When driving all gauges go to zero, truck doesn’t illuminate which gear it’s in, warning lights come on (service 4WD, service stabilitrak, service traction control, reduced power steering, service traction control, service trailer brake system ). When NOT driving if these issues show on the dash when parked and the car doesn’t illuminate which gear it’s in, it does not crank over, does not start, there is no clicking noise either like if it was a bad starter. All the dash lights, gauges, radio goes black as if I turn the vehicle off instead of on. This has been happening since around 2020-2021 in Colorado. It was in a shop for over a month with no resolution. In Idaho in 2022-2024 in a shop for a month with no resolution, and now CA in 2025. No mechanic shop can figure out what is wrong, no “certified GM” shop or “certified...
Issue is based off of this service bulletin, but GM has failed to call a recall on this for coverage. I was driving my daughter to softball practice. Every few minutes there would be a "stabilitrak" message showing on the driving information area. Then in slower speeds my dashboard screen would blank out and then go back to CarPlay. Then once I approached a parking lot at slower speeds my vehicle lost total power and shut down. Then had to switching the gear to park, then turn off the ignition key, then wait a few seconds and turn the key on to start the truck. It started as normal and was able to park in the parking space. Very scary and this is a very serious issue, I could have been in an accident with my daughter. This has to be addressed, I can't be the only one having this...
The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the message "Service Power Steering" was displayed, and the steering wheel was difficult to turn in either direction. Additionally, the ABS and Stabili-trac warning lights remained illuminated. The cause of the failures was not yet determined. The local dealer was informed of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 114,800.
Steering Assist is Reduced Drive with Care.
Engine shuts down on its own causing steering wheel to jerk and almost locks preventing control. Has been doing this for three weeks and is now getting much worse. Seems to do when making slow speed sharp turn. Almost hit another car in intersection yesterday due to steering control loss. I have seen numerous mentions of this on the internet but seems GM does not have a fix. The truck is now dangerous to drive as it can completely shut down in the middle of an intersection.
Brakes fail at low speed forward and reverse.
What happens is my "ABS light" comes on and when I pull into the driveway... the truck shuts everything off. Locks the wheel!!! Lights off!! It's deadly seriously!!! Stabilitrak stops the truck from moving!!! This needs fixed bad!
While turning vehicle at slow speeds the trailer warning,no trailer on vehicle, stability control hill assist radio and steering stop working as well as vehicle will stall out. Depending on when it happens it may stall while turning into traffic. I have searched the issue and found there is a ground problem under dash near windshield. It has happened multiple times like 15 as of this date.
When driving the truck it has a continus pull to the right side
The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving approximately 50 MPH, the power steering assist warning light illuminated, and the vehicle lost power steering functionality. The contact stopped the vehicle. The contact had not turned the vehicle off however, the power steering functionality returned. The contact stated that prior to the failure, the vehicle lost electrical power intermittently while driving various speeds. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a local dealer or independent mechanic. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 170,000.
Complete loss of electrical system power and engine power, vehicle stalls and Coast to a stop. This has happened seven different times in the last 4000 miles driven. Possibly due to faulty ground connection electric power steering system and or stabilitrak I don't know but it is very dangerous. And there has been many other people experiencing this on Silverado Facebook groups.
Power steering (EPS) quit working out of nowhere. I was out camping in Idaho. The power steering issue caused my battery to die and I was essentially stranded. No issues with the vehicle beforehand or warning lights.
The Stabilitrak system is malfunctioning on my vehicle. It does it intermittently but can be available for inspection. When the stabilitrak system malfunctions, the vehicle will either shut down completely while driving, violently jerk the wheel to one side, or it shorts out the system for brief seconds while driving. Once the system malfunctions the "Stabilitrack" warning light comes on as well as the check engine light and traction control light. I have had the truck looked at on more than one occasion. The dealership I purchased it from first said they couldn't find anything wrong with the vehicle, but after showing them the video they came down to a bad power steering control module. I am having a second mechanic look at it to see if there is another solution. I have been reading this is a common problem on these vehicles and it is caused by a bad...
18V586. GM's own number for this recall is 18289. These are for the 2015 Silverado’s . The 2017 Silverado 1500 are doing the same thing as the recall from above describes . My wife had almost accidents cause of this . I almost had an accident today as well getting off the freeway . I know a lot of people are having these problems as well . Gm needs to own up to this mistake they did with these trucks . They should be held responsible for this defect on this truck .
