Lose Power Steering problems of the 2011 Chevrolet Malibu

While pulling out in traffic in tallahassee, florida, leaving starbucks,, I lost power steering control without any warning of this possible issue occurring, almost resulting in crashing into the median.

Power steering light displays on the dash than car lost power steering control. . While driving able to steer with using extreme strength turning by driver this happen on city road.

There is a problem with the steering torque sensor in my vehicle that causes my vehicle to lose power steering. The problem starts as soon as I turn on the vehicle. I was never notified of the special coverage adjustment for the power steering torque sensor in my vehicle. The problem started happening well before I reached the 150,000 mileage limit and I started taking my vehicles to shops for pricing of the issue. I was notified by one of the shops I took my vehicle to that there was this special coverage adjustment and that I should take my vehicle to my dealer. I did this but the dealer stated that they would not honor the special coverage due to my vehicle being 700 miles over the mileage limit. I also contacted my manufacturer and complained about not receiving this notification, however, the manufacturer continues to deny honoring the coverage due to my vehicle being 700 miles over. I explained to them that I had proof that I was trying to get the issue rectified at other body shops before I was over the mileage limit, however, there was still no assistance.

While I was driving I lost the power steering on the vehicle. It happened twice . Thank god there was no traffic other wise I could have had an accident.

As I was driving my 2011 chevy Malibu home to tulsa ok from arkansas my car dropped speed, I lost my power steering, the reduced engine power light came on, service traction esc light came on too. When this happened I was on the highway driving 65 mph and then the car lost speed down to 15 mph. I was almost hit on the highway. I made it off the highway and stopped at a store but could not figure out what was wrong. I made it home barely and the next morning my car started and I've had no problems until Monday Dec. 22nd when I was leaving work to go home the same thing happened. I stopped and turned my car off for a little while then when I restarted it it was fine. Had no more problems until christmas eve when my fiancã©e and I were headed to texas to be with relatives. We had to pull over about 5 times due to the car having the same issues. My fiancã©e looked under the hood to see if he could figure out what might be wrong and all he found was that our battery cables were loose on one side. We finally decided to stop and buy a new battery cable. We made it to texas and had no problems until we were headed back home from texas. We made it about halfway home when we had the same problem. We had to pull off the road about 15 times total. Each time we just turned the car off for a moment. We would get back in the car and make it about 10miles down the road when the same issue started again. My fiancã©e finally thought maybe our battery was going bad. We stopped and bought a new battery for $120 and replaced it. At first we thought this fixed the problem but only made it about a mile when the problem happened again. We would pull off the road and turn the car eoff and it would run good for a mile or two and we would have to pull off the road again. We didn't think we were going to make it home but we finally did.
