As I was backing out of my driveway the truck suddenly shut off and the steering wheel jerked hard out of my hand. The screens all went blank. I was halfway onto the road when this happened and luckily the oncoming traffic was able to stop in time. I restarted the car and it did it again. It took three times to get the car going. I immediately called the dealer to take it in for service. On the way to the dealer it happened again and prior to the screen just blacked out only then the ac blower fan surged on and off. The vehicle again shut off as I was turning from dual highway to the dealer and the steering wheel jerked out of my hands and the brakes locked. Also when I backed out that morning the rear felt like their was some slippage. I bought my 2016 Silverado used in 2018 with 24K miles on it. The odometer just turned 50K two days ago, so this vehicle has not been driven hard and has always had proper service.I began researching and there are thousands of the same complaint online so I thought there must be a recall. However, the dealer tells me that there is only a "bulletin" and that since I am out of warranty I have to pay for the known repairs needed to fix this issue that clearly GM is aware of. Repairs are over 1300 dollars! I can not believe that GM knows about such a dangerous problem and will not fix it for owners. How many injuries and deaths must occur before a bulletin warrants becoming a recall? I also noted that the previous owner, right before I bought the vehicle according the the car fax took the vehicle for service due to electrical problems. So this was known by GM and dealer when I bought the truck. Deceitful. I have a family that relies on this vehicle for transportation and now I can't afford to fix it or trade it and it is not safe to drive. Help!

I was attempting to open the door to remove my child, the door would not open.I then began to problem solve the issue and realized the rear passenger door does not lock with key fob or unlock manually or with key fob. The door will lock manually but I can not open the door from inside manually, it will not unlock from the drivers side control unlock, or with the key fob. This is a very serious safety concern, if there was an emergency passengers or driver could not exit through that door.

Started by vehicle with remote start. Rear window defrost was on. I did hear some crackling noise by the window, but after getting things around forgot about it. 20 minutes or so into my drive I started to smell something hot/electrical. Noticed the rear defrost was still on so I shut that off too see if that was causing the hot smell. Moments later the section of rear window on the drivers side exploded with a loud bang. All the glass in that section was shattered and eventually fell out that back (luckily not inside). I was under motion when it happened, but it was on a smooth road, nothing overhanging above (like lines that could drop ice) and not traffic near me. The glass pattern appear like the glass was blown out, not inward like if it had been impacted by an object.

Erratic steering and slow speed?S jerky car dies ground problem

- Washington, DC, USA

About 6 months ago now, under slow speeds and making a turn most of the time, my truck will shut down and jerk the wheel from my hands aggressively. This has happened about 20 times so far. About a week ago, I hit the gas to make a pass, the truck down shifted and shut down on me for about 5 second going down the highway. There has also been times when I've got the brake or put both front windows up and the radio would go out. Can anyone tell me what's going on and what to do. I rely on my truck allot but it is very dangerous to drive like this. When these issues occur the service stabletrack light comes on.

While attempting to make a left turn the "trailer brake system" light appeared on the dash and the steering locked up causing me to drive straight into the woods nearly hitting a tree. The truck lost all power including lights and then everything came back on as normal and the steering was no longer locked up. A week prior while sitting still at a drive through window the same incident with the steering lock up and warning light happened while attempting to pull out. It was brief and all systems returned to normal.

- Garden City, MI, USA

While turning onto a road, I turned the steering wheel approximately 20% and suddenly the steering wheel kicked back hard nearly breaking my wrist. Once I pulled off I was able to repeat the process several times in either direction, I have video of this issue. When it kicked back, I would lose all electrical power to dash instrumentation and also upon power coming back on, I would get stabilitrak errors and the vehicle and traction controlled would be turned off.
