Power steering keeps going out. I will be driving and it will randomly go out, the shops can't find anything wrong with it, and keeps resetting the code and then it goes out again in a month or so. The dashboard information gives a warning about the power steering. This has been ongoing for over a year.

My power steering will go completely out while driving. My steering wheel will begin to shake uncontrollably while braking to slow down and when I am at a complete stop. Very hard to steer while this is all happening.

The steering wheel shakes and it wants to go to the right and when I fix the wheel to go straight the car makes a beeping noise and then the wheel locks up. It does this when moving forward or turning.

About 1 month ago the steering whell began to shutter just at highway speeds. It progressed since then to more noticable shaking of the steering wheel at all speeds with intermittent shutting off of the power steering. Now the power steering shuts off almost immediately after start up. Making the vehicle practically undrivable and unsafeto operate. I saw that there have been recalls for this vehicle for this problem but when I checked the VIN it says there are "0" unrepaired recalls. So since I've owned this vehicle for about 2.5 years that a previous owner may have repaired it already?

I have owned my car for over 5 years never had an issue until 2wks ago. I was leaving the store and had no power steering. I'm not car savvy, but a know enough to get by. Thought my fluid was low but found out my car has hydraulic power steering and the rack was prolly bad, but left the auto store and the power steering returned. And has been in and out until I found this recall. Luckily both the grocery store and auto store were in the same parking lot and my drive home was only a half mile,

As I was driving, my steering wheel would just shake. Especially when I try to turn the steering wheel left. There'll be a clicking sound then it stiffens up and I'm unable to turn, then it stops. Yesterday, 12.20.2020, I was driving with my 2yr old in the car and my steering completely stopped altogether in the middle of me turning the corner off the highway. I had to struggle to turn the wheel to get all the way home to safety. Someone please help me 😭 thanks!

I have owned my 2006 Chevy Malibu since later 2018. It is now Nov 1st 2020. A few months after I got the vehicle I had issues. I have had all recalls replaced by fredericksburg Virginia Chevy dealership (they say that they did?) the entire time I have owned this vehicle the steering vibrates at high speeds. Also the entire time I've owned this car, when I speed up any hills my steering locks up my battery light comes on and the car pulls to the left or right depending. This is extremely unsafe! dealer didn't know what could cause it. I learned to immediately take my foot off the gas and the steering goes back to normal. This is not easy on a curvy hill road. This can cause a serious wreck. I have a 10 month old baby. This is frightening if it one day it doesn't fix by taking my foot off the pedal. Now my steering is stiff and is so hard to turn when driving at slow speed. The steering motor recall has already been replaced says the dealer. So why is it going bad again" it has only been 30,000 miles later. Why am I having a stiff steering wheel again if they replaced it? the tc light came on within hours of the steering going stiff. Why does Chevy distribute vehicles with such safety issues" I should not have to pay for the steering to be 'fixed/replaced' again! dangerous Chevy vehicle.

Sudden loss of power steering.

- Steubenville, OH, USA

Electronic power steering went out while driving it home.

- San Antonio, TX, USA

Steering went out on my 06 with only 35K on it. Chevy would not 'participate ' in the repair even though there was a recall #14116B. I was driving on the city streets driving straight when the steering failed due to this faulty product, but fortunately I was not hurt. I was a Chevy supporter because my dad has always owned them, but now we will campaign against Chevrolet and their lack of care. I will upload documents when I receive the repair bill from our local Chevy dealer who also was not much help in this matter. The steering outage was as described in the recall.
