I had my 3 month old daughter in the vehicle with me at the time that i lost control on my 2014 chevrolet silverado 1500. I was turning and the wheel began to turn on its own and was hard to control. The internal computer kept switching on and off as if it had a mind of its own. I was inches away from hitting another vehicle and being at fault of an accident, not to mention the danger my daughter was in. I was able…

While making a left turn into my driveway on a city street going approximately 10 mph, my steering wheel suddenly jerked to the left out of my hand, and the entire vehicle went dead (lost all power, lights, etc.). Because the steering wheel locked, i was unable to turn fully into my driveway. As a result, the bed of the truck was sticking out into a major road and i was almost hit by cars coming around the curve by…

Power steering fails during a turn along with the engine stalling and all electrical power being shut down. Steering becomes very difficult each time this happens. It is an intermittent issue. But it is a safety issue every time it happens. A google search yields many, many similar reports. Why has this not been addressed? It is dec 2017 and many of these dangerous vehicles are still not fixed by gm.

Noticed an issue at about 70000 miles where turning left at low speeds under 10 mph there is a sound clunk in the steering. It is easily reputable and happens often regardless of direction, reverse or forward drive. The dealer said it is a failure of the steering rack, and it needs replaced. $1800 for the part and $3 hours of install brings the repair to $2400 for a 3 year old truck. I noticed many other complaints…

It started with the "anti-theft detterent" system acting up and not allowing me to start the car. After flipping the key a few times, it went away. Then the problem progressed to when turning the key it was if the battery was dead. Everything would go black (lights, info center, dic, etc). After a few minutes of…
