2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 Electronic Stability Control Esc Problems

The contact owns a 2014 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost power steering functionality, with the stabili-trak warning light illuminated. In addition, the contact stated that the vehicle had since lost steering functionality. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or the dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximate 207,900.

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND TOOK A TURN THE DASHBOARD CHIMED AND SHOWED A "SERVICE STABILITRAK", AND REDCUTION IN POWER STEERING, AND HVAC WENT OFF AND CAME BACK ON AND I LOST POWER STEERING. EVERYTHING FLASHED AND FLICKERED. UPON FURTHER ASSESSMENT AT MY HOUSE STATIONARY TURNING THE WHEEL REACTIVATED THE PROBLEMS AND IT WAS ALSO NOTICED THAT THE LIGHTS WOULD FLICKER AND GO DIM ALONG WITH THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS. LOOKED UP SOME RECALLS AND SAW SOME RECALLS ON 2014 GMC SIERRA WITH LOSS IN POWER STEERING, HOWEVER MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THAT. I HAVE A BRAKE RECALL THAT I WILL BE SERVICING AND HOPEFULLY THAT MIGHT SOLVE THIS DANGEROUS ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AND ALSO AT LOW SPEED, TRUCK COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN ELECTRICALLY. STEERING FAILS, INSTRUMENTATION FAILS, DOORS LOCK, COMPLETE POWER FAILURE. THIS HAS OCCURRED BACKING OUT OF DRIVEWAYS, TURNING INTO INTERSECTIONS. BROUGHT TRUCK TO DEALER,THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING, BUT G218 GROUND ISSUE APPEARS TO BE OBVIOUS YET, THEY REFUSE TO FIX UNLESS ISSUE IS PRESENT.

IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS MY TRUCK HAS LOST ALL ELECTRIC POWER WHILE MAKING A SLOW RIGHT TURN. VOLTAGE DROPS AND I LOSE POWER STEERING. DEALERSHIP PUT A NEW BATTERY DESPITE THERE BEING AN ACTIVE RECALL FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE. HOWEVER, MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I WAS ABLE TO VIDEO IT HAPPENING. IT HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITH THE STABILI-TRAC WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES OR AFTER MOVING SEVERAL WIRES LOCATED NEAR THE BATTERY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 129,000. *BF *AS

WHEN I AM SLOWING DOWN TO TURN AS I TURN THE STEERING WHEEL I LOOSE POWER TO MY INSTRUMENT PANEL AND MY A/C AND RADIO TURNS OFF FOR A SECOND AND THEN COMES BACK ON

GAUGES FLICKER, HEADLIGHTS DIM WHEN HITTING BREAKS, STABILITY TRACTION COMES ON, 4X4 HAS LOCKED IN. TRUCK HAS LOST ALL POWER. HAD TO RESET TRUCK BY REMOVING BATTERY CABLE FROM BATTERY FOR A SHORT PERIOD. *TR

THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED 4-5 TIMES OVER THE LAST WEEK DRIVING BETWEEN 25-40 MPH. WHILE DRIVING, A WARNING OR NOTIFICATION POPS UP ON THE DASHBOARD SCREEN STATING STABILITRACK OFF OR STEERING ASSIST OFF, WHICH STIFFENS THE STEERING WHEEL AND I CAN'T TURN THE TRUCK AT ALL. AT ONE POINT, THE NOTIFICATIONS POPPED UP AND THEN MY A/C WENT OFF AND RADIO WENT OFF ALONG WITH MY ENTIRE VEHICLE. I HAD TO SLAM ON MY BRAKES, PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK, AND THEN RESTART AT WHICH POINT IT CAME BACK ON AND WORKED UNTIL I COULD PULL OVER AND ASSESS WHAT HAD OCCURRED. I ATTEMPTED TO CALL GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE (800-996-9463) AND ADVISE THEM OF THE PROBLEM AND THEY ACKNOWLEDGED A RECALL (#17276 - LOSS OF STEERING ASSIST), BUT IT DIDN'T APPLY TO MY VIN#. IT ONLY APPLIED TO 2014 MODELS OF BOTH CHEVROLET SILVERADO LD AND GMC SIERRA LD VEHICLES, WHEREAS...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING CEASED INTERMITTENTLY, WHILE THE STABILITY TRACK CONTROL AND STEERING REDUCE POWER WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CAMBE CHEVROLET BUICK 704 S HEATON ST, KNOX, IN 46534, (574)207-4109, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED AND THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING MODULE SOFTWARE WAS UPDATED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V761000 (ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, SERVICE BRAKES) AND NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V414000(STEERING) WERE REFERENCED AS A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 85,000.

