I have a 99 Buick regal GS. I had a mass air flow sensor and supercharger belt and 2 pulleys that where bad so I had them fixed by a mechanic almost 1400 dollars. I also got a tune up done. My car feels like it is doing the same thing again. It is pulling or jumping when I get on to ramps to merge with traffic. I do not want my car to break down again. Can you help or should I take it back to mechanic again.

Hi:
what you describd doesn't sound like it has anything to do with the work that was done. It sounds like a bad steering component. Have the front end checked for a bad, tie rod, pitman arm, balljoints. If nothing is found, I recommend having the wheel bearing inspected too and make sure the rack and oinion is tight.

Let me know what you find.
