I have a 2012 Malibu, 4 cyl, LTZ that has a tremor in the steering when turning corners. Anybody else having this problem?

Yes, I had this problem on my 2007 malibu. Thought they would fix it by now. Take it to warranty repair. They replaced something in the steering linkage.

I also encourage you to take the vehicle in for an inspection. A certified technician will be able to offer a diagnosis after a physical inspection.

Please keep us posted. If you have additional questions, please feel free to contact me.
