When attempting to turn left at an intersection the steering wheel stopped turning at about the 10 O'clock position, jerked hard to the right out of my hands. I braked and tried to turn again, the steering did this repeatly for five attempts. I turned the ignition off, waited about 10 seconds then restarted the truck. The steering then worked normally. My wife and I have experienced this type of episode 5 times between us. This truck does have the lane monitoring system and I have experienced the gentle tug of the steering wheel and vibration in the seat. This is not like that. This is an intermittent complete loss of steering control. This has happened at very low speed when making a left turn from a stopped position and it has happened at very low continuous speed such as entering a driveway. It has never happened when turning right. Sometimes it corrects itself, sometime you have to turn off the ignition and reboot it. I have given it to the dealer for evaluation. Their initial reaction was that they don't know what the problem is. Fortunately no damage to ourselves or others, but the potential is there. That is why I felt I should report this.

I have a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado. Once you get to 70-80 miles per hour it shakes pretty bad. I noticed others have experienced same things. They even named it the "Chevy shake". I just wanted to file a complaint so it could be added to the list of others

Ongoing safety issue...vehicle looses power, steering, braking, all other devices inactive, driving safety of occupants and others relevant when driver has no control due to defect. Chevy mechanics believe might be steering system such as ignition and locking elements, due to grinding noise before vehicle looses power and other parts lock up, Chevy techs thought might be race and pinion, might be electrical, might be whatever, they are unable to conclusively determine this critical safety defect in truck. Chevy techs have commented they are skeptical about letting anyone drive until resolved. Investment hugh with loss of use and finding other transportation. Why own it. GM needs to reimburse cost and replace. This is a significant liability. All aspects of non functioning parts don't generate error codes, and this incident has reoccurred over eight times in five days. This requires action by GM, where is it. Loaner vehicle not sufficient replacement for investment. Safety issue commenced on March 16, towed multiple times, been to two dealers, initial more than 200 miles from home, and current dealer where purchased with 25 miles of home.

Upon accelerating after traffic light, power fails, steering locks following grinding clanking sound in steering column. Also occurs same symptoms in attempt to move gear shift to park position. More frequent doing this procedure. Key moves by itself to originally input position in process of locking steering. This defect occurred eight times within five days, requiring towing, and being stranded. Vehicle delivered by tow service to nearest Chevy dealer on first few failures, vehicle returned to original dealer 230 miles away near owners home at cost of owner. Original dealer believes defect is potentially lignition locking system, attempting to verify at this period. This major safety issue of loosing power and systems locking up jeopardize occupants and others lives.again occurrences were at very low speed or in motion of parking.

While in motion in city at intersection, stopped for light, proceeded forward but steering locked, brakes, and ignition switch inactive, a grinding clicking noise heard just as began accelerating before safety failure. Truck towed to a dealer, unable to determine cause, released truck, problem occurred again in three days causing vehicle to be towed again. Mechanic unsure, no errors codes, however sounded similar to early recall by GM for ignition switch torque problems, but noise could be per mechanic something in rack and pinion or rotary vene pump. Dealer not committing and suggest to drive. Safety for lives is concern in this matter with lack of electrical, steering, brakes, and ignition control by driver.

Steering stiff in cold and never gets better after vehicle warms up. Anytime below 5 degrees F. I have had it in and they have replaced the whole electronic steering system with no help to the issue. I have read other forums where others are having the same issue. At slow speeds requires two hands to turn vehicle. Very dangerous if in a panic situation. Dealer said there is nothing else they can do. I live in mn and have had other GM pickups (1999,2010,2013) with no such issues in the cold weather.

Electric steering failed at highway speeds multiple times during a long trip, when new. The steering, when out, was very hard to steer but did not lock up or cause any sudden truck movements. The dealership had to replace the electric steering on the new truck. No more issues afterwards.

I purchased a 2016 Silverado 1500 4WD ltz crew on February 08, 2016. On February 20, 2016 with just 312 new miles driven on the new vehicle, the electric power steering stopped working while driving 60 miles per hour going West on the southern state parkway middle lane in nassau county New York. With no power steering on a six thousand pound truck, I had to struggle with turning the steering wheel away from other vehicle on the parkway and exit the parkway without causing an accident. I immediately call for road side serviced and the truck was towed and return to the dealer for service. During the investigation, the Chevrolet service department located in valley stream, NY stated on February 24, 2016 that the entire electric rack opinion for the power steering was defected when it was installed during the assembly by the manufacture. The 2016 Silverado 1500 truck was purchased new on 2/08/2016, and I have concerns that other mechanical parts in the vehicle may be defected and the vehicle may be unsafe to drive.
