    STEERING WHEEL HAS NOT BEEN CENTERED IN FRONT OF THE DRIVERS SEAT. WHILE SEATED THE STEERING WHEEL WAS 2 1/2 INCHES TO THE RIGHT OF THE DRIVERS SEAT. THIS CONDITION FATIGUED THE DRIVERS ARMS WHILE DRIVING ANY DISTANCE. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS CONTACTED 6-19-03. THE CONSUMER IS AFRAID THAT IF THE AIR BAG DEPLOYS IT MAY INJURE HIM INSTEAD OF SAVING HIM. *AK *CB *NLM
