NHTSA Complaint #11428919 — 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO

There were no previous issues of any kind until I tried to leave work one day. Two warning lights came on when I started the vehicle: "Service Power Steering, and Service StabiliTrak, drive with care". I tried backing out and could NOT turn the wheel. I had it towed to a mechanic the following day and found out that other 2015 Colorados have a recall on this exact part. Power steering could have gone out at any time while I was driving and the weight of the vehicle could have caused a serious accident, depending on when and where it happened, seeing as how I could not budge the steering wheel. I contacted Chevrolet and was told my vehicle "wasn't covered" under the recall. They had no desire to assist me in any way. The mechanic I took the truck to is having trouble ordering the part because it is on nationwide backorder. I wonder why? If they can even fix it, it will cost me close to two thousand dollars at this point, for a safety issue that should be covered by Chevrolet. Please help get this recall extended to every 2015 Colorado before someone dies.
