I was merging on to the expressway and my truck kept going to the left into traffic towards a concrete median. I turned my wheel to the right to try to avoid it and started to spin out and went back to the right side of the expressway which was four lanes wide and slammed into the guardrail. After the wreck I noticed my ABS light was on I-??m not sure if it came on as I was merging onto the expressway.

Electronic power steering assist malfunction and failure. The power steering went out as i was driving with my girlfriend in the truck and it has been stuck on the side of the road in ocean city new jersey. The problem was confirmed by millevois auto repair in ocean city. There was no warning. It says the recall was serviced before hand but it is obviously still failing. i don-??t have the money to pay the $3000 to get it fixed and towed on my own for something that was a manufacturing issue. please help me. please have the recall fixed.

Power steering is going out then comes back every so often. It tells me service power steering drove with care. I have had it checked and they shops computer won-??t let them into the power steering window. The engine is reading no codes, however power steering continues to go in and out. I seen a recall on some of the year models but it says mine is not. However I am having that exact problem.

Steering assist disabled comes on while driving and Steering locks up and shuts everything off, and then starts back. Very Very dangerous on the road not knowing where or when you're not in control of the vehicle. When this occurs engine stops, no brakes.

My power steering intermittently stops working while driving and turning. I did some research online and saw that this year make and model vehicle has an open recall for this exact problem although when I called GM recall they said my vehicle was not on the recall list. I would like to be added to the recall list so I don't get in an accident that could've been avoided.
