Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING AND NEEDED TO TURN MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED IN PLACE, I WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE WHEEL AND ALMOST RUN INTO A BRICK WALL. I RECEIVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL FROM GM ABOUT TWO WEEKS AFTER THE INCIDENCE THAT STATED THE STEERING WILL LOCK IN PLACE. I CONTACTED GM ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THERE IS NOT ANYTHING THAT THEY CAN DO TO ASSIST ME WITH THIS ISSUE. *TR
