I had another passenger with me and when avoiding a pothole in the road, the car went crazy and it took all I could to control the vehicle and NOT crash into anyone or another car!  I am having nightmares of what could have happened to me and my passenger.  On the next day, I tried to start my vehicle and the steeling wheel was locked.  I had it towed to VIP near me.  They did a diagnosis on my vehicle and claim that I need a new steeling column and the circuit board. They did further research and found that the 2015 Buick Encores have had a recall on the steering. They then mentioned that there was nothing more they could do and they advised me NOT to drive the vehicle as it was UNSAFE.  I then had the vehicle towed to a dealer.  The dealer (Jacks Chevrolet) claims that my car's VIN isn't included in the recall.  My question is if my vehicle demonstrates the same characteristics,  WHY isn't it part of the recall?  My car is UNSAFE to drive! Jack\u2019s Chevrolet in Saco performed a diagnosis, and the issue was with the battery. From what the contact was told, the power steering is electric, and the battery had tested bad (bad cell). And they stated the power steering is working properly. The contact stated after one event of driving the vehicle after the repair, the vehicle is again demonstrating an unreasonable risk to safety. The steering wheel is locked, and the steering is uncontrolled.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2015","productMake":"BUICK","productModel":"ENCORE","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]}]}
