| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Steering column locked & was unable to unlock it after numerous attempts at turning the wheel to the right while turning the ignition key (which is supposedly "the trick"). had to have car towed to 2 different shops (1st one was an independent chevy service center that couldn't find the problem). was very shocked to see that this has occurred to hundreds of other corvette owners. i was never issued a recall notice on this. why in the world not? now i have to pay for repairs. i knew i should have bought that jag instead. |
