 I received a safety recall notice on my daewoo nubira regarding the camshaft position sensor. i want to get it serviced, but there nobody will service it! vern eide in sioux falls, who originally sold the car (to the prior owner) refuses to fix it. i went online to the daewoo site to get the nearest shop that would replace it and there is nobody in sd that is on that list. the nearest one is 200 miles away. that is unacceptable. it is a repair that legally has to be fixed, from what i understand...so daewoo needs accommodate a reasonable solution to get it repaired. *nm
