Consumer Description
Please reference G.M. Bulletin 14116B or NHTSA recall on this vehicle for a defective Steering Torque Sensor. According to G.M., my car/VIN is not affected by this issue. The fact is it also has the defective Torque Sensor and it has disabled my power steering every winter since new on a cold day. I took it to the dealer when it was still under warranty in 2010, but the problem was not identified at that time so they didn't replace anything. I recently contacted G.M. to allow them to make this right. They told me to take it to a local dealer and have it properly diagnosed and then they could help me. I took it to a G.M. dealer, paid the $150 diagnosis fee. The dealer confirmed it was a defective Torque Sensor. Now G.M. won't call me back and left me hanging. They obviously know this Recall needs to be expanded. Please investigate.
