Power Steering Failed problems of the 2016 Chevrolet Traverse

Normal driving conditions, approximately 73737 miles driven, power steering suddenly stopped working, power steering failed. . . Quickly. . . Not gradually. . . Suddenly. . . Turning into a parking spot and steering wheel lost all power to steering wheel, had to use both hands. . .

Check engine light came on at 56k miles. Vehicle having misfire while driving, rough idle while sitting and sluggish at times. Misfire and rough idle not happening all the time. Had generic code check done before I could get into dealership to see what I was looking at. . . Multiple codes with running lean and 02 sensor. Was able to get into dealer after the weekend and they did diagnostic. Found power steering gear inlet hose leaking onto O2 sensor (b1 s1) causing the whole problem. Not covered under powertrain warranty. I am unable to afford the dealership repair cost at this time and have been seeing where older models have had issues with power steering pump failure and more recent models having leaks due to hoses being too close to other hoses. So I am concerned with replacing the hose and sensor and having the same issue occur again.

After driving from chicago to colorado, approx 1000 miles of extended highway driving, I slowed down to turn into the gas station and my power steering went out. Specifically I had no power steering when braking or at low speeds when rpms were less than 2000. In order for the power steering to somewhat work I would need to accelerate at low gear to raise rpms. I had my family in the car and could have easily lost control of vehicle injuring the passengers in the car or worse another bystander or driver. The car only has 61000 miles on it. Gearbox failed , power steering pump failed, and needs high pressure steering hose. This is a major safety issue and a recall needs to be placed. This is a known issue that has plagued gm cars , specifically this model in past.

Power steering pump failure 32 months & 55,000 miles after new purchase from dealer. Out of warranty due to mileage. Complete power steering failure often at low speeds or when stationary. Intermittent issues during larger turns at speed where power steering will kick in harder or not enough at times felt more in the steering wheel than in the turn itself. Incredibly dangerous and should not be happening so soon or at all. Diagnosed by mavis after issues were noticed while driving.
