While slowing down making a left or right turn it will not turn. It's as if the power steering malfunctions for a second.

This is very dangerous.

Power steering intermittently goes out on low speed, low engine rpm, right hand turns. I have had vehicle to dealer to have issue fixed on may 16, 2017. They indicated they could not duplicate problem. Model year 2014 have been recalled for this issue, but not 2015 model year trucks.
