Description of the problem | Before i knew about the recalls, i had an accident that really scared me. I was on my way to pick up my daughter from school. All of a sudden, i steering wheel jerked to the right and locked. I hit a light pole. The impact of the crash should have deployed the airbags, but did not. Seat belts exploded. The cop said i shouldn't be walking and to get this checked out. Since then, i have had two recall repairs and now need another repair. On veterans day, 2014, i was given a car from the vfw and progressive as a part of their "keys to progress program. Since then, the hhr has been driven maybe 3 times. No one wants to drive it, i don't know what to do, because its just sitting in the driveway. My kids won't drive it either. If you can help me in any way, i would be grateful. I am having trouble making the payments too, because i am going through a divorce. |
