I experience frequent loss of power steering while driving that almost caused an accident on the freeway. This happened consecutive days. Other times upon starting vehicle the alert of stabilizer track would turn on in the dashboard. I followed the manual instructions and it did not improve. There were days I could not use my vehicle at all leaving me to ask for a ride to places or being stranded, as well. I brought my vehicle to the chevy dealership today and they are going through my warranty of which I have to pay my deductible. I think this should be a recall and I should not have to pay out of pocket, especially since there is a large number of owners outside of the 2015 recall who are having the same issues. Please resolve this and make it so that the customer does not have to pay.

I have had my 2016 Chevy Colorado Z71 now for almost a year. I keep loosing my power steering and stabilitrack while driving down the highway. I can turn the truck off for a few minutes and start it again then it is sometimes fine for a couple days or it just keeps going out. Was almost in serious accident from this issue. I have taken my truck in to my local Chevy dealer and said it needed some updates on the system, so they updated the system and it was fine for a couple days but the problem is still there, I keep loosing my power steering. They told me at was going to cost me $2000 to have it fixed. I do not see why I should have to pay that kind of money when it is clearly a safety issue that should of had a recall on. What can be done about the safety issue I am having with my truck?

General Motors is recalling over 60,000 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks from the 2015 model year to fix a faulty part within the power steering assembly that could cause the trucks-?? power steering to stop working. If the power steering fails while the vehicle is in motion, the driver may suddenly need to exert more effort to steer the vehicle, which could increase the risk of a crash. This problem is especially pronounced at lower speeds, such as when maneuvering in a parking lot. A GM spokesperson told CR that the automaker is not aware of any crashes or injuries related to this recall. The problem is due to a poor electrical connection within the power steering system. If the power steering fails, drivers may also notice an illuminated warning light on the instrument panel and hear a warning chime. The problem may occur while driving or immediately after the vehicle has been started. GM dealers will replace the faulty part free of charge as soon as replacement parts become available. ABOVE IS A DETAILED REFERENCE. I AM EXPERIENCING THIS ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. EVEN THOUGH MY CAR IS EXPERIENCING THIS EXACT PROBLEM, -??my car does not fall into the specified model for a recall-??

Power steering will stop working while driving vehicle. Light comes on and says service power steering and stabilitrak. Will correct after pulling over and turning car off and on. This has happened more than a few times and with me driving children through the mountains.

I was going around a traffic circle when the power steering suddenly went out with no warning causing me to almost hit a stone wall. I received a code. Something about the steering gear and the steering position sensor. It appears to be the same problem as the 2015 Colorado has but the dealership would not acknowledge it being the case. This repair cost me over $2000 and almost caused a serious accident. Please get Chevy to add the 2016 vehicles to the 2015 recall. I'm guessing not enough people have died from this safety issue yet!

Stabilitrak and power steering warnings lights come on randomly when driving the vehicle resulting in no traction control and loss of power steering which has pulled me out of my lane off the road and into oncoming traffic on multiple occasions. The issue was confirmed by hirlinger Chevrolet. There is a recall for this exact issue right now but I am being told that my vehicle wasnt effected by the recall because it was months after the recall date.

I own a 2016 Chevy Colorado. Suddenly power testing was lost during driving. This has happened on 3 separate occasions now. I tow a camper with my children and fear this will result in a crash with injuries. Please look into this as it is the same problem the 2015 models had. Please have GMC issue a recall to fix this safety issue.

- Rio Linda , CA, USA

On two separate occasions within a wk less than 100 miles the power steering has went out while driving. I get two dash warnings one saying service power steering the other saying service stabilitrac. I done some research and found out that gm recalled over 60000 vehicles with this exact issue for 2015 models however mine is a 2016. I-??ve also seen online numerous 2016 owners other than myself having the same problem I am. I feel that this recall should extend 2016 models. My truck was purchased Nov of 2015 and currently has less than 63k miles.

Starting around 9 months ago, I have had several incidents of the power steering stop working. Some of these have occurred while driving at highway speeds. The problem randomly appears and is extremely unsafe. The issue has gradually starting happening more often. Sometimes, the issue will clear after turning the vehicle off and back on. Other times, it will clear after driving for a while. The symptoms are exactly the same as those mentioned in the recall for the 2015 Colorado under recall #15595.

Driving down the road and suddenly the power steering went out. And when it goes out on this vehicle it is extra-ordinarily hard to steer, had I been in a turn I would have lost control of the vehicle. This is the 2nd time this has occurred and both times turning the vehicle off and on again fixes the issue. But this will ultimately result in a crash at some point and should be investigated with urgency.

When it first happened, I cranked my vehicle and seconds later, a chime and two messages went across my dash saying "Stabilitrack disabled." "Power steering disabled." and both were inoperable. I restarted the truck, and it ran fine. Happened again two weeks later. Then two weeks after that, it happened suddenly WHILE DRIVING down the road. Again, it worked properly after restarting, but it's started to be a constant. Now it immediately shows "Stabilitrack disabled" after starting and the power steering goes after about 10-15 minutes of driving, like clockwork. There were no lights on or any other warning indicators prior to this happening. It was a sudden issue with an otherwise unproblematic vehicle. I see there was a recall for a bad wiring harness connection that caused exactly this for the 2015 year model. Mine is a 2016 and no recall exists. I've seen a few other forum posts stating their 2016 has done this as well. I have not yet taken it to a mechanic/dealer, but that is my next action. It is available for inspection. Needless to say, this is extremely unsafe for both myself and other drivers on the road. Losing the ability to (positively) turn at an inopportune time could be catastrophic.

My power steering on my 2016 Chevrolet Colorado went out on a 30mph turn and nearly lost control of my truck. As I was driving, I slowed to make a stop on a city street when there was a sudden loss of power steering. It was very difficult to steer and turn 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. The traction control and stability track warning lights turned on. I turned off the vehicle. This problem happened about 4 months ago and had not reappeared until the last few days 06/19/2021. Now it happen twice since. Upon restarting, the vehicle drove normal. It is a safety hazard. This is definitely a safety issue and it should be taken care of by Chevrolet. This should be forced to be repaired. This is a safety hazard for the public, the operator, and anyone riding in the vehicle. I will be bringing it to a deal in Freehold, NJ. 1 Affected Product
