Default Thank you MTI.

I had a little trouble with the "steering wheel lock" syndrome that the C5 Corvettes suffer from about 3 weeks ago. I was stranded late one night so I broke the damn thing in order to steer my way home. I finally had it towed to MTI and they fixed the problem in the steering column.

Needless to say, Jayson, David, Steve, Chris and Zach were very professional in handling my car's issue.

I can't wait for the next "repair".

Thanks again guys!

Your GTO looks like it would be kind of fun to lift from the nostrils in the hood!
