2001 Daewoo Nubira Problems

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WHEN DIAGNOSED IT WAS RELATED TO A DEFECT IN THE CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. I CAME TO KNOW ABOUT A RECALL REGARDING MY VEHICLE MODEL ON THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR AND TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE CAR WAS NOT IN THE DATABASE AND REFUSED TO DO THE REPAIR. IN THE RECALL LETTER IT SAYS THAT WITH THIS CAMSHAFT DEFECT THERE IS A RISK OF ENGINE CATCHING FIRE. *TR

THE CONSUMER RECEIVED THE CAMSHAFT SENOR AND THE BRAKE RECALLS. THE DEALER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED PER THE DAEWOO COMPUTER. *JB *NM

CONSUMER RECEIVED NHTSA RECALL 02V257000 CONCERNING FMVSS 106 BRAKES HOSES. CONSUMER COULD NOT LOCATE A DEALER TO HONOR THE RECALL. *AK

THE DAEWOO NUBIRA 2001 SHOULD BE RECALLED TO REPLACE LOWER CONTROL ARMS WHICH ARE ATTACHED TO THE SUSPENSION. I FEEL THE CONTROL ARMS' INADEQUACIES ARE CATASTROPHES WAITING TO HAPPEN. THE CONTROL ARMS ARE FAULTY AND COULD CAUSE STEERING FAILURE. THIS IS A PART THAT IS REPLACED ON THIS CAR MODEL TOO OFTEN. WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMEONE DOES NOT HAVE $700 TO PAY FOR REPAIR? I ASK THIS BECAUSE WHEN I DRIVE THE DAEWOO IT IS INCREASING DIFFICULT TO HOLD IT ON THE ROAD DUE TO THE FRONT END RACK AND PINION STEERING JERKING LEFT AND RIGHT. I LIMIT MY DRIVING TO THE SUPERMARKET AND SMALL ERRANDS BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM, AND BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECT I DRIVE SLOWLY AND ON SMALL STREETS. GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY IS COMPLETELY OUT OF THE QUESTION. I WAS TOLD BY THE TECHNICIAN AT MOTOR CITY, ODESSA, TEXAS, 432-550-8721, THAT THE BALL JOINT MAY FALL FROM THE FRAME CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL. I NEED REPLACEMENT OF THESE CRUCIAL PARTS. I CAN LIVE WITH PEELING PAINT, BARELY FUNCTIONING ELECTRIC WINDOWS, AND A NON FUNCTIONING AIR CONDITIONER, BUT I CANNOT LIVE WITH A STEERING PROBLEM THAT IS VEERING OUT OF CONTROL. I KNOW THAT DAEWOO IS NO LONGER IN BUSINESS - BUT GMC IS. I ALSO KNOW THAT THE RATIO OF DAEWOOS TO OTHER AUTOMOBILES ON THE ROAD IS LOW; HOWEVER, ANY FUNCTION OR PART ON A PRODUCT THAT MAY CAUSE EVEN ONE ACCIDENT DUE TO MECHANICAL FAILURE SHOULD BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY BY YOUR DEPARTMENT. AN ACCIDENT CAUSED BY A MALFUNCTIONING STEERING MECHANISM ON ANY AUTOMOBILE MAY LEAD TO SOMEONE'S DEATH. *TR

THE FRONT CONTROL ARM IS DEFECTIVE, VEHICLE MAKES A LOUD NOISE WHEN SHUTTING OFF. CAM SHAFT SENSOR RECALL 04V357000. *AK

CONSUMER RECEIVED RECALLS 02 V 131 001 CONCERNING FMVSS 201 AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, AND 04 V 357 000 REGARDING CAM SHAFT POSITION SENSOR. CONSUMER WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE ANY AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER IN HIS AREA THAT WERE WILLING TO HONOR THESE RECALLS.*AK

CAR STALLS & SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AT 5MPH. THE CAR DOES THIS RANDOMLY ALSO, WHEN THAT HAPPENS YOU HEAR A RATTLING NOISE FROM THE FRONT OF THE CAR. I HAVE TAKEN CAR TO DEALER 3 TIMES & THEY FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. HOWEVER THE CAR CONTINUES TO TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING.*AK

ABOUT A MONTH AGO THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD IT CHECKED AND THE OIL WAS FULL SO I CALLED THE DEALER AND TOOK IT IN. MELISSA SAID IT WAS A GOOD THING THE LIGHT CAME ON BECAUSE IF NOT THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION COULD HAVE LOCKED BECAUSE THERE WAS SLUDGE IN THERE AND THE MOTOR WAS NOT GETTING ENOUGH OIL. SHE SAID IT WAS CLEANED OUT AND THE WARRANTY COVERED THE LARGE PART OF IT AND MY COST WAS $106.00. ON JUNE 12TH THE OIL LIGHT COMES ON AGAIN AND THE CAR STARTS TO TICK. I CHECK THE OIL AND IT'S FULL SO I DROVE THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND MELISSA TELLS ME THE ONLY WAY IT COULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY IS THAT I NEED PROOF OF ALL THE OIL CHANGES AND $300.00 TO GET STARTED. IT'S EVIDENT TO ME THAT THE CAR HAD ENGINE PROBLEMS FROM THE MANUFACTURER AND I NEED TO BE REIMBURSED. THIS IS THE ONLY CAR I HAVE AND IT IS ESSENTIAL TO MY FINANCIAL WELL BEING. PLEASE HELP QUICKLY.
