Power Steering Fluid Problems of Chevrolet Silverado 2500

17,200 miles and the steering has 3-4 inches of slop in it before the truck begins to turn. It is extremely hard and dangerous to drive. Wants to leave its lane constantly. Mechanic found the lash nut to be backed halfway off, the gear box is leaking fluid, the power steering pump is leaking fluid, and the hoses are leaking as well. 3 year warranty ended a little over a month ago, so gm sr. Advisor said that they would not cover anything, even though it is well under the mileage portion of the warranty parameters. The customer relations manager at the local dealership refused to call me per the request of the gm case manager, and he passed my case to one of his service advisers, so no help from my dealership at all. There are 7 TSB's for this issue #pit5501c->f & 18-na-280. The gm service bulletin specifically says "all VIN #'s for 2016 2500hd" "all engines" & "all transmissions", yet sr. Advisors at gm customer care say nothing is attached to my account, and my truck has not been into a gm dealership in a year, so they will not cover anything. Hello, 3 years old and 17,000 miles, that's an average of 5,666 miles per year which is not even enough miles for gm's recommended oil change period. Recall these defective steering gear boxes before someone gets severely injured or even killed! I have pictures I can submit if needed.

I am experiencing issues of serious rot and rust with components of my truck. First failure was that my power steering pump reservoir rotted through and caused a leak of fluid, had to replace unit. Then transmission line rotted through, causing a leak of fluids, had to replace lines and cooler due to corrosion. Then starter failed, seriously corroded. Had to replace. Afterward, alternator froze up, inside was corroded with rust and would not spin freely, had to replace. Most recently, brake lines burst causing complete loss of braking ability. Will need to replace. I have owned a substantial number of vehicles over the years and this is completely unusual in my experience and has caused a situation that could lead to death or serious injury. I was fortunate to escape both. Furthermore, it has been a serious financial burden and inconvenience to have to replace so many components on a truck that has yet to reach 60,000 miles. I bought this truck new and have taken very good care of it in hopes that my 30,000 investment would last me a good number of years with regular and expected maintenance.
