| Steering problems |
When you start your truck up let it warm up you start driving down the road and you touch the brakes and the rpm start going up and down up and down with vehicle dying sporadically.
Loss of power steering, slow breaking and unable to accelerate. Problem fixes temporarily when shutting the vehicle off and then back on.
The truck experiences engine stutter at low idle (>1000rpms) varying from 1000 rpms to 200 rpms with felt loss of power steering at low rpms. At lower rpms, typically at stops or low idle turns, the truck will stall with loss of power steering and brake control (tappig the brake equals slamming the brake). Recently, the issue is now becoming more frequent and now occurring while making low idle turns into traffic causing a stall. The only resolution is to drop the truck in neutral, in traffic, and restart hoping the bump start will occur on the first try before being hit from behind. I have called gm service shops, the service center in detroit as well as looked for recalls online and there are no official postings or knowledge of these problems despite numerous individual accounts found in GMC/chevy forums. This issue is a dangerous issue in my opinion and needs to be addressed.
All stop lamps stop working, cruise control switch not working, window switch not working.
