NHTSA Complaint #762937 — 1997 CHEVROLET CAVALIER

WHILE DRIVING THROUGH A PARKING LOT I TURNED THE WHEEL TO GO LEFT AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND BEGAN PULLING RIGHT ALMOST CAUSING ME TO RUN INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. HAD I BEEN GOING ANY FASTER I WOULD HAVE CRASHED AND DIED. ON THE WAY HOME THE WHEEL LOCKED UP AGAIN TURNING LEFT ONTO OUR ROAD AND I ALMOST DROVE OFF THE ROAD. I'VE PARKED THE CAR AND HAVEN'T DRIVEN IT SINCE WITH CONCERN THAT THIS LIFE THREATENING PROBLEM WILL CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. MANY OTHER GM VEHICLES HAVE REPORTS OF THIS STEERING PROBLEM WITH 97 VEHICLES WHICH CAN BE SEEN IN A REPORT BY GUY CRAMER AT HTTP://WWW.YFILES.COM/GM-STEERING-PROBLEM.HTM. *AK
