This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
While driving and making turns made a really loud popping noise, took to a mechanic and the rack and pinion are coming apart. Done research and found bulletin 14204B and it is exactly what is going on with my truck but the VIN doesn't come back. I have kids and this is not anything to take lightly per the recall and the mechanic. If it is same as what recall is why isn't this truck included"??" took to local chvrolet dealership and they even said same thing.
Vehicle has several electrical issues. First, power steering fails at low speed turns. Then, the car occasionally loses all electrical power (screens, gauges, lights, starter, garage door opener) while parked and off. Then last week, it lost all electrical power at 70+ mph on the highway. Lost power steering, all screens turned off, gauges when to zero, etc. This lasted for about 3 seconds and then everything came back on. Many warning lights including power steering, traction control, parking assist disabled. This also gave a 4WD service warning. Now, I get the service 4WD warning every time I start the vehicle and it will not go into 4 wd.
The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. While reversing out of the driveway, the contact heard a thump sound and the electric power steering (eps) failed. The failure occurred after the vehicle was taken to great river Chevrolet GMC (264 devereux dr, natchez, ms 39120). The vehicle was taken to the dealer and kept for a month. The contact paid to have the rack and pinion replaced. The contact requested the used rack and pinion, but the dealer would not give him the part. The contact had to pay for the repairs even though he had a recall notice for NHTSA campaign number: 17V414000 (steering). The dealer stated that the rack and pinion was not related to the recall and charged the contact for the repair. The failure mileage was 62,000.
Power steering fails when going slow and trying to turn. The voltage indicator goes way down into minus, then goes back to normal. Dealer said it was rack and pinion. They replaced it and it failed again two days later. I believe the electric steering piwer assist system is at fault.
About 1 week ago I took my vehicle in for service for an unrelated issue. While it was there, they performed the power steering safety recall. After going to town on February 24th I started my truck to return home and the dic showed a message which said, 'service power steering, drive with care.' I now have no power steering and it is extremely dangerous to operate the vehicle.
The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that the steering icon flashed and a lock indicator displayed. Also, the brake light flashed and various unknown warning indicators flickered on the instrument panel. The contact stated that the steering seized when the steering wheel was turned to the left. In addition, the brakes failed to function properly and excessive force had to be applied to the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. Team lake road auto sales (13988 conneaut lake rd, conneaut lake, pa 16316, (814) 382-9336) was notified of the failures and kept the vehicle for over three weeks. A loaner vehicle was provided. The contact had not received any specific technical guidelines regarding diagnosis and repairs. The dealer released the vehicle back to the owner and the failures recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer and a second loaner vehicle was provided; however, the vehicle was returned without being repaired. The dealer indicated that the vehicle was previously serviced before it was purchased per NHTSA campaign number: 17V414000 (steering). The contact informed the dealer several times that the remedy failed, but did not receive any recourse. The vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: PE18012 (service brakes, hydraulic, service brakes). The manufacturer had not issued any brake system recalls for this year, make, and model vehicle and the VIN was not included in the four electrical system recalls and two steering recalls. The manufacturer was notified of the multiple failures. The failure mileage was not available.
The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. While driving various speeds, the steering wheel failed and was difficult to control. There were no warning indicators illuminated.

The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 72,000.
When driving truck and turning the steering gets hard and takes a few seconds to control it again. Also when I turn left or right driving slow the power steering gets hard and causes stereo screen to turn off for a few seconds, and causes headlights to dim. Also the interior lights and dash lights dim. It's very unsafe when turning, can almost lose complete control for steering jerking. Not only does this happen when vehicle is in motion but also when truck is stationary.
The powers steering goes out when pulling into a parking space. The car has completely turned off while waiting to make a left turn, seems to be effected by turning the blinkers on ", it's like there is a complete glitch in the electrical system " the electric dash comes on and off & yesterday the truck would not start.... I tried it multiple times and finial after 15 minutes it turned over and no more issues yesterday.
: the power steering system temporarily fail without warning during operation, causing the amount of effort needed to turn the wheel to fluctuate dramatically during the maneuver as the power steering system cycles on and off. The issue is especially prevalent during low-speed maneuvers and can be accompanied by the failure of other systems such as the radio, stability control, door-lock cycling, air condition or cruise control. This happens randomly, when I'm parking or making a turn. I almost crashed into a vehicle in mid turn as I lost power steering and the vehicle shut off. I put it in park and restarted the truck.
Truck shifts bad, almost like the gears are slipping usually seems to happen around 3rd-4th gear. The truck also vibrates at 35 mph up to highway speeds. This all happens when driving.
Stabilitrak light kicks on and off, steering wheel locks up and shudders when turning at low speeds, headlights and dashlights blink like the trucks about to lose power. Searching online it looks like there is a device bulletin that fixes these issues, but I shouldnt have to pay for a safety and common issue with this truck. Pit5405A is the bulletin number.
Headlights flicker, radio head unit flickers, error messages (service stablitrak, traction control off, reduced steering assist) doors occasionally will lock and unlock and then truck will shut off all together. Steering wheel randomly jerk out of your hands. Somebody will end up dead if this issue is not fixed, and recalled. Very common through my research in 2014 Silverado/Sierra's.
