AFTER 7 HOURS, I STILL HAVEN'T FOUND A CHEVY DEALER THAT SAYS THEY CAN HELP. IF THAT HAD HAPPENED A FEW MINUTES BEFORE WHEN I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE, I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED.

RE: NHTSA ID 04V060000. MY 2000 CORVETTE STEERING COLUMN LOCKED UP AND WOULD NOT RELEASE WHILE IN MY DRIVEWAY. THIS FAILURE IS SUPPOSED TO INITIATE A FUEL SHUTOFF TO PREVENT VEHICLE MOVEMENT. HOWEVER, I WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE VEHICLE AND DRIVE IT UP A TOW TRUCK RAMP FOR TRANSPORTATION TO A GM DEALER. FORTUNATELY, THE FRONT WHEELS WERE STRAIGHT WHEN THE COLUMN LOCKED UP.

I WAS REQUIRED TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS WHICH INVOLVED THE REPLACEMENT OF THE COLUMN LOCK SWITCH.*AK

I HAVE A 2000 CORVETTE AND IT HAS 18,000 MILES ON IT; AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP YESTERDAY BECAUSE OF A STEERING COLUMN LOCK MAKING MY CAR NOT DRIVEABLE. THEY WERE GOING TO CHARGE ME $556.00 TO FIT IT. THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER INFORMED ME THAT LAST YEAR HE PICKED UP 21 CORVETTES IN THE SOUTH HOUSTON AREA WHERE I LIVE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND THAT IT WOULD HAPPEN TO SOME OF THEM MORE THAN ONCE AFTER BEING FIXED. ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT 127,000 CORVETTES FROM THE YEAR 1997 TO 2004 HAD BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP AND GENERAL MOTORS SAID THAT BECAUSE MY CORVETTE WAS NOT MADE AT THE PARTICULAR FACTORIES NOTED, THAT MY CORVETTE WOULD NOT BE CORVETTE. AFTER COMPLAINING, THEY SAID THEY WOULD GO 50/50 WITH THE DEALERSHIP SO I HAD TO PAY HALF OF $556.00. I STILL DON'T FEEL I SHOULD HAVE HAD TO PAY ANYTHING. IT IS OBVIOUSLY A PROBLEM IN OTHER FACTORIES. I PLAN TO WRITE GM A LETTER WITH MY RECEIPTS, ETC. TO SEE WHAT ELSE I CAN DO. THANK YOU.

AFTER PAYING FOR A TECHNICIAN TO TEMPORARILY FIX MY LOCKING STEERING COLUMN SO I COULD GET MY CORVETTE HOME, I OBTAINED RECALL INFORMATION OVER THE INTERNET THAT SAID THE PROBLEM I HAD WAS TO BE FIXED WITH A RECALL KIT. AFTER CONTACTING MAUHER CHEVROLET IN ST. PETERSBURG, FL., I WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL HAD ALREADY BEEN SATISFIED FOR MY VEHICLE. THE KIT INCLUDES A PLATE AND A RELAY BYPASS THAT DISABLES THE LOCKING MECHANISM IN THE STEERING COLUMN. OBVIOUSLY, THEIR INFO. IS WRONG BECAUSE THE WHEEL LOCKS AND SOMETIMES STAYS LOCKED WHEN IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO. THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO FOR ME. I AM NOT COMFORTABLE DRIVING MY VEHICLE IN FEAR OF IT MALFUNCTIONING WHILE I'M DRIVING AND THE DEALER WILL NOT PERFORM THE WORK AS THEY SHOULD. MY VIN NUMBER IS [XXX], 2000 CORVETTE. PLEASE HELP. *JB UPDATED 07/27/2012 *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

