general problems of the 2019 Chevrolet Impala

Last summer I was experiencing intermittent issues where the vehicle seemed to have a mind of its own while I was cruising. The steering wheel would randomly lock up as if it was forcing me to go straight on a curved road for example. It would happen a couple of more times until one day I was trying to go home from work and I saw a message indicating something along the lines of “service: power steering” followed by the same symptoms. I was able to temporarily remedy this by power cycling the vehicle for a couple of days until it went out completely, uttering me unable to effectively control the steering. I brought it to 2 difference dealerships and they charged me several diagnostic fees to assess that I needed a replacement power steering rack as the one in my vehicle had inexplicably short circuited. 5000 dollars later I managed to get it replaced but I notice similar issues for other vehicles by the same manufacturer within a similar span of model years being recognized in a recall for the exact same issues I was experiencing. Ive already attempted to reach out to general motors and was given no suitable response to my claims.

The vehicle was in motion when exiting the freeway the vehicle lost all power without warning. The vehicle turned off completely no power steering or electrical indications of problem shown on dashboard. After pulling over putting the vehicle in park, it turned back on without any problems. The vehicle has 35736 miles and this is the second occurrence. The first time I was pulling up to a stop light as I was waiting for the light to change the entire vehicle turned off, all power train and electrical as well.
