Consumer Description

I TOOK CAR MY CAR INTO A SHOP TO HAVE CHECKED OUT, ONE OF MY COMPLAINTS WAS THAT MY STEERING APPEARED TO BE LOOSE AND NOT TURNING RIGHT WHEN I TURN LEFT ESPECIALLY. ALTHOUGH THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN CONTINUOUSLY IT HAS BECOME A BIG CONCERN OF MINE. IT SOMETIMES FEELS LIKE I DON'T HAVE CONTROL OVER THE STEERING WHEEL. THE MECHANIC LOOKED UP AND FOUNDED THAT A RECALLED HAD BEEN PLACED ON THIS MAKE OF AUTO. I CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS IMMEDIATELY, ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALLED. THIS PROBLEM IS SERIOUS AND I WILL LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE IS ANYWAY YOU CAN ASSIST ME. *JB