DURING NORMAL DRIVING IN TOWN AND ON HIGHWAY, STABILLITRAK DEACTIVATES, POWER STEERING ASSIST DEACTIVATES AND THE STEERING BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT, AIRBAGS DEACTIVATE, TURN SIGNALS BECOME INOPERABLE, RADIO SHUTS OFF, AIR CONDITIONING SHUTS OFF. THIS HAPPENS WHILE AT SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY AND AT SLOW SPEEDS. IT IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHEN MAKING SLOW TURNS AS THE POWER STEERING GIVES OUT AND THE TRUCK INSTANTLY BECOMES NEARLY UNCONTROLLABLE (UNCONTROLLABLE FOR MY WIFE) IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TURN. I HAVE TAKEN THE TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID NOTHING IS WRONG AND THE BEST THEY COULD DO WAS PERFORM A SERVICE BULLETIN. ISSUE WAS NOT CORRECTED. I FOUND THAT THERE WAS A NEW BULLETIN THAT HAD A FIX FOR THE G218 GROUND. I CUT BACK THE SOUND DEADENING FROM THE GROUND, YET THAT DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE EITHER. THE TRUCK HAS DONE THIS DOZENS OF TIMES AND IS INCREDIBLY UNSAFE...

INTERMITTENT STALLING, ( COMPLETE SHUT DOWN AT FREEWAY SPEEDS). NO ENGINE, NO POWER STEERING OR BRAKES, WINDOWS WILL NOT OPERATE, NO EMERGENCY FLASHERS, NO DASH RE-OUT, WILL NOT TURN OVER. HAPPENS AT ANY TIME WHILE IN MOTION. HAS PLACED MYSELF, MY WIFE & OTHER DRIVERS IN DANGER NUMEROUS TIMES.

THE AIRBAG AND STABILITRACK LIGHTS COME ON AND OFF THEN THE DOOR BELL RINGS,EVERY 3 SECONDS SOMETIMES FOR CONTINUES 15 TO 25 TIMES WHILE DRIVING,STARTED AT 13331 MILES. THE DEALER REFUSES TO FIX UNLESS I PAY FOR IT

WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING A LOW SPEED TURN THE POWER STEERING FAILS AND THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF AND ALL DOORS ARE LOCKED NO POWER AT ALL FOR ABOUT 40 SECONDS. THEN IT COMES BACK AND A CODE COMES UP TO ROLL DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW DOWN AND THAN UP AGAIN AND IT RESETS THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES IN THE LAST THREE WEEKS 3 TIMES ON THE STREET AND 2 TIMES WHILE TURNING INTO SHOPPING MALLS JUST PURCHASED VEHICLE A BOUT A YEAR AGO THE DEALERSHIP WANTS 100 DOLLARS JUST TO LOOK AT IT ITS A GMC SIERRA 1500 2014 PLEASE HELP I HAVE READ THIS IS A PROBLEM AFRAID TO DRIVE VEHICLE FOR FEAR OF GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE YOU CAN NOT ACCESS THE HAZARD LIGHTS .

