SATURN Complaints

THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE POWER STEERING. I HAD THE REPLACEMENT PART DONE. 2 YEARS LATER THE POWER STEERING REPLACEMENT. I CALLED THE DEALER AND I CALLED GM. THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING. THEY NEED TO RECALL THE RECALL. DO I HAVE TO REPLACE MY POWER STEERING EVERY 2 YEARS. VERY UPSETTING

SEVERAL THINGS ARE HAPPENING, FIRST I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER STATING I WOULD BE CONTACTED CONCERNING AN AIR BAG RECALL, I HAVE NEVER BEEN CONTACTED SINCE THAT LETTER BACK IN FEBRUARY 2016.SECONDLY, TODAY MY CAR JUST COMPLETELY SHUT OFF, AFTER A FEW MINUTES I TRIED STARTING IT AND IT DID START. THIRDLY, THE TRIM ON THE ROOF HAS COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED. I WOULD APPRECIATE INFORMATION ON WHEN I CAN GET MY CAR SERVICED FOR THE AIR BAG RECALL REPAIR AS WELL AS INFORMATION ON ANY OTHER RECALLS THAT MAY BE CONNECTED TO THE TWO OTHER CONCERNS I'VE MENTIONED. THANK YOU. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