Dear NHTSA, The truck has lost electrical power several times over the past few months but only 3 times while driving. Today it completely shutdown while making a right hand turn at a busy intersection causing the loss of power steering and braking while narrowly missing a car waiting for the traffic light It took both hands to turn the wheel and both feet to push the brake pedal enough to stop on the shoulder. Prior to this latest incident I removed the engine compartment splash pan, checked the starter and ground connections and all seemed well. I then unplugged, cleaned and reconnected all electrical connections in the engine compartment and fuse box. The complete shutting down of a vehicle and its electric system while driving is a very dangerous matter. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
Service Power Steering message comes on and off at random time. Almost got into a accident a couple of times. One example is I was getting off the freeway and the exit made a U shape turn. The Power Steering message came on and I lost power steering and it became so hard to steer. The wheel almost jerked out of my hand and almost went straight into the wall had to use my whole body to turn the steering wheel. Checked grounds and connections all that seem good also checked for codes and there were no active codes
While turning steering wheelat low speeds. The steering wheel will jerk out of your hand and lose power. All the electrical power on the dash will go out for a few seconds and return the steering will return. Also, this is happening over three times in the past week and almost causing me to crash into other parts cars. There is a recall for other vehicles in the 2015 model with the same problem, Campaign #18289
While turning a corner at a reduced speed the Power Steering went out and I couldn’t turn the wheel to the right. I almost ran into a car pulling out of the street I was turning into. a few seconds later the Power Steering came back on.
Was driving down the road at 65 and the truck shut down completely and had control of steering that time. Put truck in neutral and it restarted. Then was in a gas station getting gas then went to pull out after filling up and the wheels jerked and almost broke my wrist the instrument cluster said stibilatrac and shut down. Went to restart then the instrument panel said lower driver window then close . It did this one more time in the gas station parking lot.

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel seized while making a turn with an unknown warning light illuminated. Additionally, the vehicle lost motive power while driving. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 39,000.
While turning out of a parking space. I went into reverse, when I tried to turn the steering wheel it turned the other direction. The dash went dim, stabilitrac message came on the information display and the truck completely shut off. I had no lights no anything. I popped the hood touched the +battery terminal and lights came back on. Was able to drive home
1. I lost power steering, power breaks, all dash lights/power and I believe air bags. The truck is available for inspection. 2. The first time I was traveling at 65mph in moderate traffic, it was very difficult to pull over to safety. The second time I was traveling at 50mph on a very windy road with heavy traffic. I almost hit another vehicle head on with several vehicles traveling in both lanes. The last time I was backing into my carport and almost bumped I to my house. 3. No, I called onstar the first time, they did a system check and said everything was good. I called a dealership the Second time and they confirmed I had no open recalls and explained it would be difficult to troubleshoot because it was intermittent. 4. I will be calling back to the dealership in the morning to make an appointment. 5....
Stabilitrac service light comes on and dash lights flicker for a second, radio sound cuts out a second, then power steering is lost until putting in park or restart of vehicle. Just like recalls for other silverado 1500s. Happens intermittently.
I am the owner of a 2017 Chevy Silverado with a little under 50000 miles. I have had an issue with the computer system occasionally re-booting while driving. Also, on occasion, I will get a warning on my display for "trailer braking system" for a fraction of a second. I have mentioned this a several service appointments and inspections, but the dealership was never able to pinpoint the problem. On the morning of Monday, February 28th, I dropped my children off at school, pulled up to the edge of the building and the "trailer braking system" warning flashed for a split second on my display. I proceeded to the stop sign. As I was making the turn into traffic, the computer seemed to have re-booted several times in the period of a few seconds. However, this time, my steering locked in place while making the turn, putting the front of...
The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that after coming to a complete stop at a red traffic light and attempting to turn the steering wheel in either direction, the steering wheel would forcefully jerk to the opposite direction and the dashboard instrument panel would blink off and the message “Stabilizer" was displayed. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer and manufacturer were not yet notified. The failure mileage was 52,000.
