pontiac Firebird, 2001 Pontiac Bonneville, 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, 2001 Chevrolet Impala, and 2001 Chevrolet Camaro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Inspect steering shaft for sheared injection plastic. See Figure. If injection plastic is sheared, replace steering shaft. Check steering shaft runout by installing a dial indicator at lower end of steering shaft, and then rotating steering wheel. If runout exceeds.062" (1.59 mm), replace steering shaft.
