On 4 separate occasions in the past month I have lost power steering. No codes are issued only lights on the dash stating "service power steering" and " service sabilitrack". The first 2 incidents occurred on a straight stretch of highway at 45 mph, 1 incident occurred in a parking lot at 15 mph. These 3 were manageable but the 4th occurred in a curve at 45 mph. This one took all I had to keep the vehicle from going off the road and down an embankment. In all incidents the vehicle was stopped, turned of and restarted shortly after the lose and the problem was gone. Vehicle is scheduled into a local chevy dealer to see what they say is wrong.

While in motion on a city street at low speed near my home, the vehicle suddenly lost power steering assist. I returned to my home and parked.

While driving two different alarms flashes on dash screen; 1) "service stabilitrak" and 2) "service power steering, drive with care. " vehicle then lose power steering. I have learned that if I pull over, stop and turn vehicle off and then back on the alarms clear and I have power steering once again. I have noticed this situation while driving on flat highway and when vehicle is a little off balance such as on a dirt road. I have taken to the dealer, explained situation and referred dealer to comments online. Dealer stated the alarm history is clear and therefore they have no idea what to do. I purchased vehicle around September 2018 from dealer and this situation has happened approximately 18 times over 4 months or so. It has alarmed, I've cleared it and then alarm again in the same hour. It has also gone weeks without alarming. .

While driving the vehicle has lost power steering assist and stabilitrak intermittently on multiple occasions. Alerts flash on the screen and warning lights illuminate and ofcourse the steering will jerk back from a turn (if you're actively in one). Fortunately, I have taken photos in the past and actually had it occur on my way to an oil change today. They checked the code it comes back to "c0545" which can be found on gm bulletin "pit5437b" that identifies this problem back in September 2015. The cherolet service technician who diagnosed this on my vehicle informed my service department adviser that the vehicle is not safe with the problem, which of course was relayed back to me. So, if a problem chevy identified in 9/15 makes a vehicle unsafe to operate, why does Chevrolet want me to pay $1700 + tax instead of including my vehicle in the recall that addressed the same issue (NHTSA campaign number: 16v054000)?.
