In our truck the power steering has been off and on since 2017. We called and visited multiple dealerships who admitted GMC/Chevy knows there is a problem but our vehicle vin was not associated with any fixes. Since April 2021 we have had zero power steering, also the stabilitrak light has always come on at the time of power steering loss. We have always had to use this truck for work and bought a 4 cyl for that exact purpose because its good on gas. I'm a nurse and travel sometimes 200+ miles daily for my job. I've had multiple near misses since the beginning of this problem and so has my husband, that could've ended very badly due to losing power steering in the middle of a turn etc. Well, my husband did have an accident January 15, 2021 when he had no power steering on a major highway. He was unable to evade a crash in front of him due to the steering loss. We are in an impossible situation and no dealership (they say this is an issue "way over dealership level") will help. GMC/ Chevy doesn't care, there is " no fix available" even though at May this year we have finally been added to the recall. WHY IS IT I HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT MY OWN AND MY HUSBANDS LIFE WHENEVER ONE OF US HAS TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. The recall LITERALLY STATES driving will increase the risk of a crash. WHY IS IT OK" WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP US" PLEASE

When slowing down and then accelerating afterward while in traffic the vehicle does not down shift to the correct gear. The vehicle will then sputter and will be very sluggish to accelerate. This happens while in motion as well as from a complete stop. I was nearly rear ended while making a right turn into traffic and the truck would not find the correct gear and thus would not accelerate enough to get out of the way from oncoming traffic. Several times I thought that the truck was going to kill because it was sputtering so much when in the incorrect gear. Truck also wobbles more than usual when turning and makes a popping sound in a turn. Also, radio acts like it has a mind of its own. Navigation will go haywire as if someone is touching the screen, but no one is touching it. Radio will change channels on its own and volume will increase and decrease without any driver input.

The power steering goes out without warning, stbilitrak also. Car rattles in the front steering area when ging over bumps in the road. There is a recall for 1/15-3/15 build date only which is insane because mine built in 11/14 has the same parts and the same defects. Dealer and GM refuse to help. Claim there is no fix when they know there is. It is even listed on the Chevy and nthsa websites