STEERING COLUMN LOCK ON MY 2000 CHEVROLET CORVETTE COUPE. I BOUGHT THE CAR IN AUGUST 2003 FROM A LOCAL DEALER. ON TUESDAY 11/25/03 MY CAR'S STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT UNLOCK AFTER I INSERTED THE KEY INTO THE IGNITION. THE CAR STARTED BUT THE STEERING WHEEL COULD NOT BE MOVED IN EITHER DIRECTION. SINCE I COULD NOT STEER THE CAR I HAD IT TOWED ABOUT 5 MILES TO HENDERSON CHEVROLET. THEY SAID I HAD TWO CHOICES. 1) FOR $498 I COULD HAVE THE PROBLEM REPAIRED BUT THE REPLACED PARTS COULD FAIL CAUSING THE PROBLEM TO OCCUR AGAIN, OR 2) FOR $595 THE DEALER WOULD INSTALL A MECHANISM THAT WOULD RENDER THE STEERING COLUMN LOCK INOPERABLE. I OPTED FOR OPTION 2. ON WEDNESDAY 11/26/03, AFTER I PICKED UP MY CAR FROM HENDERSON CHEVROLET, I CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE AT GM AND EXPLAINED MY PROBLEM. GM SAID THEY WOULD CONTACT GM'S SERVICE MANAGER FOR MY AREA AND CALL ME BACK. ON TUESDAY 12/2/03 GM CALLED ME. I TOLD GM I HAD TO PAY $595 TO GET MY CAR "REPAIRED." THE LADY AT GM SAID SHE WOULD CALL GM'S AREA SERVICE MANAGER AGAIN AND THEN CONTACT ME ON FRIDAY 12/5/03. I HAVE MY DOUBTS, BUT EVEN IF GM AGREES TO REIMBURSE ME FOR THE $595 REPAIR BILL PLUS THE $32 RENTAL CAR COST, THE POINT IS THAT THERE'S A DEFECT IN THE CAR AND GM SEEMS UNABLE/UNWILLING TO FIX IT PROPERLY. YOUR WEB SITE SHOWS A TSB FOR THIS PROBLEM AND I THINK THERE WAS A LIMITED RECALL DONE BY GM. HENDERSON CHEVROLET PUT MY CAR'S VIN IN THEIR COMPUTER BUT THEY SAID MY CAR DID NOT MEET THE RECALL CRITERIA TO BE REPAIRED AT NO CHARGE. IT M

FUEL GAUGE INACCURACY. I HAVE TO DEPEND ON THE MILES LEFT UNTIL TANK HAS AN EMPTY GAUGE. WHEN ALL FUEL GAUGES GET TO ABOUT 1/4 TANK (ON THE CONSOLE AND THE HOOD), IT WILL DROP TO EMPTY SETTING OFF LOW FUEL ALARMS. GAUGE HAS BEEN REPAIRED 3 TIMES AND CONTINUES TO HAVE THE PROBLEM. *LA

SEAT FRAME BREAKAGE - SEPARATION OF SEAT FROM FRAME. THE SEAT FRAME IN MY 2000 CORVETTE BROKE, CAUSING THE SEAT TO SEPARATE FROM THE FRAME AND SEAT TRACK. THE SEAT DROPPED APPROXIMATELY ONE INCH WHEN IT BROKE. THE INCIDENT COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. IN A SEARCH OF CORVETTEFORUM.COM, I FOUND THAT SEVERAL OTHER OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE. GM IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT HAS TAKEN NO ACTION TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. IF YOU INVESTIGATE THE SEAT DESIGN, YOU WILL FIND THAT THE SEAT FRAME AND ATTACHMENT MECHANISM TO THE SEAT SLIDERS ARE VERY THIN AND DO NOT APPEAR UP TO THEIR DESIGNED TASK. *LA

I OWN A GM CHEVROLET CORVETTE CONVERTIBLE 2000. THE STEERING COLUMN IS LOCKED DUE TO A DEFECTIVE STEERING LOCK.

SERVICE BULLETIN 01044 AND SERVICE OPERATIONS DCS 771 I CALLED GM BUT THEY SAY MY CAR IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT INCLUDED EVEN THOUGH MY CORVETTE IS A 2000 MODEL AND I AM SUFFERING FROM THE SAME PROBLEM AS OTHER OWNERS HAVE ENCOUNTERED. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT I CAN DO OR IF GM CAN BE FORCED TO INCLUDE MY CAR IN THE RECALL AS WELL. THANKS TONY TSAI, MD 718-261-9068 *LA
