Consumer Description
WE HAVE RECEIVED 3 SEPARATE RECALL NOTICES FROM GM. (1 FOR ELECTRIC STEERING, 1 FOR BRAKE APPLY SENSOR AND 1 FOR A SHIFT CABLE FRACTURE). HOWEVER, GM WILL NOT FIX ANY OF THE PROBLEMS. THEY TELL US TO CALL THE DEALER. THE DEALER THEN TELLS US THAT GM WILL NOT SUPPLY THE PARTS. UPON CALLING GM A THIRD TIME, THEY WILL NOT REVEAL WHO IS MAKING THESE PARTS, WHERE THEY ARE COMING FROM, OR HAVE ANY IDEA WHEN THEY WILL BE AVAILABLE. THEY AGAIN INSTRUCT US TO CALL THE DEALER. EACH RECALL STATES THAT IT IS AN "IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL" IN ACCORDANCE FEDERAL LAWS BUT YET NOBODY WILL FIX ANY OF THE ISSUES. THE FIRST RECALL NOTICE CAME IN 2012 FOR ELECTRIC STEERING. WE ARE STILL BEING TOLD THERE ARE NOT PARTS TO FIX THIS. THE BRAKE APPLY SENSOR CAME IN JULY 2014. THE SHIFT CABLE FRACTURE ALSO CAME IN JULY 2014. (THIS INDICATES THAT THE CABLE CAN SNAP WHILE DRIVING). *TR
