Silverado 1500

  • 80,000 miles
In motion and at low speed, the vehicle stalls out when idling into a tight turn, like a parking lot or space. it hasn't always cut totally off. Usually the 'stability trac' light comes on with the failure, but some times it just cuts off, and when I crank it restarts right up.

Silverado 1500

  • 43,000 miles
After driving approximately 100 miles I returned back to town. As I was slowing the steering wheel jerked a small amount to the left. I slowed to a stop at an intersection. When accelerating and turning left the steering wheel jerked three times. After that I turned into the wal-mart parking lot. Slowed to make a right turn. This time the wheel jerked very hard to the right and the engine shut off. I was able to stop. Put the truck into park restart the engine and move to a safe location out of traffic.

Silverado 1500

  • 120,000 miles
Stabilitrek flashes and then vehicles steering locks up and the truck dies. Usually it's when I'm going slow and usually it's when I'm turning. This is happening now in August of 2020 but also happened a few years ago and then there was a recall. It's very dangerous. No warning and the truck dies very unexpectedly. Please fix this problem I see others are complaining too

Silverado 1500

  • 72,000 miles
I am having issues with my 2914 Silverado losing power steering and turning off when I place the car in reverse to back into a parking spot. The truck has also cut off randomly when turning the steering wheel in a parking lot. The issue is not constant thus hard to diagnose. I have taken the truck to Chevy twice and the mechanics were not able to recreate the issue.

Silverado 1500

  • 60,205 miles
I was slowing down to make a right turn, I didn't have to come to a complete stop but when the vehicle got below 15mph or so. The steering locked up. And it acted like I had turned the vehicle off. All of the lights went off, inside and out. And the vehicle died. Luckily it didn't cause an accident and it did start up and I was able to get it home but since then the lights flicker and the touch screen radio goes black and won't do anything. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. and the steering feels like one minute you have power steering and the next you don't now.

Silverado 1500 8-cyl

Jul 032020

Silverado 1500

  • 53,300 miles
It started with the truck losing power when making slow speed turns into driveway/parking spot which includes loss of power steering which has caused me to almost crash several times. The power used to come back up but now it is resulting in the truck just turning itself off mid turn and not just on slow turns. It happened when I was making a turn onto a street and I was forced to muscle the truck off the side of the road- no power at all so no power steering-going about 10-15 mph. When driving with cruise control on if you use the turn signal it kicks off the cruise control. The ac will just stop and the truck will just shut off. The whole time all/any of this is happening my dash is telling me stability control is off, steering assist of off drive with care....if the dash has any power that is. The trailer brake system flashes like I am using the brakes when I am sitting in the truck door open, key out. I have unplugged that thinking it was the problem but it didn't change anything. At times it is completely random that all power almost bottoms out and comes back moments later. There is definitely something wrong and as see I am not the only one having these same issues...should investigate and offer recall and get these trucks fixed before someone does crash. My truck only has 53,300 miles on it and it has a new battery and we have checked the alternator. The date below would be when I almost crashed turning the corner and truck died.

Silverado 1500 8-cyl

  • 240,000 miles
It started out as the truck losing all power when entering the truck. No power to the dash or ignition. Then power would return out of nowhere. Lately the truck will lose all power while the truck is running sitting still and moving down the highway. Engine will stay running but no dash no A/C and when the dash returns stabitrac notification is on the screen. Today the truck did this 11 times in 1 hour and even lost steering control while driving down a large highway. While on the side of the highway with the hazards on the dash, controls and A/C intermittently flicked for a full 2 minutes

Jun 192020

Silverado 1500

  • 75,000 miles
Has occurred multiple times with the vehicle was stationary, in motion, on a city street, highway, turning, at a variety of speeds. The vehicle temporarily loses power and power steering. The stabilitrack and steering assist indicators appears on dashboard. Sometimes the power returns, other times I will have to put the vehicle in park, reposition key, and restart the engine. I had vehicle serviced by dealership earlier this year, and my VIN did not match any recalls. They couldn't identify the issue and suggested I replace the battery. I replaced the good battery with a new battery, and still experience this issue. This occurs multiple times a week, sometimes multiple times a day, and has been ongoing for at least a year..

Silverado 1500 8-cyl

  • 87,000 miles
Coming off the interstate going about 75 mph, as I was pulling in to a gas station slowly my steering wheel got really stiff as if I had no power steering. Warning lights came on, radio shut off, A/C shut off, and stability trac was disabled all for about 5 seconds and everything came back on as if nothing had happened. Shortly after I was pulling off from the gas station very slowly and the truck just shut off with no warning.it always seems to start up just fine right after as if nothing happened. Also not sure if this is a related problem but when I'm at a red light behind other vehicles I noticed my headlights dim when I press the brakes or turn the wheel, I can see the voltage meter raise and drop when this happens.yes I've had the alternator and battery checked and that didn't seem to be the problem either.

Silverado 1500

  • 147,000 miles
When attempting to exit my driveway, the steering wheel locked and my truck scraped into a post damaging the driver door and the front panel. This only lasted for a couple of seconds, but it was bad enough. Upon checking the carfax, I found that there was a recall on this particular and serious issue. The dealership failed to check if any recalls was reported on this vehicle. Now my truck is damaged and the dealership refuses to fix my vehicle. I hold them responsible and have reported them to the BBB. We will see what comes out of this if anything.

Silverado 1500 8-cyl

  • 86,500 miles
When driving with the cruise control on at approximately between 55-70 mph the dash flickers and the truck will occasionally will turn off completely for approximately 1 second and then come right back on. This problem will occur also if you tap the brakes after this happens. Upon parking the truck the flickering of the dash can occur more mildly by engaging the brake, turn signals, or high beams. Seems impossible to use the cruise and turn signals to change lanes without this happening. Stability trak error comes up when the truck turns completely off. It has once said something about steering assist going off or something like that.

While driving the vehicle intermittently shuts down and sometimes even restarts, tends to happen at low speeds. Chevrolet ( GM) has disavowed any knowledge that this happens, even though there are 1100 plus google pages about it.
