| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: In early january i noticed on tv there was a recall on the 2000 chevrolet silverado. for the driveshaft on the power steering unit. i own a 2000 chevy silverado, how long does the manufacturer have to notify the owners on the recall? or are they required to do so. i believe there was another recall some time back on same model for the cable straps( tailgate support) but never heard a thing from the dealer. i made a phone call on feb 4 to the local dealer regarding the power steering and he had not heard of any such recall. this i kind of a sore subject for me because with only 45,000 miles on my pickup i had to have the seals replaced on the power steering unit due to leakage, in my judgment they wore out prematurely. that cost me $236.00, is there a connection between the driveshaft on the unit and the seals wearing prematurely? i believe i should be reimbursed for the $236.00 if in fact there is a recall.*jb |
