Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH THE POWER STEERING AND STABILITY CONTROL WENT OUT. THIS RESULTED IN SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED STEERING AND REDUCTION IN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I WAS PASSING A TRACTOR TRAILER AT THE TIME IN A SLIGHT TURN IN THE ROAD. I CAME WITHIN INCHES OF HITTING THE TRACTOR TRAILER AND SIGNIFICANTLY INJURING MYSELF, MY CHILD AND DAMAGING THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO EVENTUALLY PULL OFF THE ROAD AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE PROBLEM CORRECTED ITSELF AFTER RESTART. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 2015 GMC CANYON AND GMC ONLY DECIDED TO RECALL SOME OF THE VEHICLES. WHY WOULD THE NHTSA ALLOW THIS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE TO GO UNCORRECTED?
