Electric power steering failure due to tie rod bellows failure, this is an incredibly dangerous and irresponsible engineering design, moisture entered the electric motor causing it to fail, my wife's failed at highway speeds and almost caused a wreck, she could have been killed, if I could afford to sue I would, our other vehicle is down and we are forced to drive this dangerous vehicle putting us and others in harms way, this is terrible and absurd.

Driving down the road and turning into my driveway, the power steering went out, the truck cut off - then after a few minutes, the truck started, then the display showed “Open then close driver window” & now displays “Service Power Steering, Drive With Care”

When turning the power steering gave out and made the truck completely lose power while going and turning at a slow speed

twice know i have had the truck shutdown when turning to the left at slow speed . Took the truck to a maint shop and they had three codes in the computer but nothing they could fix so they cleared the codes and said to drive it and if it happens again to bring it in and they'll see what they can find out ,but my have to go to agm service center to have it checked . so I'm drive carefully and hope not to have a accident.

Noticeable at night. Headlights on, turn signal on, foot on brake slowing down, making a turn, 1) headlights flicker, 2) headlights flicker and complete dash goes black, or 3) all of #2 and steering goes stiff. Has been happening more often. Last time, during the day, turning against oncoming traffic and engine shutdown, started again, shutdown and started, again with dash going black and steering went stiff. When the engine stops and restarts, it does it on its own. I don’t need to turn the ignition key. Very unnerving. My wife won’t drive the truck. Safety at risk is a “yes”. I have noticed when this all happens, the traction control wording comes on the dash and a bell rings. All this has been happening over the last six months. Vehicle only has 94K miles on it.

For almost 8 months, the electrical system experiences complete malfuncation. First it was stabilitrac lighting up, the steering wheel would jerk out of my hands. To issue to mechanic where ground wire under passenger side was cleaned and re-installed. This seemed only a temporary fix. As of today, the 2014 Silverado 1500 LT is experiencing flickering dash lights, surging and dropping voltage (battery/alternator tested at normal driving levels), flickering healights. The worst of the situation is complete electrical malfuncation causing the truck to shut down while driving. This has happened twice in the last 2 weeks. It occurs when the vehicle comes to a stop, then when I try to turn, the voltage drops, dash flickers and the truck shuts down as I try to accelerate into a turn.

While driving the vehicle the truck will lose all power steering. It sometimes works and sometimes doesnt work

I was merging on to the expressway and my truck kept going to the left into traffic towards a concrete median. I turned my wheel to the right to try to avoid it and started to spin out and went back to the right side of the expressway which was four lanes wide and slammed into the guardrail. After the wreck I noticed my ABS light was on I’m not sure if it came on as I was merging onto the expressway.

Electronic power steering assist malfunction and failure. The power steering went out as i was driving with my girlfriend in the truck and it has been stuck on the side of the road in ocean city new jersey. The problem was confirmed by millevois auto repair in ocean city. There was no warning. It says the recall was serviced before hand but it is obviously still failing. i don’t have the money to pay the $3000 to get it fixed and towed on my own for something that was a manufacturing issue. please help me. please have the recall fixed.

Was driving on the freeway at about 65 mph and electric power steering went out causing me not to have control of the vehicle. Was having a extremely difficult time maneuvering the vehicle out of traffic without hitting anyone

I am having issues with the steering. I keep getting a message about the stabilitrak on my truck and when I drive it the power steering just stops and I have to gain control of my truck. I would think that this should be a safety recall. Please assist with looking into this for me please.

Stabil track and Steering assist reduced warning lights go off while using turn signal. power steering, cruise control intermittently shut off causing jerking steering wheel and inability to steer. Using break and turn signal intermittently shuts off motor.

Power steering is going out then comes back every so often. It tells me service power steering drove with care. I have had it checked and they shops computer won’t let them into the power steering window. The engine is reading no codes, however power steering continues to go in and out. I seen a recall on some of the year models but it says mine is not. However I am having that exact problem.

Vehicle will start flashing stability control and starts jerking from passenger side. Along with vehicle randomly shutting off while traveling and turning back on with steering wheel slanted (wheels not aligned) and saying “ power steering reduced, drive with care”.

In a slow speed left hand turn, the vehicle shut down and power steering assist stopped working. It left me in the middle of the road on a busy thoroughfare. It has happened before. Sometimes the vehicle does not shut off, but will temporarly loose power steering, meaning you have apply the brakes and stop wherever you are: parking lot, highway, interstate. Records show that a recall, (N172085440), was issued for this problem and that a repair was completed 6/29/2017, approximately 2 months before I bought the vehicle. It is very scary to get stranded in the middle of a busy intersection! Our safety was certainly put at risk!

I bought this truck in Sept 2017 and have had this intermittent problem from the beginning. The first time I noticed the electrical issue was while travelling on the interstate with the cruise control on. When I would use my turn signal to signal a lane change or press the power window switch, the cruise control would go off. This has been reported to the dealer and another repair shop and they were unable to replicate the problem. This electrical issue has evolved over the years to create a significant safety issue. Occasional while driving at slow speed (I have not had this problem occur at highway speed, thankfully) the warning bell and signals would start dinging and flashing error messages. The errors would advise about stabltrak control and power steering assist. The dash lights would flash and the display screen would go blank. Occasionally the truck would die completely....

Stabilitrack shuts the truck off while driving

I had 2 recalls done, one for power steering & one for brakes. My truck was not experiencing ANY problems before I had this recall done. The day I had it done I lost power steering while trying to park at Home Depot immediately after leaving dealership, almost causing me to hit the vehicle I was trying to park next to. Thinking it was a fluke, i drove it home afterwards & when I got on the highway to go home, I experienced a very loud metal on metal sound that only went away after applying the brakes. I don’t drive much since I work from home, however every time I drive it for 10 min or so, the sound came back followed by increased braking pressure to stop, also almost causing multiple accident and any time I was driving slow & trying to make tight maneuvers or turning my...

Steering assist warning light comes on and vehicle shut down losing ability to steer or brake , vehicle wouldn’t start,tried to start the next day and vehicle started.Before warning light all lights flickered when applying brakes and other warning lights lit up!

Temporary loss of electric power steering assist, happens mostly at low speeds. also complete loss of power and engine Turing at low speeds. luckily was driving less than 10 MPH but had zero control of the truck and brakes did not work and ran into and curb that stopped me. The vehicle was taken into the Chevy Dealership in Covina 3 times and they said there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. There was no warnings at all, just total loss of control

The power steering went out without warning. The power steering system failed without warning during operation. There was a recall for this in 2017 but my VIN number is not included in this recall.

Steering assistance failed during slow speed turn into side street. Vehicle stalled with no power to steer or brake. Engine turned off allowing vehicle to dead stick accross two lanes of traffic for opposite direction. Vehicle came to rest in parking lot nearby. Had there been vehicles in those lanes an accident would have occurred. Dash board monitor gives signals that "stability track" off and check engine have issues. In August of 2017 received recall letter from GM citing problem with EPS (electric power steering). Took vehicle to Serpentini Chevy on August 13th 2017 and they reprogramed EPS Module. Milage at this time was 20,085. They did not charge for repair. In 2017 my vehicle had no symptoms of recall. Now in 2022 this EPS problem is happening with milage 54,000 twice almost causing MVA.
