    Power steering fails when going slow and trying to turn. The voltage indicator goes way down into minus, then goes back to normal. Dealer said it was rack and pinion. They replaced it and it failed again two days later. I believe the electric steering piwer assist system is at fault.

    Headlights flicker, radio head unit flickers, error messages (service stablitrak, traction control off, reduced steering assist) doors occasionally will lock and unlock and then truck will shut off all together. Steering wheel randomly jerk out of your hands. Somebody will end up dead if this issue is not fixed, and recalled. Very common through my research in 2014 silverados/sierra's.
