Consumer Description

I WENT THROUGH A PUDDLE OF WATER THAT WAS ON THE ROAD. ABOUT 2-3 MINUTES AFTER GOING THROUGH THE PUDDLE MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT. THE ENGINE BEGAN TO LOOSE POWER AS THE BATTERY LIGHT WENT OUT ALSO. *TR I WAITED ABOUT 2 MINUTES AND THE STEERING WAS RESTORED. I DID RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT OTHER 2008 SATURN OUTLOOK OWNERS HAD THIS PROBLEM AND THERE WAS A REPAIR BULLETIN NUMBER 07-03-32-010. WHICH STATED THAT WATER WOULD GET IN THIS ENGINE CAUSING THE ABOVE MENTIONED CONDITION AND THAT GM RECOGNIZED THIS FLAW AND ADDED AN MUDGUARD IN SUBSEQUENT YEAR MODELS. I CALLED GM AND THEY HAD NO INFORMATION ON THIS SERVICE BULLETIN AND SUGGESTED I GO TO A DEALER FOR SERVICE. *TR
