GM Gets Bit By The Recall Bug

General Motors has just announced that they have issued a recall for some of their compact car models, this recall is set to affect about 1.3 million vehicles in the US, Mexico and Canada. The recall affects the following models.

05-10 Chevy Cobalts

07-10 Pontiac G5's

05-06 Pursuits (Canada)

05-06 Pontiac G4's (Mexico)

The recall is not as serious as the recent Toyota scare. GM's recall is because of the power steering pumps, they have found that over time they fail. If the pump fails it will not cause any danger, but the driver will notice that the vehicle becomes harder to turn the steering wheel under 15 MPH. Drivers will also see a warning light and hear a chime to let you know of what is going on.

If you drive one of these vehicles contact your dealer for questions.
