Consumer Description

While driving I was alerted from the vehicle message system that my power steering was out. It then made the vehicle incredibly difficult to turn. This has happened on numerous occasions, some while turning, causing me to almost crash. 2015 GMC Canyon's and Chevrolet Colorado's had recalls for the same issue, however, 2016's have not. I have read numerous articles stating owners of these same vehicles with 2016's are having the same problems but GMC isn't recognizing it and the owners are having to foot the bill at the dealership. This a huge safety concern which could ultimately involve death if not handled.