I bought my 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 certified pre owned on 11/04/2019 shortly after I purchased it I started having problems with it. From brakes to lights. An took it in for the recall on brakes and steering. After that I've not had cruise control, and the stabilitrak warning light has been on. And just about a year ago while driving an pulling trailer, I lost communication to transmission, electronic brake, park assist, trailer brakes, ect. An was forced to stop! After taking it in to dealership to fix it, they did which lasted not even a month and done it again numerous times leaving me stranded. Now just last night 11/23/2021 while pulling my trailer, as I came to a stop sign I hit my brakes and all trailer brakes locked up bringing me to a stop (trailer brake on dash has been set on 0 since they haven't...
Lost all communication to transmission control module, electronic brake control module, trailer brake control module, broken can bus wiring, lost windows, can NOT DRIVE!
WHILE ATTEMPTING TO TURN LEFT AT AN INTERSECTION, THE POWER STEERING LOCKED UP AFTER ABOUT 2 INCHES OF TURN ON THE WHEEL. I WAS FORCED TO ABRUPTLY BRAKE. TRIED AGAIN, STILL WOULDN'T TURN. THIRD TRY, IT RELEASED. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT, AS I WAS ANGLED ACROSS THE ON-COMING LANE AND STOPPED. IF I HAD NOT BRAKED, I WOULD HAVE WENT HEAD ON INTO A LIGHT POLE. I LISTED MY COMPLAINT ON CARPROBLEMS.COM, AND THERE WERE DOZENS OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME STEERING ISSUE ASSOCIATED WITH THE 2017 CHEVY SILVERADO, SOME RESULTING IN ACCIDENTS WITH INJURY.
warning on dash SERVIVE POWER STEERING
MY VEHICLE HAS 30,000 MILES. ABOUT 200 MILES AGO NOTICED A CLICKING WHILE TURNING THE VEHICLE IT HAS INCREASED IN NOISE AND OCCURANCE AND HAPPENS WHILE TURNING RIGHT TO LEFT. IN PARK OR DRIVING. I HAD A MECHANIC DIAGNOSE THE VEHICLE TAKING THE COVER OFF AND HE CHECKED THE OTHER COMPONENTS AND HE DIAGNOSED IT AS RACK AND PINION NOISE.
TWICE ON STARTING THE VEHICLE THE STEERING (THE COLUMN UNLOCKED)WOULD NOT STEER. IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN THE COLUMN NO MATTER IF I MOVE IT FORWARD OR REVERSE. NO AMOUNT OF TWISTING WOULD ALLOW IT TO STEER. I WORRY IT MAY FAIL IN ACTION ON THE ROAD. THE DEALER SAID THE STEERING MODULE NEEDED UPDATING AND THEN BECAUSE IT WAS 57 MILES OUT OF WARRENTEE CHARGED ME $186. NO GARRENTEE IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN.
WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS THE POWER TO THE SHUTS OFF AND SECONDS LATER TURNS BACK ON. THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE IN SLOW TRAFFIC AND TURING INTO A PARKING LOT. WHEN THE POWER SHUTS OFF I LOST THE ABILITY TO STEER AND BRAKE.
WHEN DRIVING MY 2017 CHEVY SILVERADO AT LOWER SPEEDS MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP WHEN TURNING BRINGING MY TRUCK TO AN ABRUPT STOP, ONCE IN THE MIDDLE OF A STREET. WHILE THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS ALL THE ELECTRICAL AND LIGHTS ON THE INSIDE OF THE TRUCK SHUT OFF AND ON AND MY STABILITRAK MESSAGE POPS ON MY SCREEN FOLLOWED BY SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE. IT STARTED HAPPENING JUST HERE AND THERE ABOUT A MONTH AGO BUT NOW IT IS HAPPENING EVERY DAY. IM SCARED TO DRIVE MY TRUCK THIS IS GETTING DANGEROUS! GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP ASAP.
WHILE MAKING LOW SPEED TURNS THE POWER ASSIST FAILS, MOMENTARILY RESULTING IN EXTREME DIFFICULTY TURNING/MANEUVERING. THIS HAPPENS NO MATTER WHAT TYPE OF ROAD SURFACE IS BEING DRIVEN ON (PAVED, UNPAVED) AND DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME RESULTING IN SITUATIONS WHERE I HAVE MOMENTARY LOSS OF CONTROL.
