2007 Chevrolet Hhr

THE RECALL I HAVE HAD SO FAR WAS WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH AND THAT TOOK THE DEALERSHIP OVER ONE MONTH TO REPAIR. AFTER MY CAR WAS REPAIRED AND APPARENTLY REKEYED I AM LOCKED OUT OF MY CAR, THE KEY WILL NOT UNLOCK MY CAR DOOR. I CALLED THE GM ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE, WITH HOPES OF ASSISTANCE. THEY INFORM ME THEY WILL BE A $59.95 FEE TO UNLOCK MY CAR AND THEY ACCEPT ALL MAJOR CREDIT CARDS. I EXPLAINED TO THEM THIS WAS NOT MY ERROR IT AS A RESULT OF THE IGNITION RECALL THEY STOOD FIRM OF THEIR FEE AND SUGGESTED I CALL THE LOCAL AUTHORITIES. WHEN I CONTACTED GM ABOUT THE RECALL I HAD SHARED WITH THEM I WAS HAVING POWER STEERING ISSUES. WHILE I AM DRIVING MY CAR MY POWER STEERING GOES OUT AND IT BECOMES HARD TO STEER AS WELL THE IS A DISPLAY ON THE DASHBOARD "POWER STEERING". ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS ON THE STREET, FREEWAY AND WHILE TURNING INTO A PARKING SPACE. I THEN BECAME AWARE OF A RECALL ON HHR POWER STEERING, HOWEVER THEY SAY IT NOT WITH MY VEHICLE.LATER I READ AN ARTICLE STATING THAT JEFF BOYER WAS OFFERING A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLES THAT HAVE NOT BEEN RECALLED.GM ALSO SAID 309,160 NON-TURBOCHARGED CHEVROLET HHRS FROM THE 2006-2008 MODEL YEARS MODEL YEAR THAT ARE NOT SUBJECT TO THESE RECALLS WILL BE GIVEN LIFETIME WARRANTIES FOR REPLACEMENT OF THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING MOTOR. SO THEN WHEN I CALL THE 800 NUMBER TO FIND OUT HOW I MAY HAVE THIS POWER STEERING ISSUE ADDRESSED WITH MY DISTRICT ADVISOR HE SHARES WITH ME THERE HAS BEEN NO STATEMENT MADE THAT HE IS AWARE OF I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING IN THIS VEHICLE AND WITH THE ROUND AROUND AND NON ASSISTANCE I AM GETTING FROM GM I AM NOT SURE I EVER WILL.

THIS IS IN REGARD TO RECALL # 14V-047. ABOUT 3 MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT THIS CAR, I LOST BATTERY POWER. OVER THE NEXT 6 MONTHE OR SO I LOST THE BATTERY 3 MORE TIMES THE LAST TIME AT A GAS STATION. I GOT A START FROM AAA EMERGENCY SERV- ICE WHO CHECKED TH E ATTERY AND SAID IT WOLD NOT CHARGE. SO, I HAD TO BUY A NEW BATTERY, SINCE IT IS NOT A STANDARD BATTERY I HAD TO LOOK FOR A BATTERY IN SEVERAL LOCAL CITIES, IT WAS AFTER HOURS. THE FOLLOWING WEEK MY POWER STEERING DIED. A LOCAL MECHANIC REPAIRED IT , A RELAY OR FUSE PROBLEM THIS HAPPENED A SECOND TIME AND NOW I REALLY GOT WORRIED. I GOT THE RECALL NOTICE FROM CHEVROLET DETROIT AND CALLED PRINCETON, NJ. CHEVROLET. I WAS TOLD A APART HAD TO BE ORDERED AND WOULD TAKE A FEW WEEKS. TWO WEEKS LATER, I CALLED PINCETON CHEVROLET , NO PART ,YET. FINALLY, TODAY I CALLED THEM A THIRD TIME AND SPOKE TO JACK THEIR WARRANTY MGR. NO PART YET. THEN I CALLED CHEV DETROIT AND SPOKE TO"TISA ?". SHE MOLLIFIED ME BY TELLING ME I COULD GET A LONER UNTIL MY CAR WAS REPAIRED. I TRIED TO CALL PRINCETON CHEV AGAIN BUT THE LINE WAS BUSY FOR OVER AN HOUR.I FEEL LIKE I AM GETTING THE OLD RUN AROUND.THEY EXPECT ME TO GIVE UP..I WON'T AND I'LL MAKE PHONE CALLS UNTILL I GET SATISFACTION.. *TR

NON OF WHAT YOU'VE LISTED ABOVE, APPLY.. I'M UPSET ABOUT HOW LONG THIS PROCESS HAS TAKEN.. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS HAS BEEN HELD BACK SINCE 2007 AND GM WAS AWARE OF THEIR OWN WRONG DOING! BUT I CALLED TO SET UP AN APPOINTMENT LOCALLY AND THEY TELL ME THAT THE PARTS ARE STILL ON ORDER.. I CANT AFFORD A RENTAL! NOW PEOPLE INCLUDING MYSELF ARE OPERATING ON FEAR.. MY AIRBAG LIGHT BLINKS OFF AND ON FROM TIME TO TIME. THE KEY AT TIMES WANT TURN IN THE IGNITION!! I LIKE THIS CAR, BUT NO LONGER., WHY DOESN'T GM OFFER LOANER CARS TO US ALL UNTIL THEY FIX THE ISSUE THAT THEY CAUSED... SCARED OF DYEING IN RALEIGH, NC. *TR
