The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving with the cruise control activated to 55 mph but recorded going 6-8 mph above the cruise control setting. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to local dealer cantu Chevrolet sales & service (805 e riley st, freer, TX 78357 (800) 741-1494) where it was diagnosed with "needing a programmer to reprogram the speedometer". The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of failure and did not provide further assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 52,000.
I was driving on the interstate with cruise control set, and whenever I would signal left to merge into the other lane, the cruise would disengage. I could reset it as usual immediately afterwards, but it had done this before, so I tested multiple times and received the same response almost every time. The dash lights would flicker, as well as mylink window in center console area. It would also go nuts if I rolled up the window and hold a second past the time window was completely up. I had multiple lights within dash light up, then go off (really scary). Happened too fast to tell what lights lit up. Additionally, my power steering went out as I was slowly turning into driveway of my friend's house. He even commented it looked like I was having trouble with the turn, so it wasn't just my imagination. This episode has happened several times before, almost as if the engine had died (but it had not done so). I have read where this was a recall on other models of chevy trucks, but found no recall information on my VIN. All I know is that if my electronics and/or my steering go out while going down the road and I wreck, gm will have major legal issues on their hands. I have been a lifelong chevy owner and always keep my vehicles in tip-top shape. Therefore, this is a manufacturer's issue that needs resolved before lives are lost.
Product safety recall 17276 loss of steering assist -- my truck is not involved in this recall, but I am having the exact issues described in the recall, sudden loss and return of eps assist. This happens at low speeds when turning or backing, both forward and reverse motions. I am also having issues with the cruise control shutting off intermittently when activating the turn indicator to change lanes. I understand that this may be related to this recall, as the electrical software issues can cause other electrical systems to become temporarily disabled, such as the radio, stabilitrack, dic, chimes, door-lock cycling, air conditioning, or cruise control. Also, when the turn indicator is activated and the cruise control shuts off, the dash lights also flicker. I have already had this truck in to the dealer once to fix this, and they refused to run the recall because my truck was not in the recall group. Instead they charged me over $1,000 to replace a steering wheel position sensor, which I now doubt was the problem since the issues with loss of steering and disabling of cruise control have returned. I just want this fixed.
Steer assist and stabilitrak errorr messages. Says to service. My a/c unit is also affected by this. It appears that it may have been part of the recall #17276 but according to the dealer our VIN did not pull it up. The vehicle pulls and steering becomes difficult. A/c unit blows out hot air. When in cruise control sometimes the vehicle accelerates on its own and the rpms shoot up. Have to break and decrease speed for problem to be resolved before resetting cruise control.
While driving with cruise control engaged and a signal light is used , cruise is disengaged or if the windows are rolled up or down then cruise will be disengaged. This action will also cause the instrument cluster to dim when the signal is used or windows rolled up or down. If I turn the vehicle off and restart the vehicle it will clear up and may go another hour before it does it again. This is getting progressively worse and sometimes flashes a warning in the drivers information center,stabilitrak disabled and steering assist disabled drive with caution. Again if I turn the vehicle off and restart it it will work just fine for a while. This does seem to happen more when I have driven the vehicle for at least one hour. This started happening approx 6 months ago with cruise being disengaged and the dash lights dimming while using the signal lights or the window switch. The stabilitrak and steering warnings started 03/19/2017. On 03/20/2017 I had driven the vehicle about 2 miles and was pulling into a parking spot at a low speed when the steering wheel was ripped from my hands. The last incident was on April 8th while pulling a trailer with the tow haul mode engaged. I was attempting to pass a vehicle and kicked the vehicle into passing gear when the stabilitrak and steering warning both came on .
This failure has occurred quite a few times. Driving home then turning left the steering wheel locked up and shook violently back and forth. I almost hit a car in the opposite lane due to the loss of vehicle control. When this happened the lights on the dash, radio, ac fan all flickered and suddenly the truck shut off. I turned it back on and drove with similar issues and warning lights on the dash telling me the steering assist is off and service stabilitrac. When I pushed the window control up with the window shut the same thing happened again shutting the cruise control off when I used the turn signal. I'm worried about my family's safety the dealership said they couldn't duplicate and can't "find the fault code" which I find ridiculous with electronic technology controlling everything. They should be able to fix this serious safety problem.