I RECEIVE MANY ERROR LIGHTS EVERY TIME I DRIVE MY 2017 SILVERADO. LIGHTS INCLUDE STABILITRACK AND TRACTION CONTROL DISABLED, TRAILER BRAKE SYSTEMS SERVICE, AND POWER STEERING DIMINISHED. THE SAFETY COMPLAINT IS DUE TO THE POWER STEERING ACTUALLY SHUTTING DOWN AND A SHARP LOSS IN ENGINE POWER AND HARD SHIFTING. ON MANY OCCASIONS I HAVE HAD TO LEAVE THE ROAD UNTIL THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. I HAVE GONE INTO QUIRK CHEVROLET ON MANY OCCASIONS BUT THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND THE PROBLEM. I HAVE RECENTLY CONTACTED CHEVROLET DIRECTLY AND THEY HAVE SET UP A CASE AND WILL KEEP OPEN UNTIL THIS IS FIXED.
TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS WITH NO WARNING WHEN THE VEHICLE'S STEERING WHEEL WAS TURNED TO THE LEFT, WHILE IN MOTION, WOULD STOP DURING THE TURN AND JERK BACK THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION AND POWER TO THE VEHICLE WOULD BE LOST FOR A SECOND THEN HAVE POWER RESTORED. THE FIRST TIME I WAS BACKING UP AND HAD TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT TO AVOID HITTING AN OBJECT, AT THIS POINT THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND JERKED BACK IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION AND THE HEADLIGHTS FLICKERED, RADIO SCREEN WENT BLANK, AND THE CLIMATE CONTROL LIGHTS WENT OUT BUT ALL POWER CAME BACK ON AFTER A SECOND. THE VEHICLE DID THE SAME SIX TIMES WHILE TRYING TO BACK UP. I HAVE A VIDEO AFTER I BACKED UP AND PARKED AND THE ISSUE REPEATED ITSELF SO I COULD GET A VIDEO TO SHOW FOR A REPAIR. THE SECOND OCCASION WAS WHEN I WAS ON...
DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND POWER STEERING GOES OUT WHEN I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD. COMES BACK IN WHEN TURN OF THE VEHICLE AND TURN IT BACK ON ALMOST THROUGH ME IN THE DITCH A NUMBER OF TIMES. JUST LOSSES ALL POWER STEERING ALL AT ONCE.
I LOST MY POWER STEERING AND THE DEALERSHIP SAYS I NEED A NEW PCM PART NUMBER 19417067. VERY UNSAFE FOR A VEHICLE OF THREE YEARS AND LESS THAN 30,000 MILES
I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT TEMPORARILY AT AN INTERSECTION WHEN ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. THE ISSUE WENT AWAY BUT THEN A MONTH LATER THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN WHEN TURNING RIGHT INTO A DRIVEWAY EXCEPT THIS TIME THE TRUCK COMPLETELY STALLED AND WENT POWERLESS. THE TRUCK WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO GURANTEE A FIX BUT STATED THEY DISCONNECTED AND CLEANED A FEW GROUNDS BEFORE REATTACHING THEM. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE DECLINED TO ASSIST AT ALL WITH COVERING THE SHOP CHARGES. THE TRUCK THAT IS 3 YEARS OLD AND HAS LESS THAN 30K MILES.
I WAS DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET AT AROUND 35MPH, STEERING GOT REAL STIFF, AND THE STEERING WHEEL WOULDN'T MOVE BACK TO CENTER, SHORTLY AFTERWARDS ALL POWER STEERING ASSIST WENT OFF. WAS ABLE TO GET TO SAFETY BUT THINGS WOULD'VE BEEN A LOT WORSE IF THERE WAS TRAFFIC.
POWER ASSIST IS WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. ON AUGUST 14TH AT 5: P.M, I TURNED ON MY VEHICLE AND BEFORE I PLACED IT INTO REVERSE, I NOTICED THAT THE POWER ASSIST NOTICE CAME ON AND STEERING WAS NEARLY LOCKED, VERY HARD TO STEER. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT INDICATED YESTERDAY THAT IT WAS WORKING FINE AND THEN TODAY THEY SAID IT LOCKED ON THEM TOO. THEY RECOMMEND I TAKE IT TO A DEALER TO CHECK.
