NHTSA Complaint #10307535 — 2008 CHEVROLET IMPALA

I HAVE A 2008 CHEVY IMPALA LTZ, PURCHASED ON 7-4-08 FORM A GM DEALERSHIP IN YUKON, OK. THE CAR HAD 3670 MILES ON IT WHEN PURCHASED. IT WAS DRIVEN, ACCORDING TO DEALERSHIP, BY THE AREA FINANCIAL OFFICER FOR GM. THE PROBLEM IS THAT WHENEVER YOU DRIVE THROUGH STANDING WATER OR WET SNOW, YOU CANNOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. IT DOES NOT HAVE TO MUCH WATER, JUST A WATERHOLE WHERE RUN OFF FROM A SPRINKLER SYSTEM HAS RUN OFF THE DRIVEWAY. ONE TIME, IT WAS LEFT IN AN ENCLOSED GARAGE OVER NIGHT AND THE DRIVER THE NEXT MORNING JUST ABOUT HIT A PARKED VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY COULD TURN THE THE STERRING WHEEL. THE CAR HAS BEEN TO TWO LOCAL GM DEALERSHIPS AND THEY CANNOT FIND ANY PROBLEM. GM SAFETY HAS BEEN CONTACTED AND THEY COULD NOT GIVE AN ANSWER FOR THE PROBLEM EITHER. THE OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE FEEL THAT THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF NOT FIXED. SO FAR, MOST OF THE TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED HAS BEEN IN TOWN AND AND AT LESS THAN 35 MPH.
