2015 GMC YUKON XL Steering Problems

My engine went out, and I had to have it rebuilt. There was a check engine light on. My steering goes out and in without warning while driving. I have talked to the dealership, and they stated that all safety recalls were done on my vehicle. My safety and those of others were put at risk when the steering failed. I almost crashed my vehicle in traffic. There were no warning messages prior to the failure. I did see that there was a recall in 2019 and the dealership will not inspect the vehicle without payment.

My car is giving me all kinds of warnings, parking assist off, rear back up, trailer brake, the radio sounds go off, blinker sounds go off, while trying to park power steering locks up, it will die in the middle of a turn. It’s doing everything The 2015 recall was created for. I do not think my car was fixed during the recall period. It is very hazardous.

My Wife was driving at a low speed completing a right hand turn through an intersection and as she completed the turn the vehicle completely lost all steering. The vehicle ran up onto a curb but she was able to stop before she hit a poll. The vehicle was towed home and I found that there was no power to the steering wheel controls, the horn didn't work and there were Electronic Steering warnings. I also found that the steering wheel could spin freely like a top without any movement of the wheels. Upon examination in the engine compartment I found that the bottom of the steering shaft was completely disconnected and the single bolt that holds the 2 pieces together was missing. I took the vehicle to the local GMC dealership and they conformed that the bolt was missing and the shafts came apart which lead to the steering...

The contact stated that while driving at 75 MPH, the steering wheel hardened as both a warning chime and a service power steering warning message appeared on the instrument panel.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC YUKON XL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS WITHOUT WARNING, THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO OPERATE IN EITHER DIRECTION. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE ALSO STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THOMPSON BUICK GMC LOCATED AT 2600 WAKE FOREST RD. RALEIGH NC, 27609, (919)809-6217, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE STEERING GEAR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

WHEN PARKING THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP, THE MONITOR THAT PLAYS THE RADIO SHUTS OF AND MY SPEEDOMETER MONITOR SHOWS 3 TO 4 DIFFERENT WARNINGS SUCH AS BRAKE ASSIST OFF, PARK ASSIST OFF, STABILITRAK AND POWER STEERING. THIS IS WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION AS WELL AS WHEN I PUT IT IN PARK.

I WAS DRIVING UP NORTH IN 4WHEEL DRIVE AND TRANSMISSION CAM OUT OF GEAR I STOPPED THE VECHILE AND RESTARTED NOW THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT SHIFT PROPERLY AND STEERING IS HARD TO STEER AND IT GOES IN AND OUT

THIS IS THE SECOND COMPLAINT THAT I HAVE MADE TO NHTSA. THE FIRST TIME, THE VEHICLE WAS SPONTANEOUSLY TURNING OFF AND SHUTTING DOWN DURING BACKING IN AND TURNS CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS RESULTED IN A RECALL, AND A "SOFTWARE UPDATE" THAT WAS DONE TWICE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. RIGHT AND BACK PASSENGER LIGHTS BEGAN TO BLINK ON AND OFF AND WATER GETS INTO THE BRAKE LIGHT. THE DEALER TOLD ME THIS WAS M ISSUE. THIS TIME THE 4WD SERVICE LIGHT CAME AND THE CAR APPEARED TO BE STUCK IN "4WD LOW" MAKING IT "DRAG" AT A REDUCED SPEED WHEN DRIVING. ALSO, THE "SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE" LIGHT CAME ON REPEATEDLY. I HAVE NEVER USED THE TRAILER BRAKE. I TOOK IT INTO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER, SELLERS GMC IN FARMINGTON HILLS, MI. THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A NEW "MODULE", SO I PAID TO HAVE THAT DONE. WITHIN ONE DAY THE SAME...

I'VE EXPERIENCED 2 POWER STEERING FAILURES IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS. FIRST, THE EPS FAILED (WHICH WAS RECALLED FOR MANY OF THE SAME MODEL--BUT NOT MINE) WHICH I REPLACED. NOW, POWER STEERING FAILED AGAIN, THIS TIME THE STEERING GEAR PER THE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD! WITH THE MOST RECENT FAILURE, IF YOUR HANDS ARE NOT GRASPING THE STEERING WHEEL FIRMLY, THE CAR WILL VEER SHARPLY TO EITHER THE RIGHT OR LEFT. AND STEERING THIS BEAST WITH NO POWER STEERING IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE. MANY DRIVERS WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO OVERPOWER THE DEAD ELECTRIC STEERING SYSTEM. THE FIRST WARNING CAME AS LOUD SCREECHING SOUNDS FROM THE STEERING AT LOW SPEED. IT FELT AS THOUGH THE POWER STEERING MOTOR WAS INTERMITTENT, AND "JOLTING" THE STEERING WHEEL. THE SCREECHING STOPPED AT SPEED, BUT THE JITTERING/JOLTING OF THE ELECTRIC SYSTEM CONTINUED. THIS IS A SERIOUS MALFUNCTION, ESPECIALLY WITH SO FEW MILES ON...
