NHTSA Complaint #11218122 — 2015 GMC CANYON

THE TRUCK WILL LOSE POWER STEERING AT ANY TIME OR SPEED WHILE THE TRUCK IS MOVING. THE MESSAGE ON THE DASH READS SERVICE STEERING ASSIST. WHEN I AM DRIVING IT CAN PULL THE STEERING WHEEL OUT OF YOUR HANDS IT'S VERY DANGEROUS. I REPORTED THIS TO MY DEALER AND GMC LAST YEAR THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG BUT IT IS STILL DOING IT. WHEN YOU CAN GET THE TRUCK TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURN IT OFF AND BACK ON IT IS FINE FOR A WHILE AND IT WILL DO IT AGAIN THE SAME WAY.NOW DEALER IS SAYING THE STEERING GEAR ASSEMBLY NEEDS REPLACING AT A VERY HIGH PRICE. I THINK ITS ELECTRICAL. THERE IS A RECALL FOR A PLUG BUT FOR SOME REASON MY TRUCK DOES NOT FALL UNDER THAT RECALL BUT IS STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I THINK SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE SEVERELY HURT OR KILLED BY THIS PROBLEM. THEY NEED TO FIX THIS AT THEIR COST NOT MINE. WORRIED.
