I did read the Remedy section, it gives a phone number to Chevy to call, why warranty for Cobalt and not the HHR both use the same steering electric motor, Im not against using the rebuilt motor just the dealers way of making more money.

But not under warranty but at a cost of more than $500.00, my last GM product.

???? What ??? It's a recall. As in, you DON'T pay for it.
And $500 ? Where do you come up with that?

Oh never mind. I was just trying to help out by posting the actual remedy you guys were discussing.

I'm done.

I did call the dealer that I had bought my HHR from he said he couldnot find anything about the ESP motor and gave him myVIN # and quoted cost to replace $500.00.

Tuning the setup on the rear KSports. Removed the locking collars, trimmed about 3/4" from the bumstops, and adjusted the shocks to 12 clicks from full soft. Now the front is 1/4" high....

I just called the same dealers service mgr. that I had talked to the other day andwanted $500.00 and mentioned the bulletin number and said would be under warranty but no motors available and would not give me a date. So if pressed with the bulletin number will state warranty, but denied it when I first called, I still think most dealers are dishonest, I give thanks to those that have taken the time get the info. again THANK YOU

They throw them away,not even enough material to recycle. And they look to be of the sealed variety.

I sure wish Jay could get a bit more internets savvy. Searching and scrolling is so advanced.