**BEWARE** I OWN A 2014 GMC SIERRA DENALI THAT ABRUPTLY SHUTS OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARNING. I TOOK IN INTO THE DELEARSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT THEY FIXED IT. ABOUT A LITTLE OVER A YEAR LATER IT STARTED ACTING UP AGAIN OFF AND ON. I DIDNT WANT TO DEAL WITH THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THEY ALWAYS SAY "IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY" ALTHOUGH IT ONLY GOT WORSE. I ENDED UP TAKING IT BACK TO THE DELEARSHIP RECENTLY BECAUSE IT GOT TO THE POINT WHERE MY TRUCK WAS SHUTTING OFF ON ME EVERY DAY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THIS WAS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN! THE DEALERSHIP AFTER OVER ONE WEEK FINALLY FOUND THAT IT IS AN ELECTRICAL HARNESS ISSUE, SENDING THE WRONG SIGNALS CAUSING MY TRUCK TO ABRUPTLY SHUT OFF. THEY ARE CHARGING ME OVER $900. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL! HOW IN THE WORLD...

DURING NORMAL DRIVING IN TOWN AND ON HIGHWAY, STABILLITRAK DEACTIVATED AND POWER STEERING ASSIST DEACTIVATED FLASHES ON DASH. THE AIR CONDITIONER AND RADIO FLASH OFF. LOSE POWER STEERING. THE WHOLE TRUCK SHUT OFF ALSO ONCE WHILE REVERSING, WENT FROM PARK TO REVERSE AND SHUT OFF. THIS HAD BEEN VERY DANGEROUS, AS IT HAPPENED ALSO WHILE GOING 70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY.

SLOWING DOWN TO PARK ON A STREET AND LOST STEERING AND LIGHTS FLICKERING, I JUST HAD RECALL REPROGRAMMED &SERVICED 60 DAYS AGO, DRIVER ASSIST SERVICE LIGHTS ALSO ON AND PARKING.I NEARLY CRASHED TWICE SO FAR I NEED MY VEHICLE FOR TRANSPORTATION AND WOULD LIKE HELP WITH THIS IMMEDIATELY ,FOR IT IS A PRICEY LUXURIOUS VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE SERVICE STABILITRAC WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED, THE DOOR LOCKS ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY, AND THE POWER STEERING FAILED. ADDITIONALLY, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY TURNED OFF AND ON WITHIN A FEW SECONDS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO RETRIEVE A FAULT CODE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 88,124.

LOST OF POWER STEERING

TAKATA RECALL, PARKING ASSIST SENSORS QUIT WORKING. ABS LIGHTS STAY ON WITH THE ALERT "SERVICE STABILITRAK". MANUFACTURE FAULTY ELECTRICAL GROUND IS POSSIBLY THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM. MY TRUCK IS NOT EVEN 5 YEARS OLD YET. THERE HAVE ALREADY BEEN A LOT OF REPORTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE BY OTHER OWNERS. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM THAT CAN CAUSE COLLISIONS WHEN DEPENDING ON THIS FEATURE TO WORK.

THE GMC SIERRA TRUCK WILL LOOSE POWER STEERING WHILE IT IS BEING DRIVEN. THIS HAS OCCURRED THREE TIMES SO FAR. THERE APPEARS TO BE SOME TYPE OF ELECTRICAL ERROR WITH THE TRAILER BRAKE. THEN, NUMEROUS WARNING LIGHTS COME ON AND THE TRUCK LOOSES POWER STEERING. IT IS DANGEROUS AND DIFFICULT TO DRIVE AT THAT POINT. IT IS RANDOM. THE TRUCK WILL CONNECT AGAIN AND EVERYTHING WILL FUNCTION LIKE NORMAL. THE TRUCK WAS TAKEN TO A GM DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THERE WAS COMMUNICATION ERRORS. THE FUSE BLOCK WAS REPLACED FOR ALMOST 600 DOLLARS. THEN, THE VEHICLE DID THE SAME THING AGAIN AFTER THAT REPAIR. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE SAME DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS AT THEIR SHOP FOR 8 DAYS. THEY WERE UNABLE TO GET THE ERROR SO NO REPAIRS WERE MADE. I HAVE CONTACTED GM CORP ON THREE OCCASIONS. THE SENIOR ADVISOR ASSIGNED TO MY CASE HAS NOT...

