The steering wheel is very hard to turn I am still using like that the truck has 40500 miles, it feels more difficult to turn at low speeds when turning on a street, driving on the freeway is not difficult to control the steering wheel.

Driving at low speeds in rush hour traffic and "degraded steering" warning with chime sounded. Cleared itself and then chimed again with same warning about three minutes later. This was followed by stabilitrack warning and red brake warning. Steering was somewhat harder to turn but was still being assisted. There didn't appear to be any degradation to braking. Maybe the anti-lock system? the a/c then turned off and the radio volume went silent. The stabilitrack switch, a/c controls and radio controls were all ineffective. I noticed the amp gauge was below 12 as it seemed as if the truck electrical system was underpowered. I drove ten miles home and all systems reset by turning truck off and starting it up again. This is first time this has happened. Truck has 66k miles on it.

Sometimes steering is hard to steer as if it has no power steering. Installed new power steering pump cleaned all lines & installed new fluid. Have had front end checked twice. Two different mechanics, cannot find any problems. Problem happens very often.
