Consumer Description

I STARTED THE CAR ON TUESDAY 6-18 TO GO TO WORK AND AS SOON AS I STARTED IT, THERE WAS A MESSAGE ON THE DASHBOARD SAYING TO SERVICE POWER STEERING AND THE ERROR LIGHT WAS ON. I WENT AHEAD AND DROVE TO WORK (ONLY 1 MILE AWAY) AND IT TOOK ALL THAT I HAD TO STEER IT. FIRST CHANCE THAT I GOT, I CALLED THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP AND HAD IT TOWED THERE, AT CHEVY'S EXPENSE BECAUSE THE CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. WHEN THEY FINALLY HAD TIME TO LOOK AT IT, THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS AN INTERNAL ERROR IN THE POWER STEERING MODULE, THEY HAVE TO REPLACE IT, ACCORDING TO LAW OR THEIR GUIDELINES. I'VE CHECKED SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND THE PART ANYWHERE, NO DEALERSHIPS OR ANYPLACE ELSE. HERE IT IS OVER A WEEK LATER AND THEY STILL CAN'T FIND ANYTHING. THEY DID GIVE ME A LOANER, BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS. THEY CAN'T EVEN TELL ME HOW LONG IT MAY BE.
