Consumer Description

STEERING WHEEL LOCK UP INDICATIONS ARE BEING EXHIBITED. DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER MESSAGE "REMOVE KEY AND WAIT 10 SECONDS" HAS APPEARED A HALF DOZEN TIMES OVER THE PAST 3 MONTHS. CAR IS ONLY DRIVEN ONCE OR TWICE PER WEEK. KNOWLEDGEABLE PEOPLE IN THIS AREA ADVISE ME THIS IS A PRECURSOR TO FAILURE OF THE STEERING COLUMN LOCK. LOCAL DEALER AND GM CUSTOMER SERVICE TELL ME MY VIN # IS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL. MY READING OF RECALL CAMPAIGN # 04V060000 INDICATES MY 1997 THRU 2000 WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS ARE SUBJECT TO THIS DEFECT. LOCAL DEALER AND GM CUSTOMER SERVICE REFUSE TO HELP WITH PROBLEM. *AK
