# LEAD OR PULL ON STRAIGHT AFTER MAKING TURN

#### MODELS AFFECTED: 1987-88 SKYHAWKS 1987-88 SKYLARKS 1987 SOMERSETS

Some 1987-88 Buicks may exhibit a slight lead/pull condition when the steering wheel is re.turned 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 windup 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.
