Well I tried to get my Monte to the dealer for the power steering hose RECALL. I was busy all day last fri. So I said I'll do it 1st thing Monday morning ! I have a part time job working overnights. 11 to 7. I pull into the garage and park. After i get up this afternoon. I had to run to the store. As i'm pulling into the garage. I notice oil on the ground. OH OH . Check the trans fluid..It's ok. Check the power steering. Nothing in there. So thats why it felt like that this morning. I thought because it was -11 degrees. and I had the traction control on. So now In the morning I'm off to the dealer to get this fixed. Just waited one day too long. *&^%$ I should have done this fri. But Nooooo! Other things were more important.

I tried to go to the "Edmunds" link that was provided, but nothing showed up. This should be a good link to see any TSB's for your vehicle:

Bring a book, it can take a good amount of time haha
Also make sure the car's alignment is right after you leave. When they did the work to my father's Monte, his steering wheel was a little off when he left.
