Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Last febuary i bought this car "certified used" from a chevy dealership. less than a week later the power steering failed while i was driving on the highway at 65 mph. some how i managed to pull over without wrecking the car. i turned it of and back on again and it seemed fine. then it happed again and again so we took it to the dealership. at first i really regretted buying the car but they fixed it and it seemed okay. now a year later and after the warrenty has expired there is a clicking and thumping noise coming from the steering and i'm sure that i will have to pay plenty to get that fixed lucky for them the warrenty is gone. meanwhile i'm without a car. i will never buy aniother car from gm again. this car was a huge mistake!