ALL HAPPENED SAME DAY. WAS 8 HOURS FROM HOME AND PULLING INTO PARKING SPOT AND THE BRAKES WENT TO THE FLOOR 3 TIMES. HAS NOT OCCURRED SINCE. BUT WHEN THAT HAPPENED THE AIR STARTED BLOWING WARM AND THE SERVICE DRIVER ASSIST CAME ON BRIEFLY. STILL AIR IS BLOWING WARM AND THE SERVICE DRIVER ASSIST COMES ON. HAVE NEVER HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON. I AM HAVING IT CHECKED OUT THIS WEEK.

THE VACUUM ASSIST PUMP ON MY 2014 GMC SIERRA WENT OUT SUDDENLY DURING MY MORNING COMMUTE. THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY FIRM AND THE BRAKES WERE UNRESPONSIVE. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING IN AN CONGESTED AREA AN ACCIDENT WOULD LIKELY OCCUR.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE IS LOSING POWER IN THE STEERING WHEEL, PROMPTING THE STABILITRAC WARNING LIGHT TO COME ON. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, WHILE TURNING AND WHILE GOING IN REVERSE

MY 2014 GMC SIERRA SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE WITH MY FAMILY. IN SOME CASES ALL ELECTRICAL BLINKS AND IT CONTINUES TO DRIVE WHILE TEMPORARILY LOSING POWER STEERING AND OTHER FEATURES AND OTHER TIMES TURNING OFF COMPLETELY UNTIL COMING TO A STOP. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS ~$400 TO DO DIAGNOSTICS ON A G218 BOLT THAT THEY WERE TOLD BY GMC THAT IT IS RELATED TO. THIS ISSUE CAME FROM THE FACTORY THIS WAY. WHILE NOT WANTING TO PAY THAT FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC AND RESEARCHING MYSELF, I FOUND 100S OF VIDEOS ONLINE SIMILAR TO THE ONE BELOW WHICH SHOWS THIS ISSUE HAPPENING TO OWNERS OF THE GMC TRUCKS. WHEN I SPOKE WITH GMC CUSTOMER CARE ABOUT THIS, THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE ISSUE. THERE ARE GOING TO BE TRUCK OWNERS THAT LOSE THEIR LIFE ALONG WITH ANY PASSENGERS IF THIS ISSUE IS NOT TAKEN CARE....

WE HAD THE VEHICLE RECALL NOTICE ABOUT THE STABILITY AND POWER ASSIST REPAIRED AT OUR PREFERRED GM DEALERSHIP, JAMES WOOD, BEFORE THE PROBLEM OCCURRED BECAUSE OF A RECALL NOTICE WE RECEIVED LAST YEAR. SUNDAY, JANUARY 30, 2018 THE DASH DISPLAYED POWER ASSIST LIMITED AND ALSO DISPLAYED ABS LIGHT . SERVICE ENGINE SOON, SO WE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN. THIS TIME THE VEHICLE WAS REVVING HIGH BUT NO DISPLAY. THE DEALERSHIP OBSERVED THE VEHICLE DOING THIS BUT WE WERE TOLD THE RECALL HAD ALREADY BEEN PERFORMED. THERE IS A REVISED PRODUCT SAFETY RECALL REFERENCE NUMBER N172085440. I'M ALERTING THE NHTSA OF THIS.

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ROLLED THE PASSENGER WINDOW UP THE STEREO CUT OFF THE GAUGES CUT OUT AND THE WIPERS WIPES IN ONE TIME. THEN A MESSAGE STATING STABILITRAK NEEDED TO BE SERVICED AND ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING WAS OUT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING SEIZED AND THE STABILITY WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CLASSIC BUICK GMC ARLINGTON (1400 E INTERSTATE 20, ARLINGTON, TX 76018, 817-264-7782) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A FAILURE WITH THE STABILITY OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 71,000.

