They must have used the Union Label to fasten the steering wheel to the steering column. It happens all the time with GM and Chrysler cars since the take over.

In documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the car maker said it traced the problem with that particular car to a case in which the wrong wheel was put in a car and replaced later in the assembly process with the correct one. But the new wheel wasn’t attached properly, the car maker says.

When the wheel separated from the steering column, the driver was able to get the car to the side of the road safely, and the company says it has tested other cars from the production run and found no similar problems. General Motors says it believes this was an isolated incident.

I would buy that story if the wheel fell off in the first week, but after 1,600 miles of driving........no way

Shoddy materials, shoddy work, shoddy quality.............. built the union way

The fellow responsible for replacing the steering wheel is not allowed to use screws or bolts. The guy responsible for screws and bolts was not allowed to work on replacement steering wheels only on the original steering wheel. . . on and on it goes.

Just announced, it;s the driver's/owner's fault.

He didn't follow the instructions for it when purchased.


LOL!!!!

GM: Unions + A marriage with government = An over priced mediocre product heavily subsidized and pushed onto the consumers with tax codes and other regulatory gymnastics.

What do you expect? Do you think GE *PUSHING* for these green subsidies, the CFL and wind power is because they like you or are really concerned about the environment? You can live in a cave for all they care, as long as they're rich....... Government marriage to business + Unions = bad outcomes for consumers.

There is a positive though. I don't think I have ever seen a President of the United States act as an unofficial car salesman before, you? He can add that to his resume for 2012, “experience in sales.”
