Very scary!! Power steering completly locked up and continuing to lock up while turning. This is not something to take lightly as there had been no prior warning. Simple drive to the grocery store almost caused an accident while turning. Had to yank the wheel to correct as it was completely stuck in the turn position. Check light on, inspected by mechanic and they are indicating that this is a service power steering and -??Stabilitrak-Stability control notifications. Checked with dealership and they have the 2015 models with this issue that has been recalled. The 2016 models have not. This is the same issue and someone is going to get hurt!!

I was driving 55 mph on a country road when a warning notification appear on my dash saying service Stabilitrack. My truck suddenly started to pull hard towards the berm of the road and was extremely hard to steer. I then got a message on the dash that service Power Steering. It was extremely hard to turn taking both hands to make a turn. I drove it straight to the dealership.

problem #203

Apr 132023

Colorado

  • miles
I get an intermittent power steering and Stabilitrak warning when driving, and the warning causes my power steering to shut down. The fault clears when I stop the truck and shut off the engine, but it reoccurs at regular intervals ranging from once per week to twice in one day. I took the truck to my local Chevrolet dealer, and they did a programming upgrade to the power steering module and a front-end alignment. This did not fix the problem. It appears that my truck has the same fault that caused the 2015 model to be recalled, so I would expect the dealer to be able to identify the problem.