WHEN DRIVING THE TRUCK AFTER EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME (I.E. 1 HOUR OR MORE) THE VEHICLE WILL FLASH A STABILITRAK WARNING AND THEN POWER THE VEHICLE OFF. THIS HAPPENED WHILE MY SON, GIRLFRIEND AND I WERE ON A TRIP TO FLORIDA DRIVING 70 MPH DOWN THE INTERSTATE. I TOOK TO A DEALER AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE BATTERY CABLES WERE LOOSE. 4,000 MILES THE TRUCK HAS DONE THIS EPISODE AGAIN AND THE DEALER NOW TELLS ME THAT I NEED TO REPLACE THE ELECTRONIC RACK AND PINION ON A TRUCK WITH 65K MILES WITH A COST OF OVER $3K. THERE ARE NUMEROUS EXAMPLES OF THIS HAPPENING WITH TRUCKS JUST LIKE MINE AND GM ISN'T RESPONSIBLE? HARD TO FATHOM THAT IN THE 5 VEHICLES I HAVE OWNED, NOT ONCE HAVE I HAD TO REPLACE A RACK AND PINION AND THE NEWEST VEHICLE THAT I HAVE EVERY OWNED HAS THIS ISSUE.

MY TRUCK.WAS.FIXED.ONCE FOR THE STERRING AND IS STILL.CUTTING OUT ITS.SO.BAD THAT ITS SHUTTING THE HOLE TRUCK DOWN.IN THE.MIDDLE.OF THE ROAD AN.ON THE HIGHWAY OR WHEN U GO TO SPEED UP IT CUTS OUT N THE STREEN COMES TIGHT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE STABILITRAK WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE STEERING WHEEL AND BRAKES SEIZED. THE CONTACT POWERED OFF THE ENGINE WHILE IN TRAFFIC. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND DROVE NORMALLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO COVERT BUICK GMC (LOCATED AT 11750 RESEARCH BLVD, AUSTIN, TX 78759, (512) 583-3411) WHERE DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WAS COMPLETED, BUT NO FAILURE CODE WAS FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 103,000.

THE TRUCK DIES AT ANY MOMENT. STABILITY TRACK SYSTEM WARNING POPS UP IN THE LITTLE SCREEN AND THE STEERING WHEEL IS BLOCKED WHEN THIS HAPPEN. AFTER THESE TO THINGS HAPPENS THE TRUCK SHUT DOWN. SOMETIMES, AFTER A FEW MINUTES THE TRUCK COMES BACK TO NORMAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME FOR LIKE 10 TIMES IN A PERIOD OF LIKE 15 MONTHS. I HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALER LIKE 6 TIMES AND THEY HAVEN'T FOUND THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE CHANGE SOME WIRES FROM THE BATTERY. THEY HAVE REPROGRAM THE SOFTWARE AND NOTHING I STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THE TRUCK DIES AT ANY MOMENT. ALL OF THIS HAPPEN WHEN I AM DRIVING THE TRUCK MOST OF THE TIMES AT LOW SPEED AND WHILE TURNING TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT EXCEPT LIKE TWO TIMES THAT OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN THE HIGHWAY. THE MECHANICS IN THE DEALER HAVE DONE ALL KIND...

THE TRUCK WILL COMPLETELY TURN OFF, LOSS OF ELECTRICAL, POWER STEERING, BRAKING - EVERYTHING. FIRST TIME WAS ON HIGHWAY30MPH IN TRAFFIC 2ND TIME HIGHWAY GOING 45-50 IN TRAFFIC & TODAY IN PARKING LOT, TURNING IN TO DROPPOFF LANE AN CHILDS SCHOOL. NO STEARING AND HIT THE CURB.

