Consumer Description

WE PURCHASED OUR 2004 IMPALA NEW IN MAY OF 2004. THERE ARE CURRENTLY 56,000 MILES ON IT. THE SPEEDOMETER ACTS CRAZILY AND WE ALSO HAVE THE NOISE AND VIBRATION THE STEERING COLUMN. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THE STEERING SHAFT WILL COST AT LEAST $100 AND A NEW INSTRUMENT CLUSTER $300. THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE THE COST OF LABOR AND STATE SALES TAX! THESE DEFECTS NEED TO BE ADDRESSED . I AM ALMOST FEARFUL TO LET MY WIFE DRIVE THIS CAR. AFTER READING ALL THESE COMPLAINTS, I CAN'T BELIEVE THE GOVERNMENT IS FAILING THE AMERICAN CONSUMER TRYING TO BUY AMERICAN PRODUCTS. NO WONDER THE FOREIGN CAR COMPANIES ARE EATING DETROIT'S LUNCH! *TR
