Consumer Description

STEERING WHEEL LOCKED IDENTICAL TO CHEVROLET RECALL CAMPAIGN 04006. WHEN TO HAVE IT FIXED AND THEY FORCED ME TO PAY $200 TO REPLACE LOCK ACTUATOR BECAUSE THAT PART WAS NOT LISTED ON RECALL. THE LOCK PLATE WAS COVERED. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE LOCK ACTUATOR GOT DAMAGED AS A RESULT OF INABILITY TO UN-LOCK THE STEERING WHEEL AS A RESULT OF THE RECALL ISSUE. ALSO CHEVROLET SAID THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE PART BECAUSE I HAD A MANUAL TRANSMISSION, IF IT WAS AN AUTOMATIC ALL OF THE PARTS WOULD BE REMOVED AND DISCARDED. THEREFORE I SHOULD NOT OF HAD TO PAY $200. CHEVROLET CASE #1-325567474.