STALBILITY CONTROL SYSTEM SUDDENLY WENT OUT WHEN BRAKING ON DRY SURFACE. VEHICLE ENGINE WAS DISABLED CAUSING TEMPORARY LOSS OF CONTROL. THE LATEST OCCURRENCE HAPPENED WHILE TRAVELING AT LISTED SPEEDS ON INTERSTATE 75. I HAVE SAFETY ONCERNS.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE TURNS OFF, STABILITY CONTROL COMES ON AND OFFF ON THE DIC ALSO THE DRIVE ASSIST GOES OFF THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS THEN IS WHEN IT LOOSES POWER

I TEMPORARILY HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE CAUSING ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT. WHILE DRIVING DOWN A RESIDENTIAL STREET APPROACHING A STOP SIGN INTERSECTION I MERGED INTO THE CENTER OF ST TO PASS A TRASHCAN AND IN THE PROCESS OF RETURNING TO MY CORRECT POSITION ON THE ROAD I SUDDENLY HAD NO STEERING. PANICKING FROM THE LOSS I PRESSED MY BRAKES AN ATTEMPT TO BRING VEHICLE TO A STOP BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL BECAUSE THE TIRES BEGAN A SLIDE ONCE NOTICING THE TRACTION LOSS I PROCEEDED TO RELEASE BRAKES AND REAPPLY IN HOPES OF GAINING TRACTION THE BRIEF RELIEF FROM BRAKES CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO REGAIN TRACTION AND WHILE I STILL HAVE NO CONTROL OVER STEERING, THE VEHICLE JERKS TOWARDS THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD AND THE BRAKES BEING REAPPLIED THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO SLIDE OFF PAVEMENT MAKING CONTACT WITH STOP SIGN AND TELEPHONE POLE.

ON OR ABOUT 4 APRIL, 2017 I EXPERIENCED AN ALARM WHILE DRIVING MY 2014 GMC SIERRA. WHILE TRAVELING BETWEEN CONROE TX AND PLANO TX, I RECEIVED A WARNING STEERING STABILITY. THE ALARM CLEARED SO I CHECKED MY OWNERS MANUAL AND IT SAID TO TAKE IT TO A DEALER IF IT DIDN'T CLEAR. I USED ONSTAR AND HAD A DIAGNOSIS DONE ON THE TRUCK. THEY REPORTED NO PROBLEMS. THE NEXT DAY THE TRUCK SHUT DOWN, IN THE MIDDLE OF MAKING A U TURN. MY DAUGHTER THOUGHT SHE HAD KNOCKED IT OUT OF GEAR BUT COULDN'T GET IT TO START UNTIL SHE TURNED IT OFF AND BACK ON. THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN (THIS TIME TO MY WIFE) TURNING INTO A PARKING LOT. SHE TOOK IT TO A GMC DEALER TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. THEY FOUND A BROKEN GEAR IN THE ELECTRONIC POWER ASSIST ASSEMBLY. WE HEARD THAT OUR VEHICLE HAD...

THE FIRST TIME I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND I HIT THE BRAKES AND THE DIC SAID SERVICE STABILITRAK AND A FEW OTHER THINGS AND I LOST CONTROL OF STEERING AND MY CRUISE WOULDN'T WORK FOR A MINUTE THE SECOND TIME I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND I GASES ON IT AND THE WHOLE TRUCK SHUTOFF AND BACK ON BUT I LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING AGAIN THEN I TURNED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND LOST ALL STEERING AND ALL POWER AND THE TRUCK DIED I HAD TO TURN THE KEY 2 OR 3 TIMES AND IF FINALLY STARTED IT LOST ALL POWER IT RESET MY CLOCK AND EVERYTHING ON MY RADIO AND DIC

YESTERDAY I WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 75MPH WHEN WITHOUT ANY WARNING A STABILITY STEERING CONTROL LIGHT FLASHED ON THE DASHBOARD BEHIND MY STEERING WHEEL. THE CAR IMMEDIATELY JOLTED FROM DRIVING MID 70'S DOWN TO AN IMMEDIATE 67MPH. THIS SPEED LIMIT WAS THE LAST THING THAT FLASHED BEFORE MY DASHBOARD BLACKED OUT, THE STEERING COLUMN LOCKED AND THE VEHICLE ENTIRELY LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING. SECONDS LATER MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS SPORADICALLY STARTED MOVING (I DID NOT ENGAGE THE SWITCH) AND I WATCHED THE TEMPERATURE GO UP FROM 70 TO 80 WITHOUT TOUCHING THE GAUGE MANUALLY. THE CAR JOLTED FOR ALMOST 10 MILES SPORADICALLY LOSING CONTROL INTERMITTENTLY AND WHEN I EXITED OFF THE HIGHWAY AND MADE A LEFT HAND TURN AT A LOW SPEED (UNDER 15MPH) THE STEERING COMPLETELY LOCKED AND THE CAR PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TOWARD A CURB. I GAINED CONTROL OF THE...

