For the 3rd time my wife while driving her car had these issues! service power steering where it makes it hard to turn. Brake and abs lights come on making the brake pedal go to the floor barely stoping the Suburban, service stabilitrac and service trailer brake! this is the second time it's at the dealer the first time it went away so quickly we thought it was a fluke but it definitely scared my wife to death! by the time we get it to the dealer it clears it's self and they can't find anything wrong! we videoed the incidents and need help to see why those issues aren't recalled on our Suburban like they have recalled on other 2015 Suburbans?.

39 Steering problem

Failure Date: 01/24/2017

I was involved in a vehicle accident in January of 2017. A very traumatic experience needless-to-say. I was in the far left lane of a 3 lane highway. As I was attempting to switch to the center lane, I suddenly lost the ability to control my steering wheel, as though it was jammed. As a result I continued to glide across the highway, desperately trying to maneuver my steering wheel to go straight. I was frantically telling my passenger � I can't control my wheel!!� within moments I was at the far right side of the highway at this point, and all of a sudden the wheel �releases�, it no longer felt jammed. When this happens my vehicle turns almost 180 degrees, facing the direction of on-coming traffic, and we were immediately hit by huge tractor trailer. The blessing in all this was there were no fatalities, and I am deeply grateful for that. In the aftermath of it all, my vehicle was totaled and I struggled with not being able to fully understand nor explain how and why this happened.

40 Steering problem

Failure Date: 09/28/2016

Noise and clunking feel in steering wheel when turning at slower speeds. This has now occurred twice. First repair was at 19627 miles and again at 29906. This had also happened on our previous Suburban. This appears to be a latent defect in the gm design. Loss of steering can occur.

41 Steering problem

Failure Date: 05/27/2016

Takada recall- on may 27 2016 we were involved in an accident in our 2015 Chevrolet Suburban. 2 of the 4 passengers passed away. We were ran off the of road and hit twice by a truck pulling a trailer. All airbags except the front passenger and drivers front airbag deployed. This occurred while the vehicle was in motion. We crossed northbound lanes and came to a complete stop about 10 feet off of the roadway. A motorhome towing a Jeep locked their brakes going approx 65 pmh when they saw us cross the road and lost control causing them to come off of the roadway. They hit us, causing us to spin around and then hit us again. The accident ended with us being slammed into a cement culvert. During this time the front airbags still did not deploy and also the steering wheel broke off. The front passenger passed away as well as his sister sitting behind him. Can someone look into this and see why the front airbags did not deploy and also why the steering broke? thank you. Jessica smith.
