Consumer Description

*** THIS IS A COPY OF WHAT I SUBMITTED TO BUICK. THEY HAVE YET TO RESPOND. ***I HAVE A 2000 BUICK REGAL. THE CAR HAS BEEN TROUBLE-FREE SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT (SINCE JULY 2001). I WAS A MECHANIC FOR 10 YEARS PRIOR TO GETTING OUT OF THE BUSINESS. *AK IN ALL MY YEARS OF FIXING CARS, I NEVER HAD TO REPLACE STEEL LINES ON THE RACK AND PINION UNIT. ON MY REGAL, I HAD TO REPLACE THE LONGER OF THE TWO (NOT THE POWER STEERING HOSES, BUT THE STEEL LINES ON THE RACK ITSELF). EVEN THE FOLKS AT THE DEALER COULDN'T BELIEVE THAT I HAD TO REPLACE THIS PARTICULAR LINE. SINCE MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY, HAS THEIR BEEN ANY RECALL ON THIS LINE? CAN I GET RE-IMBURSED FOR MY TROUBLES? SINCERELY, RICHARD ZIELENSKI [email protected] [email protected] 216-641-5090
