THIS COMPLAINT IS IN ADDITION TO THE 284 HOWEVER, THIS CONCERNS UNIBODY RUST TO THE FRONT K MEMBER CAUSING SAFETY ISSUE AND FAILING INSPECTION. THE CAR WAS UNDER COATED. ACCORDING TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC AND BODY SHOP, THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. WE CANNOT DRIVE THE CAR. REPAIR ESTIMATES EXCEED $10K. WHAT CAN NHTSA DO TO CORRECT TO CORRECT THIS MFR DEFECT. THE CAR SITS IN MY DRIVEWAY WITH VERY LITTLE USE.

THE STEERING HAS FAILED. A MECHANIC AS WELL AS RESEARCH ONE ONLINE, INDICATE THAT THE FACTORY DID RECALL THE CAR TO REPLACE THE ORIGINAL STEERING PARTS. THIS ONE HAS NOT YET BEEN COMPLETED AND GM IS STATING THAT THE RECALL IS JOWNVOID BECAUSE OF THEY REQUIRED THE CAR TO BE BROUGHT IN FOR THE RECALL PRIOR TO 10 YEARS OR 150,000. IS IT AT ALL POSSIBLE THAT BECAUSE THIS IS A STEERING ISSUE WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY A SAFETY CONCERN, THAT THE RECALL SHOULD BE EXTENDED TO ALL VEHICLES STILL OPERATING AND ROADWORTHY?

ENGINE POWER REDUCED, TRACTION SERVICE ESC, AND ALSO THE BRAKE LIGHTS ARE COMING ON WHEN WITHOUT ME PRESSING THE BRAKES.

THE POWER STEERING WILL GO OUT AND SERVICE ESC LIGHT WILL COME ON. SOMETIMES THE STEERING WHEEL WILL SNATCH WHEN MAKING A TURN. THE TRACTION WILL DISABLE AND WONT ENABLE. WHEN YOU TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON THE PROBLEM WILL GO AWAY. *TR*JB
