    - EAST PALESTINE, OH

    STEERING FAILS WHEN MAKING LEFT TURNS, HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE SERPENTINE BELT, WHICH I HAVE JUST LEARNED WAS A RESULT OF MY RACK GOING BAD. CAN NOT TURN TO THE LEFT NOW, AND STEERING WHEEL STAYS "COCK-EYED" WHEN DRIVING, INSTEAD OF IN THE MIDDLE. VERY DIFFICULT FOR ME TO HANDLE, AND I AM SCARED TOO BEING 4 MTHS PREGNANT AND ALSO HAVING A 2 YR OLD IN THE BACK SEAT. AM CURIOUS IF GM IS ADDRESSING THIS PROBLEM, BECAUSE I READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME THING ON YOUR WEB SITE! TO TOP IT OFF I CAN'T EVEN FIND A REPLACEMENT PART NEARBY!! PLEASE INFORM ME IF THERE IS ANYTHING FURTHER I CAN DO TO POSSIBLY GET THIS RECALLED! IT IS NOT SAFE! DT
