I have already reported this, however my problem is that general motors refuses to fix this at their cost and it is a possible fire hazard. the steering column emits a smoke and burning smell. then in turn makes this time the turn signal inoperable at times. i have had this problem around 6 times and the fumes coming from it is awful i am afraid its toxic or that a fire may start. i sent gm a letter with all the recurring problems and they refuse to fix it at their cost. they say they can't help me. i feel i shouldn't have to keep paying for a recurring problem, especially one that may result in a fire. shorting of wires in the steering column doesn't seem to be serious enough for gm to take action. | |||