WHEN I TURN THE IGNITION TO START THE VEHICLE, IT ACTS AS IF THE BATTERY IS DRAINED. THEN THERE'S A MESSAGE THAT POPS UP BRIEFLY STATING "STABILITRAK". I'M CONCERNED THIS IS ABOUT TO GET MUCH WORSE. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME OF THE MESSAGE.

IN THE PAST 4 MONTHS, BEGINNING AT ABOUT 52K MILES, I STARTED RECEIVING MESSAGES ON MY TRUCK THAT SAID "STABILITY CONTROL" WAS OUT AND IT LOCKS THE FRONT LEFT WHEEL, LOSING ALL STEERING, THE RADIO AND THEN THE TRUCK GOES COMPLETELY DEAD. THE AC GOES ON/OFF AND THE HEADLIGHTS FLICKER. THIS IS ALWAYS AT LOW SPEEDS BETWEEN 5-10 MPH AND MOST COMMONLY WHEN MAKING A TURN. I HAD THE BATTERY REPLACED AT THE DEALERSHIP AND NOW THEY'RE TELLING ME I NEED A NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE REPLACEMENT?

TWICE WHILE TURNING RIGHT AT A MODERATE SPEED THE STABILITRAC SYSTEM TOOK OVER AND STARTED COUNTER-STEERING TO THE LEFT WHILE STILL MOVING AROUND A RIGHT HAND CORNER. PRIOR TO THIS THE STABILITRAC WARNING WAS INTERMITTENTLY ALARMING AT RANDOM. THE VEHICLE ALSO LOST ALL POWER AND THE MOTOR DIED AT ONE POINT. DEALERSHIP THOUGHT IT MAY BE ATTRIBUTED TO A LOOSE GROUND WIRE THAT THEY HAD FOUND UNDERNEATH THE DASHBOARD.

TRUCK HAS STOPPED ON RANDOM OCCASIONS SINCE PURCHASED IN JULY 2017. BEEN TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS WHO HAVE YET TO DIAGNOSE ISSUE. SIMPLY LOSS OF STEERING AND ELECTRICAL POWER. EACH TIME IT GOES TO DEALER ,THEY CANNOT REPLICATE ERROR. COULD BE RELATED TO RECALL N172085440 BUT NOT SURE AT THIS POINT. HAVE A VIDEO OF LAST INSTANCE OF ISSUE ON AUGUST 5, 2017 BUT UNABLE TO LOAD.

MY TRUCK LOSES POWER STEERING WHEN TURNING LEFT AND PRACTICALLY COMES TO A STOP MID TURN. IT TAKES APPROX. 5 SECONDS TO BE ABLE TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE TURN. STABILITRAK NOTIFICATIONS CONSTANTLY ALERT ON THE DASH FOR TRACTION CONTROL, STEERING ASSIST, ETC AND WHEN DOING SLOW MANEUVERING THE A/C, STEREO, AND STEERING ASSIST SHUTDOWN FOR A SPLIT SECOND. RECALL IS OPEN UNDER N172085440 FOR 2 WEEKS NOW AND I KNOW OTHER PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THESE SAME SAFETY STEERING ISSUES WAITING FOR THE FIX TO BE PUBLISHED FOR THIS RECALL. PLEASE EXPEDITE THE RECALL FIX ASAP!!

