My vehicle gives "service power steering" and "stabilitrac not working" and "service 4wd" console messages then THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT WHILE I'M DRIVING and I need to wrench hard on the steering wheel to make turns. It's scary because if I'm required to make a quick or sharp turn to avoid anything, I may not be able to avoid crashing. 2015s were issued a recall for this issue. 2016s also have this same issue with 11 complaints, why hasn't a recall been issued for this year since the problem is still occurring? The safety rating for losing power steering is 8.7 Pretty Bad. I contacted GM Customer Care 1-800-462-8782 and was told I was ineligible for cost assistance but they were aware of this problem. I filed a claim while on the phone with GM, since it is apparent GM isn't concerned with product or customer safety. Then I contacted National Highway Administration (NHTSA.gov) 1-888-327-4236 and filed an Office Defects Investigation ODI Safety complaint. The way this safety issue has been handled is unacceptable.

I was traveling on hwy 8 at 65 mph when power steering without warning quit working. I was on a curve and in the other lane before i could get back control of the PU. I took the PU to the repair shop but didn't even make it home before it did it again. Pick up is back in the shop now. If there had been other traffic at the time it could have been deadly.

Loss of power steering control while driving at high and low speeds. Almost caused accident with young children in car. Symptoms identical to 2015 same make and model recall. Dealership says bad sensor but wants to replace the whole rack and pinion as the sensor is built in. Very dangerous

- Orange, CA, USA

My 2016 keeps losing the power steering and stability traction. Same problem the 2015 had a recall on. The exact same part number. I almost wrecked yesterday while making a turn when it went out on me. I had to find a safe place to pullover and shut my truck off and restart it so the power steering would work. There are several complaints on the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado's that the recall was for on the 2015. This happens all of the time. Some time 10 times a day and some days non at all.

- Bayfield, CO, USA

While driving on a 2 lane road, a service power steering warning light came on and there was an immediate loss of power steering assist. This happened during a turn and the steering without the electric power assist is extremely difficult. I was able to complete the turn by using both hands on the steering wheel. I was able to pull over, turn off the vehicle and turn it back one which reset the issue. This has now happened at least 3 other times while driving and while parked. Took the vehicle to the dealer and they noted that there was an error code in the system relating to lost communication/invalid data to the DTC (code U0101). Dealer reset code and "checked" connections. Could not reproduce the issue. However the issues if intermittent. There was a code indicating that an issue occurred but no action taken by dealer. This is the same issue that the 2015 Colorado/Canyon trucks experienced for which a recall was issued.

- Gainesville, GA, USA

While driving the power steering failed with associated Stabilitrak warning. Fortunately it happened while driving slowly and there was not a concern for safety. Though it was very hard, the car was driven home.

Power steering fault Twice so far I-??ve been driving and get greeted with a warning that power steering has failed, followed immediately after with a fault in the power steering that turns that system off & Stabilitrak light comes on had loss of power steering unable to turn the steering wheel & becomes hard to steer.

- Seguin, TX, USA

I-??ve previously looked into the steering recall for the 2015 Colorado and my 2016 vehicle is doing the exact same thing AGAIN. My power steering/stabilitrak has gone out multiple times while driving on the road. This is a major safety concern as it will cause an accident, due to not being able to steer properly. I love my truck so far but this issue must be handled like it was for the 2015 models asap.

Power steering and stabiltrack fail while driving.

- Clyde, TX, USA

My power steering has quit working and the stabilitrak and t/c light both came on. This has happened a few times. I-??ve had it to the dealership and looked at and I was told it needed a battery. $ 240 later, it did it again about a mile and a half from the dealership, so I took it back. If I turn the truck off and restart it, it goes back to normal. I-??ve seen this same issue on forums on 2015 models.

- Barboursville , WV, USA

Stabilitrak issue again. Power steering went out in the middle of driving.

- Greenville, SC, USA

On four separate days, over six months, the power steering failed while driving, resulting in VERY difficult steering. We managed to pull over. A warning light appeared on the dash simultaneous to this occurring. Upon shutting the car off and restarting, the issue vanished.

- Atascadero, CA, USA

Stabilitrak and power steering failure at random. Will happen in the middle of driving the vehicle. This is a continuous issue.

- Greenville, SC, USA

Stabilitrak failure message followed by the power steering shutting off. It has occurred numerous times which requires pulling over and shutting off the vehicle and restarting the vehicle. Sometimes it immediately occurs again. Depending how fast you are driving it can result in an accident. I discovered that the 2015 Colorado's had the same issue and were recalled by Chevy. I was told the repair is going to cost about $1800

Steering is locking up when taking turns at slow or fast speeds. It appears very similar to reports I-??ve read on the recall for 2015 Chevy Colorados for the steering torque sensor. My vehicle is not safe to drive at this point.

- San Antonio, TX, USA

Power steering shuts off while driving. Once stopped, turned off and turned back on it will work. The issue being it continues to do this. It is a huge safety risk and how they recalled 2015, but not 2016 is very frustrating when the same issue continues to happen. We have called corporate, but they have not been willing to fix their problem. All we got from them was sorry it is not a recall for that specific year. Letting them know it is the exact same issue that was recalled for the earlier year, but not this one was not okay. Just trying to make sense of this all. Why no recall yet?

- Northwood, IA, USA

I-??ve looked into the steering recall for the 2015 Colorado and my 2016 vehicle is doing the exact same thing. I-??ve owned this vehicle for only 3 weeks now and my power steering/stabilitrak has gone out twice. One of those incidents, which was today, was while I was merging onto the highway. This is a major safety concern as it will cause an accident, due to not being able to steer properly. I love my truck so far but this issue should be handled like it was for the 2015 models.
