While truck is traveling down road truck looses power shuts off, dash goes blank, loses power steering. Very dangerous.
This problem was a recall and was repaired before at no cost. Now it is happening again. I took a 100 mile round trip day trip. . . On the way back I got a steering warning that flashed 2 times on my dashboard while going 75 mph on the highway. Then when turning into my subdivision the truck stalled and I lost all power steering. This happened one other time in a home depot parking lot. I feel the truck is unsafe to drive. And I haul a 36 foot travel trailer occasionally. Obviously this is the second time the same thing has happened. . . The first time it was a free recall repair. . . Please advise on how to proceed. I plan to trade the truck in ASAP due to the fact that my husband and I are up in age and no longer able to travel.
After traveling 50 highway miles, when I was making a slow left hand turn onto a residential street, my vehicle lost power steering, lost power brakes, lost onstar, and the engine shut off. I proceeded to turn manually and stop ending up in the opposite lane. If a car was in the lane it would have been an accident. After some time, the vehicle restarted and I had no problems for now 8 days. While travelling at speed, stabilitrak warning intermittently came on a few times and steering felt loose at times when changing lanes. Vehicle was part of the 17276 safety recall on 8/10/2017. This problem has occurred multiple times since 2018 and has been in the dealership 3 times for this problem: once for 17272 in 2017, once clearing codes-paid over $ 100 for a diagnostic analysis they cleared codes, no repair 9/30/2019, once cannot repeat 9/03/2020, and once upgrading software 1/7/2020. Short time stabilitrak warnings abs warning and notice to raise driver's side window up and down came on multiples times. Clearly gm chev has not solved this software logic problem and cannot fix a clear significant safety issue.
While driving in reverse I will lose power steering and stability control warning comes on. This has been happening for months now. Today while driving when I put my blinker on the stability control warning went on my lights dimmed and truck was shutting off but then came back on. When turning the stability control came on and my vehicle completely shut off while driving. If I wasn't going down a low traffic street I would have crashed. When driving at night with the ac on when getting on my brakes the headlights dim steering wheel will lock up and the stability control will come on and tries to kill the motor. This for the most time happens when getting in my driveway, today was the first time it happened while driving at higher speeds.
While moving at low speed attempting to make a turn, vehicle will lose power steering and headlights will dim and flicker. Also sitting at idle vehicle will have no power steering and when turning the steering wheel, lights will dim to almost going out completely. On several occasions when making a turn and this happens vehicle will display that stabil trac has been disengaged. Door locks also unlocked and locked while this was happening. Also when traveling and using cruise control when turning on the turn signals cruise control will disengage and stabil trac notification will come on in display. Dealer replaced battery approximately 6 months ago stating it was bad and these issues mimicked a bad battery. All problems still persist.
While engaging slow idle speed turns, my 2014 silverado will occasionally completely lose all power steering and the engine will shut off completely. I have also had the same issue occur while driving straight and applying the brake or rolling up windows. During these terrifying situations, a message comes across the dash saying one or all of the following "electronic power steering reduced. Drive with caution" "stabilitrack" "trailer brakes". This issue seems to be very sporadic and unpredictable. I looked up possible solutions and had a mechanic fix a poor grounding connection under the dash which they thought could be the cause but did not resolve the problem. Please help!.
Vehicle has several electrical issues. First, power steering fails at low speed turns. Then, the car occasionally loses all electrical power (screens, gauges, lights, starter, garage door opener) while parked and off. Then last week, it lost all electrical power at 70+ mph on the highway. Lost power steering, all screens turned off, gauges when to zero, etc. This lasted for about 3 seconds and then everything came back on. Many warning lights including power steering, traction control, parking assist disabled. This also gave a 4wd service warning. Now, I get the service 4wd warning every time I start the vehicle and it will not go into 4 wd.
: the power steering system temporarily fail without warning during operation, causing the amount of effort needed to turn the wheel to fluctuate dramatically during the maneuver as the power steering system cycles on and off. The issue is especially prevalent during low-speed maneuvers and can be accompanied by the failure of other systems such as the radio, stability control, door-lock cycling, air condition or cruise control. This happens randomly, when I'm parking or making a turn. I almost crashed into a vehicle in mid turn as I lost power steering and the vehicle shut off. I put it in park and restarted the truck.
Vehicle loses power steering during turns at low speeds and will also turn vehicle off. If vehicle does not turn off, vehicle will display "redused power steering assist" and a stabilitrak warning. If vehicle turns off, vehicle will not turn on right away and dashboard display will not turn on when key is in the on position. After attempts to turn vehicle on, the smell of burning wires is smelled in the cab with no obvious electrical fire.
My vehicle has completely lost power steering and power twice while in the middle of driving on busy roads. Once by myself and the second with my four grandchildren in the car. I have taken it to the dealership after first incident paid 300 dollars for them to look at it and they told me couldn't find anything wrong. Then it happend again the second time in a busy intersection with my four young grandchildren in the car. There was a recall in 2017 for the same problem for this year vehicle but they are claiming mine isn't under that recall and refusing to fix it. Both times it has happend the power steering completely goes out and the truck power shuts down and locks up anything connected to the truck. ( for example my phone was charging and it locked up my phone after it did this) I am concerned about my safety while driving this vehicle and cannot get the chevy(general motors) dealership to help me. They are claiming not to have known about the recall in 2017 at all. I've only had this truck for about a year and it has done this to me now 2 times in the last couple of months. Both times in very busy areas where my truck stalls and looses power steering.
While driving about 30 mph. Turned the indicator and was going to turn right into a side street. . A warning appeared on my dash "power steering need service". Lost power steering and was lucky to stop before the turning and not hit a car on the side street.
