DEALER HAS HAD NO INPUT AS TO REPAIR ? AS IT IS INCONSISTENT , I PURCHASED VEHICLE USED ONLY 5 MO. AGO . I AM CONCERNED AS TO WHAT IS CORRECT INFO ? *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY, THE POWER STEERING LIGHT WENT ON AND THEN I LOST POWER STEERING. I PULLED IT OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. AFTER WAITING A FEW MINUTES, I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON. IT WAS FINE - FOR A BIT. DURING MY 21 MILE COMMUTE, THIS HAPPENED 4 TIMES. EVERY TIME, I LOST POWER STEERING, PULLED THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, AND TURNED IT OFF. EACH TIME I TURNED IT ON, IT WAS FINE FOR A BIT. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE DUE TO THE LACK OF STEERING - IT FELT LIKE I WAS DRIVING A TRACTOR EACH TIME THIS HAPPENED AND TURNING CORNERS WAS VERY DIFFICULT. ONCE I GOT HOME, WE CHECKED THE OWNER'S MANUAL AND IT STATED THAT WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING DEVICE IS FAULTING. WE CHECKED ON THE INTERNET TO FIND OUT HOW TO PURCHASE THAT PART AND DISCOVERED THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL REPORTS CLAIMS THAT THE 2007-2009 HHR AND COBALTS HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE. SO, WE CALLED AND PURCHASED A PART FROM THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP IN ELBURN. I ASKED THEM ABOUT HOW TO MAKE A COMPLAINT AND I WAS LED TO DISCUSS THIS WITH GM AND MAKE A COMPLAINT. THEN, I AM MAKING A COMPLAINT WITH YOUR COMPANY AS WELL. *TR

I BOUGHT MY CAR A WEEK AGO. DROVE IT HOME WITH NO INCIDENT. THEN DROVE IT WAS ON THE HIGHWAY TO TAKE MY ELDERLY MOTHER TO AN AIRPORT 40 MILES AWAY. AFTER SEEING HER OFF, I WENT TO GET MY NEW CAR WASHED. THEN GOT BACK ONTO THE I-5 AND DROVE ABOUT 3 MILES, WHEN I HEARD A TONE AND THE DASH BOARD UNDER THE SPEEDOMETER LIT UP, STATING I HAD LOST POWER STEERING. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF SIX LANES, GOING 60 MILES AN HOURS IN A BRAND NEW TO ME CAR I WAS NOT USED TO DRIVING, IN CONGESTED COMMUTER TRAFFIC. I AM NOT STRONG. I WAS SCARED OUT OF MY MIND. LUCKILY I WAS ON A STRAIGHT AWAY. I PUT ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS AND PEOPLE EVENTUALLY LET ME OVER. I TOOK THE NEXT OFF RAMP AND MANAGED MY WAY HOME ON FRONTAGE ROADS AND SIDE STREETS, WHICH OF COURSE TOOK FOREVER. ARRIVING HOME I TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND CRIED WITH RELIEF AND FRUSTRATION. THEN I TURNED THE IGNITION BACK ON TO SEE WHAT THE MESSAGE ON THE DASH WAS AGAIN AND IT WAS GONE. I'M TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THIS CAR AGAIN. AND EVERYTHING THING I'VE READ ONLINE SINCE, SAID THAT IF THE SHOP DOESN'T SEE THE MESSAGE OR DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, THEY CAN'T FIX IT, EQUALLING MONEY WASTED. THIS PROBLEM IS NOT NEW, HIGHLY DANGEROUS AND RECALLED IN AT LEAST ONE OF CHEVROLET'S OTHER CARS AND RECALLED ON THE HHR IN CANADA. WHY NOT HERE??? AREN'T AMERICANS AS VALUABLE AS CANADIANS??? PLEASE MAKE THIS A RECALL AND CONTACT ME WHEN YOU DO. I HAVE A CAR I CAN'T DRIVE WITHOUT FEAR AND CAN'T SELL IN GOOD CONSCIENCE. I AM OLDER, IN POOR HEALTH AND WITHOUT MUCH MONEY, I FEEL THAT I HAVE BEEN CHEATED. NO ONE SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO SELL UNSAFE CARS ANY WHERE!!! I ALSO FEEL THIS PROBLEM IS WHY CHEVROLET IS DISCONTINUING THE HHR, AND LEAVING US OUT IN THE COLD WITH THEIR MISTAKE. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE FOR A RECALL??? I FEEL IT WAS CLOSE IN MY CASE!!! *I WILL BEGRUDGINGLY BE TAKING IT TO A DEALER FOR REPAIR. WHAT ELSE CAN I DO? *TR
