Intermittent loss of power steering while driving and at start up. Warning indicators flash "Service Power Steering Drive With Care" and "Service Stabilitrak." Most of the time, when you turn off the truck and turn it back on again, the message will clear and all will be fine again. However, a week or two will go by and it happens again.

Your power steering suddenly stopped working while driving, making the steering wheel much harder to turn. No warning lights appeared on your dashboard to alert you to the problem. Your local dealer confirmed there was no recall available for your vehicle's VIN, but when you consulted an independent mechanic, they identified this as a known issue covered under NHTSA Campaign 21V213000. Repairing this will likely involve diagnosing and replacing faulty power steering components or the steering control module.

FURTHERMORE, WHEN THE WARNING COMES ON TO "SERVICE THE STABILITRAK" OR "SERVICE POWER STEERING" NO CODES SHOW UP WHEN I SCAN THE CAR. SO THE PROBLEM OCCURS AND THE CAR DOESN'T EVEN REGISTER THAT IT IS HAPPENING. WHAT'S WORSE WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON THERE IS NO RECORD THAT THE CAR EVER CODED TO BEGIN WITH. I HAVE ALREADY GONE ROUND AND ROUND WITH DEALERSHIPS AND GM AND THEY ALL GIVE ME THE SAME RUN AROUND. "BRING IT IN AND WE WILL TRY TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. OR YOU CAN DRIVE IT IN WITHOUT POWER STEERING." SERIOUSLY? THAT'S THE BEST THEY CAN DO.

I HAVE A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO WITH ABOUT 54,000 MILES AND PURCHASED IT USED IN 2018 FROM POHANKA CHEVROLET WITH ABOUT 22,000. WHILE DRIVING UNDER NORMAL HIGHWAY CONDITIONS ON JULY 02, 2019, MY TRUCK EXPERIENCED AN ABRUPT LOSS OF POWER STEERING. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY, TURN OFF THE VEHICLE, AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. POWER STEERING FUNCTION RETURNED. I INSPECTED THE POWER STEERING FLUID AND NOTED THAT THERE WAS A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT IN THE RESERVOIR. I CONTINUED DRIVING WITH NO ISSUE UNTIL TWO DAYS LATER WHEN THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN WHILE DRIVING. I STOPPED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE LIKE BEFORE WITH THE POWER STEERING RETURNING ON RESTART. HOWEVER, THE SAME ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN WITHIN MINUTES OF DRIVING. IT HAPPENED A TOTAL OF FOUR TIES ON TWO SEPARATE DAYS. ON FRIDAY, 05 JULY I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY NORMAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND THEY DIAGNOSED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS DUE TO A MALFUNCTIONING STEERING GEAR TORQUE SENSOR THAT WOULD COST $1,962 TO REPLACE. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE FURTHER AND FOUND THAT THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WAS REPLICATED IN RECALL BULLETIN 15595A. HOWEVER, MY 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO WAS NOT COVERED IN THAT RECALL. IT SEEMS POSSIBLE THAT THE ISSUE NOTED IN 15595A MAY HAVE BEEN MORE EXPANSIVE THAN WAS ORIGINALLY DISCOVERED.

THE PROBLEM I EXPERIENCE IS IDENTICAL TO THE ISSUE DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL; ON TOP OF THIS, MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS AROUND 43,000 MILES. LOSS OF POWER STEERING GIVEN MY VEHICLES LOW MILEAGE, GOOD MAINTAINENCE RECORD AND THAT I HAVE NEVER PLACED ANY SIGNIFICANT MECHANICAL STRAIN OR BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT CLEARLY INDICATES TO ME, PARTICULARLY GIVEN THE STRIKINGLY APPLICABLE RECALL I MENTIONED, THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURING ERROR.

I DROVE A FEW MORE DAYS WITHOUT ISSUE BUT I DID NOTICE A KNOCKING SOUND COMING FROM THE FRONT. THE FOLLOWING WEEK THERE WERE A FEW TIMES WHERE THE STEERING DID NOT IMMEDIATELY RESPOND. ON 2/22/17, I WENT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE, BUT THEY DID SECURE A LOOSE FRONT FOG LIGHT TO FIX THE KNOCKING.

I CONTINUED TO EXPERIENCE THE KNOCKING AND SUBTLE ISSUES WHERE THE STEERING DID NOT IMMEDIATELY RESPOND WHEN CORNING. AROUND MARCH 18TH, I AGAIN STARTED TO EXPERIENCE THE LOCKING. ON MARCH 20TH, IT HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 20 TIMES OR MORE. ON 3/22/17, I WAS BACK AT THE DEALER WHERE THEY WERE ABLE TO REPRODUCE THE ISSUE.

Going about 20-30 miles an hour. I recieved a warning message to check my power steering. I had lost all power steering, but I was able to pull off the side of the road, turn my truck off and back on and everything was good.

2 times in the last month my power steering has turned off while driving straight on the highway at approximately 60 MPH, other alerts pop up on my dashboard but I have been so focused on safely trying to get off the road I dont know what they are. When I restart the vehicle the steering seems to work again.
