1 Steering Column problem

Failure Date: 08/20/2019

Traveling at all speeds the stabilitytrak will turn off when hitting the breaks. Simultaneously, the truck will lose quickly lose power and then it comes back on. I have taken the truck to get fixed multiple times at a chevy dealership and each time they come up with something new that could be the problem. I have called and make 2 complaint to gm/chevy (8-3966798693 and 9-5684003780) both times the manufacturer have done nothing for me. I did the recall back in 2017 for this problem and that did not work. I have had grounding wire work done, a new battery put in, a new engine fuse block with wiring harness, and recently a new steering column. Nothing has worked.

4 Steering Column problem

Failure Date: 10/26/2017

While on the highway a stabilitrack warning appeared on the dash stating it might affect power steering assist. This came on several times. Then with the cruise control on and signaling a lane change the cruise was cancelled. This also occurred several times. It also appeared that the dash lights flickered ,but I wasn't sure because of the sunlight . Later that evening I was making a turn on a city street when the dash lights went completely out and I had no power steering. This lasted about 2 seconds before everything came back on. After that episode it hasn't happened since. After reading other similar complaints I am concerned it could happen again and could result in a crash. It seems that when the cruise was cancelled when signaling the lane change, that if I pushed up or down on the turn signal lever at the end of the lever it would cancel the cruise control. I tried pushing down on the lever closer to the steering column and that didn't cancel out the cruise control. I don't know if it was just a coincidence or it just wasn't malfunctioning at the time.
