power Steering quit while driving.
- Caddo Mills, TX, USA
The power steering stopped working and my wife had to make an emergency stop on I 95. We turned the vehicle off and restarted it and the power steering worked again for awhile. The next day it happened 2 more times. I think this is the same issue as the 2015 recall. I called my GMC dealer and they said they could not help me because my Vin was not on the recall list.

- Courtland, VA, USA
Power steering shuts off while driving. I have to stop the vehicle and turn off and then re-start to get the power steering back working. This can happen at any time regardless of when or how long I've been driving. The power steering seems to shut off for no reason.
- Tampa, FL, USA
On three occasions the power steering malfunction warning came on. Brought it to Prime GMC. Both times software updates were performed. On third time they said needs new steering column. The steering is very difficult at low speeds. I can clear situation by turning off and back on.
- Weymouth, MA, USA
The power steering intermittently fails, and the vehicle is almost impossible to steer during the failure. I took the vehicle to GM dealer, Ultimate Auto GMC/BUICK in Mountain Home, Arkansas. They told me the fix would be to replace a power steering module and the cost would be $1,600. I was aware the previous year's model had the same problem and was recalled. I called GM and they would not help with a recall. To me it is obvious that my truck has the same problem as the 2015 model, but they won't admit it. My safety was at risk because I could hardly turn the truck. I do get a warning message on the dash display.

- Macclenny, FL, USA
Vehicle power steering and stability controls has intermittent failures while operating the vehicle.
- Macclenny, FL, USA
The power steering has gone out while driving the vehicle 4 times in the last 3 months. The last time, my wife almost had an accident. She was turning into S driveway and last power steering and almost hit another vehicle because she had trouble turning the truck. I found out GMC is recalling about 60,000 vehicles for this issue but my vehicle is not on the list so I want to report the problem to your Agency so you have it on record in case I have an accident
- Savannah, GA, USA
I will be driving down the interstate and all of a sudden, my power steering would go out. Sometimes it would go out just driving down a residential road going 25 or 30 miles an hour. I would have to stop someplace, turn it off and wait a while and then turn it back on and it would work again. If I don't wait long enough, the power steering still wouldn't work after restarting. When this would happen, the "service power steering" light would come on. Also, "stabilitrack" light would come on.
