2000 Chevrolet Impala complaints

THE STIFF/TIGHT STEERING ON MY IMPALA IS CAUSING MY HANDS, WRIST, ELBOW, SHOULDERS AND BACK TO BECOME VERY PAINFUL FINGERS. MY FINGERS ARE BENT AND TWISTED TO FIT TO THE CONTOUR OF THE STEERING WHEEL. WITH THIS TIGHT STEERING THE TEXTURE ON THE WHEEL WEARS OFF AND THE OPERATOR HAS TO GRASP THE WHEEL HARDER TO TURN THE WHEEL. HAVE TO USE TWO HANDS AND GRIP WHEEL HARD TO TURN IT. GO TO WEB SITE HTTP://PHOTOS.YAHOO.COM/MIKETOMICH FOR VIEWS OF OTHER PEOPLE WITH BENT FINGERS FROM SAME PROBLEM. POLICE OFFICERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME BENDING AND TWISTING. THIS BENDING AND TWISTING RESULTS IN ARTHRITIS. THE POLICE ALSO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE WHEEL BEING TOO SMOOTH TO HOLD THE WHEEL (SAGINAW COUNTY SHERIFF DEPT). ALSO BAY COUNTY SHERIFF DEPTARTMENT DEPUTIES ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT BACK PAIN. REASON THEY HAVE THE BACK PAIN IS BECAUSE THE TORQUE THEY HAVE TO EXPERT ON THIS STIFF STEERING (WHICH IS MUCH MORE THEN IN THE PAST) TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL GOES DIRECTLY TO THE SMALL OF THEIR BACK IN THEIR HIPS, BECAUSE THE HIPS ARE SECURED TO THE SEAT BY THE SEAT BELT. THE SEATS ARE VINYL, AND THE EXCESSIVE TORQUE TRANSMIT TO THE SECURED PART OF THE BODY (THUS BEING THE BACK/HIP AREA). THE STEERING WHEEL TORQUE REQUIRED TO TURN THE WHEEL GOES FROM A STATE OF THE MUSCLES BEING RELAXED TO AND IMMEDIATE TAUNTNESS WHICH RESULTS IN A SHOCK LOAD TO THE JOINTS IN THE BONES. WHEN MAKING A TURN, THE TORQUES REQUIREMENT DOESN'T EASE UP, IT BECOMES HARDER TO HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL IN A TURN THUS MORE TOR

I HOPE YOU CAN HELP ME. I HAVE A COMPLAINT I'D LIKE TO REGISTER WITH YOU ABOUT THE WARRANTY OF A CAR MADE BY CHEVROLET. THE VIN (VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER) IS [XXX]. I AM UNABLE TO FILL MY CAR WITH GAS AT A PRESSURIZED GAS PUMP WHICH IS BASICALLY AT ALL GAS STATIONS. AT TIMES I'VE HAD TO GO INSIDE THE GAS STATION JUST TO PURCHASE A GAS CAN SO I WOULD BE ABLE TO FILL MY CAR WITH GAS. I'VE HAD MY CAR IN FOR REPAIRS 3 TIMES AND NEXT WEEK WILL BE THE FORTH. CHEVROLET HAS BEEN CALLED SEVERAL TIMES CONCERNING THIS ISSUE. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. IN FACT THEY ARE REFUSING TO HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM. THEY HAVE DECLARED THIS AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE AND NOTHING CAN BE DONE TO FIX IT. THAT IS UNTRUE. THE DESIGN OF THE GAS TANK IS WHAT IS AT FAULT AND CHEVROLET WILL NOT ACCEPT THAT. HERE'S WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU DO TO PROVIDE RESOLUTION: I WOULD LIKE CHEVROLET TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND THAT THIS IS NOT AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE AS I'VE BEEN REPEATEDLY TOLD IT IS. COULD THERE POSSIBLY BE A NEW DESIGN MADE TO THE VALVE AND CANNISTER AREA AS I FEEL THIS WOULD REMEDY OUR PROBLEM. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PROMPT ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU SOON.*AK INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I HAVE GOT THE THIRD STEERING COLUMN, THIRD SET OF TIRES AND A NEW CRADLE. THE PROBLEM STARTED AT 4437 MILES AND HAS CONTINUED YET @ 37204 MILES.
