Consumer Description

THIS CAR HAS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING. THE STEERING RACK IS LEAKING WHICH WILL LEAD TO AN INABILITY TO STEER THE CAR EFFECTIVELY. CHEVROLET HAS AN SPECIAL SERVICE #14329 THAT COVERS THIS FOR A NUMBER OF MODEL YEARS INCLUDING 2012 BUT FOR SOME REASON THE VIN FOR MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED BUT IT EXHIBITS THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM. I NEED GM TO EXPAND IT'S SPECIAL SERVICE TO INCLUDE ALL CARS THAT EXHIBIT THE PROBLEM. THERE ARE MULTIPLE EXAMPLES HERE THAT ILLUSTRATE THE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ASPECTS OF THIS FAILURE.
