Hello to all

Greetings!

Well after 8 years of pouring gas into my Dakota I decided that it was time to save a little energy. I bought an HHR and it seems to be a perfect fit for me. I'm a retired airline mechanic. These days I spend much of my time at the local airport working on general aviation airplanes. The HHR has plenty of interior room and the cargo area is perfect for me to haul my tool box back and forth. Looks like it'll be just as easy to work out of the back of the HHR as it was with my pickup. The HHR won't pull my boat around in the summer though, so I'll keep the truck for that:)

I've had the HHR for about 10 days now, it's a 2011 with about 14000 miles on it. So far I love it, except for one problem. Now I need to find the forum for asking about steering issues............

First off-Welcome & enjoy the ride.

As for steering issues you have to elaborate. Also as a 2011 you might as well get to a reputable dealer while it's still under 36,000 miles.

to the forum Al, and congrats on your new ride!

Oh boy! An A&P mechanic! Well too bad your so far away, always on the lookout for someone to tinker with my Cessna 195 Businessliner.

What sort of steering problems are you having, we can sure steer you in the right direction.

Welcome to the Forum.. I would think being that it's only 14,000 miles, you could EASILY get it covered at any GM dealership.. My suggestion, take it to one. :)
