Power steering failure. Truck was moving at approximately 20mph while turning through an intersection. Could not make it through the intersection. Dealership says 2 components are bad: The 'steering angle sensor'. and the 'steering gear torque sensor.' The torque sensor is subject to NHTSA recall #21V213, but the 'angle sensor' is apparently not subject to any recall yet. Truck is not driveable without both being fixed.

The power steering continues to randomly go out. There has already been a recall on this issue but the dealership (carl black, kennesaw ga) says that it was closed in 2016 and refuses to fix it for free. I filed a complaint with you several months ago because of this and recently received a notice from you that it may have been recalled again. However, the dealership continues to refuse to fix it for free. The consumer referenced recall 21V213. The consumer stated the power steering continues to go out while driving.

Has occurred twice. Vehicle has a sudden loss of power steering which causes extreme difficulty in steering (70 years old). Dealer indicated that GM is aware of the issue, but they have no corrections. The steering may come back after the vehicle is parked. Several days after the first incident, it went out again while I was making a turn. Extremely dangerous. Both issues occurred while the vehicle was in motion.

On 3 separate occasions in the past week my service power steering and stability track warning lights have come on while driving and my car experienced a total loss of power steering. On the first occasion I was on a straight section of highway approaching a curve. As I entered the curve the power steering failed nearly causing me to drive straight through the curve. I pulled over turned my vehicle off and the alerts cleared immediately. On the second occasion a week later, I was pulling out of my driveway at a low rate of speed and the same lights illuminated and power steering was lost. I again shut the car off however the failures stayed present and remained present until the following day. I drove to work with no power steering with the intention of taking it to the Chevy dealership closest to my office. While at work I researched my viin and noticed GM issued a recall for this problem on March 25th, 3 days after my first failure and 3 days prior to the second. I contacted the dealership and they stated no remedy was available on the recall and I needed to contact GM to obtain approval to have the work done at the dealership under recall work. I contacted GM and was told although there's an active recall for my viin, I would have to take my vehicle to the dealership and pay for the repairs. If GM is aware of a safety issue and issued a recall, why should I the consumer pay for the repairs? I was told a manger would contact me for further resolution and have yet to be contacted. Yesterday, one day after speaking to GM I have experienced the total loss of power steering for the 3rd time and it has yet to clear itself and I'm expecting the intermittent problem is now a permanent one. I have 2 young children and it's unsafe for me and my family to be in this vehicle. GM has acknowledged that with a recall, yet fails to act on it.

I bought the vehicle for my son. On September 13, the power steering failed on a turn on a city street, and he was unable to control the vehicle and hit a parked car on the opposite side of the street. The insurance company paid for a portion of our vehicle expense, but not the entire note which included taxes, license, fees, extended warranty and interest.

As I was driving, I slowed to make a left- turn onto a city street when there was a sudden loss of power steering. It was very difficult to steer but I made it to the side of the road. The vehicle did not lose power or shut off. The message said there was a loss in power steering and to seek service. I turned off the vehicle. Upon restarting, the vehicle drove normal. I drove about 20 miles. I was on a major highway in heavier traffic, on a straighaway but again was slowing down when there was another sudden loss of power steering. I struggled to make it into a parking lot. The issue did not immediately reset as before. I sat for about 20 minutes and tried it 3 or 4 times but it continued to give the message that the there was a loss in power steering. It finally "reset". I drove it to a nearby family members house until I could get it to the Chevrolet dealer Monday morning. I saw online where there is a recall 2015 Chevy Colorado for power steering issue. Unfortunately, the dealership informed me that my 2015 Chevy Colorado was not under recall because it was not within in the recall manufactured dates between Jan and March. They insisted I would have to pay $139 in order to get my vehicle diagnosed. I did not have the funds to get the vehicle assessed but am convinced the NHTSA needs to consider expanding the recall for this issue. It is a safety hazard. Additionally, I contacted GM for redress. Again, they insisted I would be required to pay $139 diagnosis fee before they could assess this identical safety recall issue.

My power steering went out on a 45mph turn and nearly lost control of my truck. I took it to the dealer for them to say there is no recalls on it. If I were an older person and this happened to them I'm sure they would of lost control because I really had to put a lot of effort to get my truck back on the road. This is definitely a safety issue and it should be taken care of by Chevrolet.

Service power steering, drive with care and service stability track lights turn on due to a defective steering gearbox according to the dealer shop. It makes the wheel to bind and gets hard to turn. It has happened during driving (in motion) in the middle of the streets, also at stops or relights when fully stopped, and also while in "parking" (stationary) and while turning. It has not happened on a highway. Every time I turned the car off and let it sit for some minutes and turned the car back on then the lights would reset by themselves and I would be able to drive normally again, but then it randomly will happen again and again. First time I took it the dealer they said the angle sensor needed calibration and that the problem was fixed with that, but then few days later I experienced the same problem and on the second time I took it to the dealer, they found out it was the steering gearbox (part # 84670808). I noticed this problem already has a recall. Recall is for 2015 Colorado manufactured January 6, 2015 to March 17, 2015. My vehicle falls into this category but hasn't been recalled. This is a safety concern, it can cause accidents due not lack of control of vehicle.

I was driving around curve at approximately 45 mph and my power steering went out. I had very little control over steering at this point, but finally was able to navigate to the side of road. Had to turn truck off and then restarted, truck did same thing few miles down the road with notification of power steering failure. Few more miles and stabilitrack malfunction began being displayed. This is very dangerous, since you have very little steering control when this happens.
