Steering shaft column torque sensor assembly part on 2008 4 cylinder Malibu replaced by Chevrolet dealer in Oct, 2014 as part of Chevrolet recall # N140115 at about 75,000 miles of use -it was still functioning properly when replaced. The replacement part was redesigned but required replacement after only another 49,000 miles by the same redesigned part. Perhaps the recall remedy would have been more effective had the power steering motor controller unit also been replaced at about 75000 miles as recall # N140115 specified it could have been.

Power steering stopped working when stopped to make a left turn across 3 lanes of traffic, when clear.it did not work in the 3 miles to home. It was frightening. I drove to the repair shop(non dealer).they quoted a repair cost and indicated there had been an expired bulletin. I told them to repair the vehicle. Total charges were $708.30. The part replaced, #23232310 was replaced by the GM dealer on Mar 03,2015 @78,311 miles on bulletin # 14117 at no charge without any previous issues. Requested total refund from dealer - they said call GM - (case #[xxx])who said the period of 10 years/150,000 miles had expired. Am I without recourse in this matter" a good part lasted almost 7 years, replaced by a part that lasted 5+ years. I wonder if this new part will correct the problem or is it a design problem? will you help me" information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Came home from work, parked my car. Everything was normal. Next day I went to start it and leave for work. When I turned on the car, the power steering alert appeared in the information center. Very hard to steer. Thought it just needed some power steering fluid but learned this car does not take any. Started doing some research and found out that many people have issues with this car and power steering.

Random lose of electric power steering, on highway at freeway speeds.. the steering wheel will lock and cause you to be unable to keep the car in control..

Power steering sensor kit failure, known issue on this GM model and there was a recall for this year model on this issue yet didn't cover this VIN number, it is my belief that the recall for this issue wasnt wide enough to include this VIN # part replacement P/N 23232310 $708.73

- Commerce Township , MI, USA

When I start my car, the steering wheel is locked up and a message stating "power steering" comes across the main screen. My vehicle was stationary. The issue only continues to get worse over time, and the current recall for this doesn't seem to cover my VIN number or yield an open recall. It is possible the person who had this car before me had the issue fixed and it is now happening again. Only after restarting the vehicle multiple times am I able to turn the wheel all the while it shakes back and forth as if there's an issue with the steering column.

Steering will lock up sometimes it say power steering on warning, sometimes the traction control light comes on I can correct by putting in park shutting off the vehicle and restarting, then it goes back to normal operation - I am worried I might get rear ended if I can't get over in time this has happened several times but most recently three times last week and so far twice this week happens when going into a turn
