- Fall River, MA, USA

My power steering failed at 80K miles. I tried to fix it myself but noticed it's electronic and can't be fixed unless you bring it to a dealer. I check online and lo and behold, there's a recall! excuse me if I wasn't the least bit surprised. And guess what, just like my former recall for the faulty fuel pump, my car's year wasn't included in the recall! I'm trying to get reimbursed for this but it's like pulling teeth talking to some foreign person with a thick heavy accent who doesn't want to reimburse me for the repair. I'm so sick of GM! why don't they just stop selling cars because they're no good at it. How many lives must they toy with before they realize this!? needless to say, I will keep pursuing them until I get reimbursed!
