C5 Locked Steering Wheel Issue

[Remo]

I've never experienced the locked steering wheel problem but I see a lot of talk on the Corvette sites about it. Has anyone actually recieved a recall notice on it?

I don't believe the recall notices will start until June, and I will be surprised at that timing considering the volume of GM recalls there are.

Remo,

Don't think GM has sent the recall letters yet. They are supposed to be sent this month, though. This initially was reported back in the 2001 time-frame, and GM had a "customer satisfaction campaign" where when your car was in for service the dealer was instructed to perform a check and there was fix of some kind. Don't remember exactly what the fix was. Well, somebody with a little bit of fortitude, clout wherever got it elevated into a recall.

I'll be doing the same thing too. I called GM and they said that when you get the recall letter (whenever that will be), there would be some type of claim form to fill out for those who had repairs related to the error.
