The dashboard showed an error message regarding the power steering. I took it to my mechanic and they put it on the computer to scan. It came back with 2 error codes. The first one was DTC C0569 46. The second one was DTC C0460 00/4B. I was told the dealership would have to address the issue. They told me these codes were not covered by the recalled part they replaced. The car has approximately 81,500 miles. There doesn't appear to be a leak. At this time the steering is working. There is no stiffness or squealing. This first popped up on the screen about a month ago. I've been concerned about driving it until I know more.

Vehicle has a sudden loss of power steering exactly described in recall reference number 14V153000 yet this vehicle is not covered by this recall. The EPS motor controller unit has failed. Two independent service centers have confirmed this. It's concerning that if this vehicle was manufactured 6 months previously it would be covered for the same exact issue. no warning lamps came on until after the vehicle had a loss of power steering. it displayed service power steering in the message center after the failure. The failed unit is being replaced by a independent service center and will be available for inspection.

Power steering is disabled while driving sometimes. In the past few weeks, right after starting the car, "POWER STEERING" will appear on the drivers information center, and the steering wheel will not turn unless using much more than normal force. Turning off and restarting the car eventually returns steering wheel to normal operation. Within the past few days the power steering has been disable while actively driving. Vehicle will start with no issues relating to power steering, but after a random time period while driving the "POWER STEERING" warning is displayed again. This has caused an immediate and unexpected return to fully manual steering while driving; much more force is needed to turn the steering wheel. This could be dangerous if in the middle of a turn power steering is disabled. Vehicle has not been inspected, yet.

Power Steering goes out without warning. I was driving my vehicle and the power steering stopped working, making it extremely difficult to maneuver my vehicle around the many curves on the road I live on at the regulated 30mph speed limit. I parked my vehicle and started it an hour later and the power steering was now working. I have not driven the vehicle for 4 days due to the loss of power steering at any given moment.

On 08/05/2020, my car was serviced by our local GM dealership to have 3 open recalls fixed. They replaced my steering torque sensor and power steering assist motor due to the power steering going out at random. As of April 2022, I am once again having power steering issues. The steering wheel shakes back and forth, and occasionally will throw an error code and stop working. This requires me to pull over, shut the car off, and restart the car several times while manually moving the steering wheel to get it to work without throwing an error code. I used my own scan tool to diagnose the problem, and I'm getting a code "C0545-00 Steering Wheel Torque Input Sensor". This would be the same sensor that was supposedly replaced less than two years ago. I contacted the dealership, and they stated that they do not guarantee recall work, and that all services are performed "as-is". I contacted General Motors, and they want me to pay a $100 diagnostics fee to tell me what I already know, along with parts and labor for the repairs. The customer service representative rudely explained that the NHTSA is responsible for recall work (which doesn't sound right). Because this is a major safety concern, I don't feel that I should have to pay out of pocket considering this was already a recall that they were forced to address.

About two weeks ago, my steering wheel locked up while driving on the expressway. Luckily I was in the far right lane and was able to pull over without causing a car accident. Once pulled over, I shut off the vehicle and called my mom. While on the phone, she told me to try to start it up again. This time, the steering wheel turned with no problem. Hastily, I drove home. I have made arrangements to take it to the nearest auto shop working on power steering problems.

Power steering has been going out all of a sudden. The steering wheel locks up and is difficult to turn. My safety and the safety of others around me was put at risk because I cannot easily turn the wheel and respond to a situation quickly if I needed to. I basically have to drive in a straight line and not turn. Turning the car on and off seems to help for a little while but the problem still continues. I have not taken the car to be looked at by anyone.The words "power steering" flashed across the radio. This first started to happen when the wheel started to lock up a few days ago. The vehicle has a separate issue were the seat belt monitor does not work for the drivers side. It dings even if I am buckled up.

Without warning power steering goes out. I was only backing up down the driveway. Very diffucult to steer vehicle manually. Power assist steering module, was already replace +/- 5 years ago. But when I restart vehicle acts normal, but then just fails without warning. Hesitant to drive car now, due to unpredictabilty of steering. No way, I would let one on my kids drive this vehicle.

- Toledo, OH, USA

Was driving to town, and while going down a hill, and while on a curved section of road, chime came on, power steering warning appeared on radio screen, car began going straight instead of following the curve. I forced the steering wheel to the right and regained control of the car. Turned car around and drove back home. Car was difficult to steer. Steering works now, but failed several times while moving the car in our driveway, this past winter. I know many folks have the same problem with electric assist power steering, but they don't report it.