WHEN I AM MAKING LEFT TURNS MY STABILITRAK WARNING GOES OFF AND LOCKS UP MY STEERING WHEEL AND WON'T ALLOW ME TO TURN AND JERKS THE WHEEL WHICH HAS CAUSED A DISLOCATED THUMB AND JAMMED FINGERS, IT ALSO POWERS DOWN MY ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS WITH SOME SERIOUS ACCIDENTS. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN T-BONED SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO IT POWERING DOWN AND NOT BEING ABLE TO TURN. I HAVE CALLED THE GM DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT THIS AND THEY ARE AWARE OF THE RECALL. IT'S GOING TO BE A HEFTY LAWSUIT ON THEIR HANDS WHEN SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY HURT OR DIES BECAUSE THEIR STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP. EARLY JUNE IS WHEN I STARTED NOTICING THIS ISSUE AND IT HAS ONLY BEEN GETTING WORSE!

I AM RECIEVING STABILATRAC , ABS, POWERSTEERING, ERRORS. MY WIPERS WILL ONLY WORK IF I HIT MY BRAKES. THE CRUISE CONTROL DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE.

TRUCK HAS 73,000 MILES ON IT. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH I APPLIED THE BRAKE AND HAD THE STABILI TRACK WARNING GO OFF, AS WELL AS RADIO AND FAN SHUT OFF. AS I WAS MAKING A SLIGHT LEFT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL JERKED OUT OF MY HAND AND LOCKED UP, LEAVING ME WITH ABSOLUTELY NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD RELEASE , JERK AND LOCK REPEATEDLY, IT HAPPENED ABOUT 4 TIMES WHILE TRYING TO REGAIN CONTROL. AT THE SAME TIME WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKE I HAD VIRTUALLY NO BRAKES TO STOP THE VEHICLE. LOOKED FOR RECALLS AND ALL I FOUND WERE HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, BUT NO SOLUTION OR RECALLS. HOW IS THIS NOT A RECALL, IT'S GROSS NEGLIGENCE... WHAT IF I WAS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OR TOWING MY TRAILER AT THE TIME. GM AND NHTSA NEED TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE...

WHEN I AM DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS AND I TURN MY STEERING WHEEL MY WHEEL LOCKS UP AND I AM UNABLE TO TURN BY VEHICLE. WHEN I AM DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY DISPLAY SYSTEM GOES IN AND OUT.

WHEN DRIVING RECENTLY, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING ALONG WITH MY STABILITRAK LIGHT COMING ON. THE VEHICLE STARTED VIBRATING. THE VIBRATING WAS ESPECIALLY ROUGH WHILE IDLE. THE VIBRATION WAS ALSO ROUGH WHILE IN LOWER GEARS AND WHILE BRAKING. WHEN BROUGHT IN FOR SERVICE I WAS TOLD IT WAS A CORRODED IGNITION COIL. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NEW AND IT CURRENTLY HAS ABOUT 37,000 MILES ON IT.

DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC AND "DEGRADED STEERING" WARNING WITH CHIME SOUNDED. CLEARED ITSELF AND THEN CHIMED AGAIN WITH SAME WARNING ABOUT THREE MINUTES LATER. THIS WAS FOLLOWED BY STABILITRACK WARNING AND RED BRAKE WARNING. STEERING WAS SOMEWHAT HARDER TO TURN BUT WAS STILL BEING ASSISTED. THERE DIDN'T APPEAR TO BE ANY DEGRADATION TO BRAKING. MAYBE THE ANTI-LOCK SYSTEM? THE A/C THEN TURNED OFF AND THE RADIO VOLUME WENT SILENT. THE STABILITRACK SWITCH, A/C CONTROLS AND RADIO CONTROLS WERE ALL INEFFECTIVE. I NOTICED THE AMP GAUGE WAS BELOW 12 AS IT SEEMED AS IF THE TRUCK ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS UNDERPOWERED. I DROVE TEN MILES HOME AND ALL SYSTEMS RESET BY TURNING TRUCK OFF AND STARTING IT UP AGAIN. THIS IS FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. TRUCK HAS 66K MILES ON IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND THE STABILITRACK WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT HAD TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.