WHILE DRIVING, WARNING MESSAGE ON DIC COMES ON AND SAY POWER STEERING NEEDS SERVICE. POWER STEERING COMPLETELY FAILS. TRUCK BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER. NOT ONLY DOES IT NOT HELP, BUT THE STEERING MOTOR MAKES IT HARDER TO TURN. THIS IS THE THIRD EPISODE OF THIS.THE FIRST TWO TIMES IT RESET. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT TO DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY COULD SEE CODES IN HISTORY BUT COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM SO UNLESS IT WAS ACTIVELY DOING IT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD FIX (COST ME $200) THE SECOND TIME IT RESET BEFORE I COULD MAKE AN APPOINTMENT. THIS TIME IT HAS LASTED TWO DAYS.IF IT DOESN'T RESET I WILL TAKE IT IN WITHOUT AN APPOINTMENT FOR THEM TO LOOK AT.
WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL WILL RAPIDLY JERK AND THEN I LOSE ALL POWER STEERING. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A MALFUNCTION CODE OF C0545, WHICH IS A POWER STEERING TORQUE SENSOR MALFUNCTION AND THAT THE POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED AND UPDATED.
WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE POWER STEERING WILL GO OUT AND I LOSE ALL POWER STEERING. THE STEERING WHEEL JERKS RAPIDLY WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC. I WAS TOLD THE VEHICLE HAD A MALFUNCTION CODE OF C0545, WHICH IS A STEERING WHEEL TORQUE SENSOR MALFUNCTION AND THAT THE POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED.
IT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY.. AS I SLOW UP TO A SPEED UNDER 10 MILES AN HOUR, AS SOON AS I TURN THE STEERING WHEEL, THE VEHICLE WILL LOSE POWER, EITHER TURNING OFF AND ON FAST THE DASH WILL LOSE POWER BUT THE MOTOR WILL STILL BE RUNNING... SHERRY THIS HAPPENS, THE STEERING FEELS LIKE THERES RESISTANCE TURNING AND THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IT IS TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE AND LET IT SIT. OTHER TIMES IT WILL HAPPEN AND THE VEHICLE WILL LOSE TOTAL POWER,ALMOST LIKE I REMOVED THE KEY BUT THE VEHICLE WILL STILL BE ROLLING. THE STEERING WHEEL HAS LOCKED TWICE ALL WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STILL IN MOTION AS WELL AND BRAKES ARE NON FUNCTIONING. ITS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES GOING THROUGH INTERSECTIONS, PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY, AND U TURNS. IT NEVER HAPPENS IN REVERSE. ILL NEVER OWN A CHEVY AGAIN...
TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2017 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. WHILE DRIVING 15 MPH, THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING WHEEL. THE VEHICLE SLID AND CRASHED INTO A CURB. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT EXITED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE HAD DETACHED AND ROLLED AWAY. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED NECK AND BACK INJURIES, WHICH DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A BODY SHOP. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 29,000.
STEERING COLUMN FAILURE CAUSING SLOW SPEED ACCIDENT IN PARKING LOT AND INVOLVING LOSS OF STEERING AND IMPACT WITH LAMP POST. VEHICLE DAMAGE TO BUMPER AND DRIVER SIDE FRONT FENDER BUT NOT INVOLVING FRONT DRIVER SIDE WHEEL, SO STEERING COLUMN FAILURE COULD NOT HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY INCIDENT. VEHICLE THEN HAD NO STEERING CONTROL AND IS UNDRIVEABLE.
THE STEERING ASSISTANCE REDUCED LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH AND THE VEHICLE STEERING BECAME STIFF LIKE THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING. I TURNED MY VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN, BUT THIS TIME THE STEERING WAS NORMAL. NOW THE LIGHT IS ON AT ALL TIMES. MY VEHICLE HAS RIGHT AT 50,000 MILES ON IT.
WHILE DRIVING ON CA 395 NORTH WITH SNOWY CONDITIONS, I EXITED TO THE VIEWING OVERLOOK. AT A LOW SPEED AND MY STEERING LOCKED UP. I COULD NOT FORCE THE WHEEL TO MOVE IN ANY DIRECTION BUT LUCKY I ROLLED TO A STOP IN THE TURN OUT. I TURNED THE TRUCK ON AND OFF 2-3 TIMES AND STEERING REMAINED LOCKED. I WAITED ABOUT 3 MINS TO TRY TURNING THE TRUCK ON AGAIN AND THE EPS CAME BACK ON.
