My car is out of warranty now so I guessing I'm out of luck on getting the General to fix it on his dime, but was hoping there was a recall or something to get it fixed. Anyone heard anything in regards to this?

The car starts fine but my automatic door locks and telescopic steering dont work as well and I'm guessing it's all tied together since they all started at the same time...

 

HAD THE column lock issue called GM 10x emailed them finally a rep in the phillipines calls me back they will not pay for this failed recall and I want them to pay my 220 diag fee I told them there is nothing to diag on this well documented weak attempt to fix this recall told me my car is out of warranty i told them its a recall issue not a warranty issue they didn t care gm blows I will never buy another gm product unless it was given to me for free then i would sell it this company deserves to go under why we bailed them out is unreal to me 220 they won t pay for a recall is beyond me im a potential new vette buyer but outsource their phone staff and 0 customer serv is sad gm should be class action sued for this mishandling and poor design of a serious condition on a vette yet,,,,this should be class actioned and I DO HOPE NOW IT HAPPENS,,,I WASTED 7 HRS W PHONE CALLS AND MY CAR IN SHOP FOR 10 DAYS HAD TO PAY 220 DIAGNOSIS FEE THAT GM REFUSED TO PAY I REALLY WANT A CLASS ACTION ON THIS COMPANY THEY ARE LUCKY NOBODY DIED IN A CRASH WITH THIS STEERING PROBLEM OR MAYBE THEY DID,,,I WILL NEVER BUY GM AGAIN AFTER THIS TO GM FIX YOUR FRIGGEN RECALL WITHOUT THE EXPENSE PASSED DOWN TO US LOYAL BUT NOT ANY LONGER CUSTOMERS THIS IS UNCALLED FOR !!!! IM WRITING A LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT OF GM TOO AND I URGE YOU ALL TO DO SO TOO THIS IS ABUSE AND IM SICK OF THE WAY WE HAVE BEEN TREATED ON THEIR POOR DESIGN AND COVER UP IM SURPRISED SOMEONE HERE WHO IS LAWYER DIDN T SUE THEM ALREADY FOR THIS PROBLEM AND COSTS WE ARE FORCED TO PAY WE BAILED THEM OUT FOR WHAT?????????

 

I just called my local dealer and told me that there was a recall for 05's but my car was not flagged as one with the issue... I'm not sure how I can verify for myself if my car was indeed part of the recall or should've been but is not listed as yet. I've had several recalls and service bullitins that apllied to my car that I had to physically show to the dealership that there was a known issue with the problem...

The dealer said I'm on my own as far as paying to get it fixed since I'm out of warranty.

Does anyone have any information on how to diagnose and fix the issue myself?

I figure if I fix it myself it would be done right the first time vs multiple trips to the dealership to get it all straightened out...

 

If the C6 column lock design is the same as on the C5s, it is well documented in the C5 Tech section.
