Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING SOUTHBOUND ON THE LODGE FREEWAY IN DETROIT, MICHIGAN IN SNOWY CONDITIONS. MY CAR STALLED AND I SPENT OUT WITH NO CONTROL. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR MANY YEARS AND I HAVE NEVER HAD A CAR STALL OUT ON ME AND SPEND OUT OF CONTROL SUCH AS THIS ONE. MY REAR DRIVER'S SIDE BUMPER AND FENDER WAS CRUSHED. I WAS UNAWARE OF THE GM RECALL UNTIL PRESENT AND HAD GM DISCLOSED THE RECALL INFORMATION BEFORE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE (PAID IN FULL) WITH MY CASH, HARD EARNED MONEY I WOULD HAVE NEVER DRIVEN TO MONROE MICHIGAN TO GET SUCH A VEHICLE AS THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED TO MY WIFE OR DAUGHTER. GENERAL MOTORS HAD NO RIGHT TO WITHHOLD THIS INFORMATION AS THIS COULD HAVE BEEN FATAL. IN CONCLUSION, I THINK GM OWES ME A REFUND. *TR
