“I have a 1999 Chevrolet silverado extended cab truck. Yesterday, the bolts holding the steering gear to the frame attachment broke and I lost all steering control. I was luckily pulling out of a parking space and not driving on a road, as this could have been a terrible accident. I looked on your web site under recalls, and I see reference to NHTSA recall no 98v242/GM recall no. 98062 that describes what happened to my truck exactly. However, upon checking with GM, they did not issue a recall on my VIN number. It did not apply to my truck they say. …”
