Consumer Description

THE SO-CALLED "FIX" GM HAS FOR THE 1997-2004 CORVETTE COLUMN LOCK PROBLEM DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. IT MERELY PUTS A BAND-AID ON THE PROBLEM TO PROTECT THEM FROM LAWSUITS. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THIS CAN BE ALLOWED BY LAW. I HAVE HAD TO RESORT TO AN AFTERMARKET PART TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND CHOSE TO IGNORE THE RECALL DUE TO THIS SITUATION. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DO THIS. GM SHOULD HAVE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. AND I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR THE PROPER REPAIR I EXECUTED TO THE CAR. *JB
