Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND WITHOUT NOTICE MY STEERING HAD NO POWER, REALLY SCARED BECAUSE I COULD BARELY STEER THE CAR, SO GLAD I WAS IN A 45 MILE ZONE. I LOOKED AT MY DASH LIGHTS, THERE WAS SHOWING A RED BATTERY LIGHT, SEVERAL BRAKE SYMBOLS, SOMETHING ABOUT THE TRACTION LOSS. I NEED MY CAR SO BADLY, I DON'T KNOW IF GMC WILL COVER THIS. IF I HAD NOT PULLED OFF ROAD AND CALLED MY HUSBAND I WOULD OF WRECKED BECAUSE OF IT BEING SO HARD TO STEER. HE CAME AND SLOWLY DROVE IT HOME AND I FOLLOWED HIM IN HIS CAR. NO NOTICE AND NO WARNING AT ALL.
