Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have your campaign id#05v005000 recall date: 1/5/2005 i have 2000 gmc yukon xl, [xxx],[xxx], [xxx], [xxx], [xxx], my power steering cut out on my on 1/19/05 i saw this recall on your website, called gm, they can see this, and since the recalls aren't going out for at least another week or so and my vin# isn't linked to it they can't authorized repair. i drove for a few days without the power steering and then rented a car, i can no longer afford the rental and need my truck fixed. it is presently today(1/25/05) at mcguire pontiac in little falls nj (973-785-2220) and i just gave the go ahead to fix it. i don't really have this $800.00 to do this and gm is doing an escalation report to see if they can speed up things but that will take a few days. i can't wait this long. i don't see why if a 2000 gmc yukon xl is one of the vehicles affected why it is taking so long to approve. i understand i will be due a refund but it is aggravating that i have to put out this money to begin with. why post this for public viewing if they are honoring it until it is official. should someone be able to attend to this today and contact mcguire that my vehicle is covered under this recall it would be wonderful and a miracle. i don't understand why this is such a problem.
