Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The 2006 chevrolet impala had a technical bulletin on a power steering hose i was never notifed off. the hose exploded, and the car could not move. it was towed to the 1st dealership. they said it was fixed, but it would not steer out of the bay. they flushed the power steering unit, and with days it would not steer properly. i took it to another dealership, which after two visits, determined it needed a new power steering pump. then the accelerator stuck to the floor while turning. the car was taken to the dealership and a new accelrator was installed. the vehicle was returned to me again and athe steering went out, this time, i nearly hit a telephone pole while turning. the dealership took the car in and replaced the rack and pinion. the car again did not steer properly, and i nearly hit a phone pole on the way home. at one point the second dealership put over 200 miles on the vehicle. gm said the carwas. in operating order . t had less than 17,000 miles on it, and demanded i pick up the vehi or be charged storage fees. i have nearly wrecked the car due to mechanical defects on three seperate occasions. *ak
