GM RECALL #15406 GM KEEPS SENDING ME REMINDER LETTERS TO HAVE MY CAR FIXED BUT GM IS DRAGGING THEIR FEET ON MAKING THE PART TO HAVE THE CAR FIXED . SINCE I LIVE IN A HOT HUMID STATE (GA) I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE CAR FIXED. -THX-
MY 18 YR SON WAS DRIVING OUR 2004 PONTIAC VIBE HOME IN RUSH HOUR BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC ON A CURVY, MOUNTAINOUS, TWO LANE ROAD ON STATE ROUTE 4 IN (NEAR WHITE ROCK) IN THE LOS ALAMOS NM AREA AROUND 4PM. HE WAS DRIVING UNDER 55 MPH AND AS HE ROUNDED ONE OF THE CURVES, HE WAS UNABLE TO KEEP THE CAR ON THE ROAD AND IT RAN STRAIGHT OFF THE ROAD(TO THE RIGHT), INSTEAD OF TURNING, OVER HEAVY BRUSH AND SEVERAL IRON FENCE POSTS. HE HAS ALWAYS CLAIMED THE CAR BRAKES AND STEERING STOPPED WORKING. THE MANY ADULT WITNESSES CONFIRMED THE CAR "SUDDENLY VEERED OFF" FOR NO APPARENT REASON AND THE TRACKS INDICATED THE CAR REMAINED IN A STRAIGHT LINE THE ENTIRE TIME. THE AIR BAG WAS NOT DEPLOYED. I HAD NOTICED THE CAR SOMETIMES WASN'T TRACKING WELL ON TURNS PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT. THE GAS TANK WAS LOW....
