| Smoke came out of the steering column while driving car. there after turning signal would not operate. took to an independent auto service and had problem diagnosed, but part is unavailable from general motors. i personally called general motors service parts department and spoke to a representative and i was told that the part is unavailable and will not be made available in the future. i am not very happy that i have to drive a unsafe motor vehicle that doesn't have operating turning and emergency signals. i have a wife and children that i transport in this unsafe vehicle. i am affraid for the safety of my family and others. my vehicle is a hazarderous transportation that will cause traffic violations or accidents such as getting hit from the behind. i cannot believe after 8 year that gm would stop producing a part with such safety importance to the public. *ak | |||
