Consumer Description

THE CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING COLUMN DETERIORATED AND BECAME NONFUNCTIONAL IN A CAR THAT IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND WITH ONLY 17000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS NOT AN OLD CAR, TO SPEND ABOUT $800 TO REPAIR A PART THAT IS STILL THIS NEW IS RIDICULOUS. THERE ARE PAST AND CURRENT INVESTIGATIONS INTO THIS EXACT PART WITH MANY MODELS, INCLUDING VARIATIONS OF OUR OWN.
