Driving at low speed lights flicker lose power steering truck stops running steering locks up.
When backing out of the driveway I lost power steering - this happened after recalls were performed. On the third visit to the dealer I was asked to pay for additional diagnosis to resolve the reoccurring power steering issue. Walked out of dealership, wasted my morning.
Was driving down the road and lost power steering suddenly and almost wrecked the truck. Message on dash reads service power steering, drive with care! read where 450,000+ 2015 chevy silverdos were recalled for this but my truck wasn't in the recall looks like it should have been. Thanks.
Vehicle was in motion moving straight forward at a very slow speed (inching out of car wash during drying cycle). Dash service indicator came on "service power steering drive with care". Lost power steering almost instantaneously as dash service warning appeared. Was able to pull out of gas station with no power steering and pulled to side of road, turned off truck. Checked under the hood to see if any noticeable loose connections (none). Wiggled fuses in fuse box under hood. Restarted vehicle and dash "service" indicator flashed on but power steering worked for 2 corners (200 yards) while driving 25 mph and failed with same service warning. Limped truck with no power steering to dealer about 3 miles. No noticeable affect to accelerator or other electronics in the vehicle. Vehicle has 39,400 miles on it.
Lose power steering and low speeds when turning and steering wheel becomes very difficult to turn.
Complete loss of power steering. I was leaving my local bank and the service power steering light came on and I lost all power steering and it had not returned. I did some online searching and found there was a recall but the symptoms were loss and immediate return of power steering but thought maybe mine was also associated. I took my truck to lynn smith Chevrolet in burleson TX and was told the power steering control module was bad and the entire steering rack needed to be replaced which is $3,000 out of my pocket. My truck is a 2015 with 53,xxx miles it had never acted strange or given me any problems until that one incident. I was extremely lucky to have a break in traffic as it caused me to occupy all three lanes with my 10 year old daughter in the truck.
2015 Chevrolet silverado 5. 3l 4x4 (48,000 miles). While driving last night I was u-turning at a major intersection when the truck lost all power, then flashed "stabilitrak" on the dash, and jerked the steering wheel out of my hand. Should there have been someone coming the other direction there surly would have a major head on collision. I pulled into a parking lot after re-firing the truck and tried some low speed sharp turns and sure enough the same issue. Flickering power, "stabilitrak" flashing on dash, and steering wheel jerked out of my hand. When I say steering jerked its not as if I just lost power steering, the wheel will actually jerk as if its trying to get back to center on its own. I left the truck over night and went back this morning to have someone follow me home. This is a major safety issue. There is no issued recall for my VIN. I've found hundreds of stories and videos on the internet very similar to mine for this same issue. There are some recalls for other model years that sound like they are aimed at the problem but not for my model/year and everyone I've found that has had the recalls for steering and voltage issues says that the problem continues. Its terrifying thinking that im driving a 6,000lbs mass that can shut off and steer itself out of no where. Ridiculous that this has not been resolved or even acknowledged by gm!.
Tl the contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. While driving approximately 15 mph, the service power steering warning message illuminated and the vehicle lost power steering ability. The vehicle was driven to ciocca Chevrolet of quakertown (855 s west end blvd, quakertown, PA 18951) where it was diagnosed that the steering gear assembly, torque sensor, and harness needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 55,100.
The steering wheel has a popping noise every time I turn it. The 2nd thing is, I have lost power steering 8-10 times while turning into a parking spot. One time it stalled the engine and lost all power for 30-40 minutes and I had to unhook the battery cables to reset so it would crank. Makes me feel real safe while going around a curve at 60 mph wondering if I'm going to lose power again.
